I'm using an array to store a list of current objects in my game - this is added to (player drops an item) and taken from (player picks up an item).

type ob ox oy oz otype endtype
dim objects() as ob

but using

array insert at bottom objects()

seems to corrupt the previous slot? any clues?

Yes, it has been mention before on the other forums...
I prefer to use my LinkList plug-in myself...

i wouldn't use that... but outline the Max objects from the get go - not to make it easier, but if you give the user unlimited items then this means they can have upto around 4.5 billion

should set this up with something sensible, remember that a value unused is 0 and takes up nothing

so like;

type weapon_t
arrow as boolean
bullet as boolean
grenade as boolean
endtype

type food_t
bread as boolean
apple as boolean
coke as boolean
endtype

type magic_t
fire as boolean
water as boolean
wind as boolean
endtype

type item_t
weapon as weapon_t
food as food_t
magic as magic_t
endtype

dim gPlayer(256) as item_t
load array cType(255)

then you check like

for index = 0 to 255
if gPlayer(256).weapon.cType(index) = 0
item = "nothing"
else
item = cType(index)
endif
next index

etc...
etc...

you just store the names within an array for what you want and hey presto
that might be right ... lol i honestly can't remember
