standard object functions, problem with multidimensional array/list

[jake13jake]

I'm trying to make a rank database, and so I made a two dimensional string array.
this.arr[0] in this script would be acting as an account list
this.arr[1] would be acting as a sort value.

When I was going to sort, I wanted to remove the element and then simply reinsert it. However, something wasn't working so I made this test.

My problem is not being able to use these operators on an array dimension. It's not hard to script something to replace it at all, but it just seems like it should work to use these functions on a specific dimension of an array.

PHP Code:

  this.arr = {0,1,2,3},{4,5,6,7};
  player.chat = this.arr;
  this.arr[0].delete(1);
  this.arr[0].insert(1,8);
  player.chat = player.chat SPC this.arr;

Should be this.arr = {{0,1,2,3},{4,5,6,7}}; I guess ?

lol, you're right on that one. The other script that I changed because of this was more like:
arr=new[2]
arr[0].add(stuff)
arr[1].add(stuff)

A well known problem yes, it is not telling the 'parent' (next lower dimension) that it has been updated. That's why it's not displaying the right stuff when being output as string, will check if this can been fixed soon.

Okay, I was going to use parallel string lists in the first place, but GrowlZ was avid on using a 2xSize array for the ranks. I wonder how people are going to respond to a ranking system on Classic. Show the current top 10 ranks on the server perhaps (reset once a month).
