I just started using verge, read the tutorials and when I tried to test some stuff, I found the following problem:

int numbers[15]; //makes a list of 15 integers
string names[7]; //this one is a list of 7 strings
numbers[0] = 42; //this sets the first member of 'numbers' to 42.
numbers[14] = 3; //this sets the last member of 'numbers' to 3.

(this is straight copypaste from the manual)

when I try to run this code, I get this error:

system.vc(3): Expecting ",", but got "[" instead
(line 3 is the first line of the code I posted)

what is wrong with the code?

void autoexec() 
{
int numbers[15]; //makes a list of 15 integers
string names[7]; //this one is a list of 7 strings
numbers[0] = 42; //this sets the first member of 'numbers' to 42.
numbers[14] = 3; //this sets the last member of 'numbers' to 3.
while (!b3)
	{
		RectFill(0, 0, ImageWidth(screen), ImageHeight(screen), 0, screen);
				PrintCenter(ImageWidth(screen)/2, ImageHeight(screen)/2, screen, 0, string(numbers[0]));
		ShowPage();
	}
	Exit("Bye!");
}

there you go

and all variables are local by default?

how do I declare local/global vars? (the manual isn't very clear about this)


EDIT: problem solved. thanks guys.

Okay, updated the docs on arrays and structs a little:

http://verge-rpg.com/docs/the-verge-3-manual/arrays
http://verge-rpg.com/docs/the-verge-3-manual/structs

And the scoping stuff on the variables page was made a little more clear (actually saying how to declare a global vs local variable, instead of just saying what one is without much elaboration):

Hopefully that helps!
