Apparently there are still some "issues" with types.

However I've been using them in a similar way to you without any problems. The only difference is that my variables are all array types ( name(1).position.x ) or whatever.

Maybe if you try changing the mycube AS TCube to DIM mycube(1) AS TCube it would work.

And that way if you decide you want more than one cube you can always change the array size to 2+

yeah, the first one is the actual declare, the next one is a test assign that actually works and the third one in the function that never gets called is the one that fails.

I wanted to show that mycube.x worked outside a function but not inside it for some reason.

I tried your code and it still dosen't work.
Gives an error on that assign in the function.

The Arrays don't seem to have that problem.

so far i'm 0 - 3 with the demo
- bsp texture stretching
- dynamic arrays works partially
- Global Types in functions same as above

Guys, don't spend anymore time on this as i'm removing the demo from my system.

I'll sit tight and wait for the nice mailman to bring me my copy of DBP

How long does it usually take to arrive from order to your doorstep ?

I'm hoping that once patched to 1.3, most of the above will resolve itself.

Thanks,

errr no what raven meant (and I missed Doh!) is that inside you type, endtype you have declared x as float 3 times - thats not right you need to do it once (or change the other 2 to y and z as raven did.)

The error pointing at the function that didnt get called is probably cos everything inside a function is meant to be local - ie you cant use your mycube variable inside you function cos its not declared within that function. It works if you use a typed array (my solution) cos arrays are always global - ie you can use them inside an array.

Anyway my DPro took around a week to arrive (in the UK)

Doh indeed, my bad.

the actual code in my program is x y z, i got lazy while typing in this window and did copy and paste.
forgot to change the yz afterwards.

wow, one week is pretty good time.
i'll still put my expectations to 2-4 just incase.

Thanks
