Changing single array value

[SyntaxError]

I've tried to change a single value of an array like this:

Code: Select all

scene.my.sample_array = [1,1,1,1];
scene.my.sample_array(1) = 0;


Did not work.

I know instead I could type:

Code: Select all

scene.my.sample_array = [1,0,1,1]

But with an array 50 values long this takes time.


So isn't there a shorter way?

No.

The first one should work?!

Here, Grady tries to explain the closest thing possible to what you want.
Or, maybe you want something more like:

Code: Select all

scene.my.sampleArray = [scene.my.sampleArray0, scene.my.sampleArray1, scene.my.sampleArray2, scene.my.sampleArray3]

But I support the suggestion!
color(3) = 0

Thats pretty complicated. I would have started to try this myself.... Maybe for hours - so thx!

I don't have to understand it, if I know how to use it.

Every single programming language is able to handle this problem in a simple way.... but thyme

color(3)=0
is not possible. you must type in the whole array, even when it looks like
color=[color(0),color(1),color(2),0]
then
(what is the same as color(3)=0)

As I said, I support the suggestion!

[hiltropper]

do you mean for upcoming versions?

[Someone Else]

That's the only place a suggestion can actually happen, isn't it?

[hiltropper]

i was confused because thats not the suggestion forum

[Someone Else]

When somebody asks how to do something that is impossible, I always like to turn that topic into a suggestion, as you have just seen.

nice idea
