nothing at all with a prefix is reserved...this.stars is probably just used highly in star scripts.

check out commands.rtf, it has 'em

[Falcor]

i use this.dots or this.points for showing things like that. =\

[Faheria_GP2]

i use things like

this.starx and this.stary

[adam]

I would use.

stars[this.i]
stars[this.i+1]
stars[this.i+2]
stars[this.i+3]

more or less vars depending on how many stars. and what they are supposed to do.

Actually, I'll correct myself.

Nothing with a this., client. or server. prefix is reserved. (players[i]. is a prefix)

what about abs?

this.abs should work fine as a variable name, but abs is a command name, and therefore can't be used as a variable.

ACTUALLY, it CAN be used as a variable.

Check out the old boomerang script, it uses abs as a variable, and it works fine. It'll trigger an error in the editor, but abs is actually abs(), a function, so it's different than abs, a variable you could use.
