Anyone else think matricies would be a good idea?

...?

As in 2d arrays? Got those.

na like one that can have columns and rows like this:

[0,0,0,0,0 <row 1
0,0,0,0,0 <row 2
0,0,0,0,0 <row 3
0,0,0,0,0] <row 4

Really? Are you sure your not thinking of string arrays or variable arrays? How you do it then? I will try and find it in the newfeatures things.

You can simulate them but it's icky. We should get multidimensional arrays and functions to which we can pass them. Then I can make 3D rotation matrices without writing a million lines of code =D

Yea that would be nice, right now youd have to do rows right next to each other then use a forumla like ((rownumber*itemsineachrow)-itemsineachrow)+iteminthatrow
I am doing that right now in one of my scripts and it is very inefficient
