I try to assign an array value to another array.
With AGKS we can create array groups, and to get the value we can use

+ Code Snippet


for a = 1 to myarraygroup.length   // array group in Scene Editor for sprites
    //code here
next a

//I want to assign the myarraygroup.length to another custom array variable wth the same value

global my array as integer[100]   

//But tried something like this, without any luck

global myarray as integer[myarraygroup.length]

//Even Tried
x = myarraygroup.length

global myarray as integer[x]

Any ideas
THanks

+ Code Snippet

MyArray1 as integer[10]

for x = MyArray1.length to 0 step -1
	MyArray1[x] = Random(1,20)
next

MyArray2 as integer[]
MyArray2.length = MyArray1.length

for x = MyArray2.length to 0 step -1
	MyArray2[x] = MyArray1[x]
next

do
	print(MyArray1[0]) //print the first entry in MyArray1 to see if it matches
	print(MyArray2[0]) // the first entry in MyArray2
	Print(ScreenFPS())
	Sync()
loop

You can just say
MyArray2 = MyArray1

Wow. I didn't know it could be done like that. That's a shortcut and a half.

Hi Guys

Thanks for the advice.
But I don't want to fill myarray2 with the values from myarray1

I just need to know the "size" of myarray1 and then make myarray2 the same size (Programmatically)

Currently I look in my.scene file, and see that myarray1 is 286 (For example)

So i my main.agk I want to make myarray2 the same "size" as myarray1. myarray2 will hold different values than myarray1.
Currently I do it manual
eg:

+ Code Snippet

//in the scene editor after the sprites has been added, myarray1 show 

global myarray1 as integer[286]  //286 represent all the sprites in the group

//In my main.agk I manual type in

global myarray2 as integer [286]
global myarray3 as integer[286]

//I want to change this for example...

global myarray2 as integer[myarray1.sizeof]
global myarray3 as integer[myarray1.sizeof]

That was answered in the first post by Imagination Engineer.
To repeat what he said, do this:

+ Code Snippet

global myarray1 as integer[286]  //286 represent all the sprites in the group

global myarray2 as integer[]
global myarray3 as integer[]

size = myarray1.length
mayarray2.length = size
mayarray3.length = size
