are multi dim struct arrays supported in Verge? I tried making one but it seemed to not like that
here is what I did
DWES_usable dwes_useables[DWES_TOTAL_USABLE_GROUPS][DWES_TOTAL_USABLES_IN_GROUP];

You have to have second dimension inside the struct for it to work, which I know is painful. You're allow multi-dimensions declared in your struct.
struct DWES_usable
{
string name[DWES_TOTAL_USABLES_IN_GROUP];
string desc[DWES_TOTAL_USABLES_IN_GROUP];
string effect_func[DWES_TOTAL_USABLES_IN_GROUP];
};
DWES_usable dwes_usables[DWES_TOTAL_USABLE_GROUPS];
//----

or you could work around that by
int DWES_name[99][99];
int DWES_desc[99][99];
int DWES_effect[99][99];
or whatever.

What you did is permissible. What overkill suggested is not. What is the error message you're choking on?

dwes_main.vc(343): Expecting ";" ,but got a "[" instead
When I comment out that array it compiles fine.
(btw, the struct is a bit too complex for overkills suggestion)

no, I'm pretty sure overkill is right. And its true, you can't declaire multi-dimentional arrays with struct defined identifiers
hail the fancy lingo!

What I suggested was merely a workaround that would compile. Not the ideal solution, just a working solution, until the dev team adds the support.

Are you sure that compiles? Last I checked, you could not put arrays inside structs... although I haven't tried in quite some time.

Arrays inside structs work perfectly. I just tested it.

Yep you can have arrays inside structs. Just not multidimensional ones. Don't ask me, I just work here.

odd I have them and the compiler didn't complain will there be a problem?

Ah, crap.
Well, time to recode some of Sully. I was convinced that was impossible, so I did a few instances of:
character.slot1
character.slot2
character.slot3
character.slot4
...
...but first I'll contninue finishing off this blasted docs section. So gaffes like this will be eliminated.

Multi-dimensional arrays work fine for me inside structs. Just you can't have multi-dimensional arrays OF structs.
struct enm_t
{
int ai[TOTAL_ENTITIES];
int x0[TOTAL_ENTITIES], y0[TOTAL_ENTITIES];
int x100[TOTAL_ENTITIES], y100[TOTAL_ENTITIES];
int xspeed[TOTAL_ENTITIES], yspeed[TOTAL_ENTITIES];
int var[10][TOTAL_ENTITIES];
int dir[TOTAL_ENTITIES], pause[TOTAL_ENTITIES];
int hide[TOTAL_ENTITIES];
int dmg[TOTAL_ENTITIES];
};
enm_t enemy;
EDIT: Realized I bolded the wrong line. :(

apparently I'm smarter than I remember, then! But yeah that makes sense. I had originally thought that I HAD allowed multi-dim arrays.. then grue asked me about it, and I looked at the code and thought it was only setup for one-dimensional arrays, but you're right, that only applies to the struct array. It allocates the first dimension for the struct and the rest are applied to the variable.

So... are there any plans to allow multi-dimensional arrays of structs in the future?

It's possible, but practically speaking, it won't happen for a while. I'm planning to release a netcode build tonight, then after that my next task is going to be adding floats, which will be a sizeable endeavor, and after that I still have a number of things I'd like to add before I do things like multidim struct arrays, since it's such an easy thing to get around.
So basically it'll probably eventually be added, but its not going to be soon so I wouldn't plan on it or wait for it or anything.

If floats are coming I'll be very, very happy

Floats + netcode = gasmic!

Whoa, if there is going to netcode, first dibs on making v3IRC!
