Array Search

[sssssssssss]

Ok, nother problem. So out of scripting.
I can't by the slightest remember how to search an array and find out if a var is in it. Example. Have an array of account names and want to do and if account name is in array, then allow.

PHP Code:

if (player.account in this.array)
  //Your script here 


That?

Also remember you can do this for caps-insensitive searching...

PHP Code:

if (array.index(@ player.account) > (- 1)) {
 // stuff
} 


array.index(obj) returns the index that the object is located at within the array.

those b them, ty.

Note that if you're working with a really, really big dataset, it may be faster to use something like a scripted binary search (I think there might be one in the code gallery, if not I could write one).

Searching Arrays, like REALLY searching them is possible in PHP, not sure if it works in GS2

Its only going to be 10 accounts max probably, ever.

Another question arises, how do i add to a server array? i know how to set, serverr.whatever = {whatever, whatever} but if I want to add and delete from that, how should I go about it?

Take a look at: http://graal.net/index.php/Creation/...ject_functions

You'll find these functions which may be of use to you:
obj.add(obj2) - adds an object to an array
obj.delete(index) - deletes the object from an array at the specified index
obj.remove(obj2) - removes the first instance of the specified object from the array
obj.replace(index,obj2) - replace the object at the specified index
obj.insert(index,obj2) - insert the object at the index without replacing other indexes
