2D array help needed

[AlmarM 19]

Hey,

I'm currently creating a little game with AutoIt, and it involves a 2D array.

Whenever I use this

Global $iX                = 25
Global $iY                = 25
Global $aArray            [$iX + 1][$iY + 1]

For $tmpY = 0 To $iY
    For $tmpX = 0 To $iX
        $aArray[$tmpY][$tmpX] = "blah"
    Next
Next

There is no problem, everything works.

But as soon as I want to resize the array like this

Global $iX                = 20 ; changed to 20
Global $iY                = 25
Global $aArray            [$iX + 1][$iY + 1]

For $tmpY = 0 To $iY
    For $tmpX = 0 To $iX
        $aArray[$tmpY][$tmpX] = "blah"
    Next
Next

It's gets an out or range error.

Same as this

Global $iX                = 25
Global $iY                = 20 ; changed to 20
Global $aArray            [$iX + 1][$iY + 1]

For $tmpY = 0 To $iY
    For $tmpX = 0 To $iX
        $aArray[$tmpY][$tmpX] = "blah"
    Next
Next

How do I fix this? The problem is that my For loops can only take 2 numbers wich are equal to each other.

EDIT: Typo

Just a typo i think: you need to swap the X and Y dimensions one way ...

Global $aArray [$iY + 1][$iX + 1]

or another ...

$aArray[$tmpX][$tmpY] = "blah"

at least, that cured the error for me when $iX <> $iY ...

Hmm, yeah thanks for that .

Brings new errors inside my game though.

Nice one for Coding Mistakes

dim $aArray[ $iX +1][ $iY +1]

For $tmpY = 0 To $iY

For $tmpX = 0 To $iX

$aArray[ $tmpY ][ $tmpX ] = ...

Next

Mayby my head wasn't really clear when writing this. Oh well.
