Thanks, this has been very interesting.

I try to create a enum structs to store player data like this , but fail

enum DATA {
    DATA1[33], 
    DATA2[33], 
};
//...
new g_PlayerData[33][DATA];
//...
public myfunction(id) {
    //...
    g_PlayerData[id][DATA1[iWeapon]]++;
}

get the error:
Error: Invalid subscript (not an array or too many subscripts)

can someone correct me ?

[Exolent[jNr]]

g_PlayerData[id][DATA1][iWeapon]++;

lets say i have

new const MAX_M = 10;
new const MAX_D = 5;

new g_multi[33][MAX_M][36];
new g_doors[33][MAX_M][MAX_D];

where g_multi will store some string and g_doors will store some integer

so i assumed this:

enum _:Somecells
{
    __multi[MAX_M][36],
    __doors[MAX_D]
}

new g_Somedata[33][Somecells];

but doing so gives me a 'error 001: expected token: "}", but found "["'for __multi[MAX_M][36] . how do i do this properly?

[Exolent[jNr]]

new g_multi[33][MAX_M][36];
new g_doors[33][MAX_M][MAX_D];

They are different for '36' and 'MAX_D', so that's all you need in the enum.

enum _:Somecells
{
    __multi[36],
    __doors[MAX_D]
}

new g_Somedata[33][MAX_M][Somecells]

[l4ulwtlln]

kind of wrote it wrong. what if they werent the same? for example

new g_multi[33][MAX_M][36];
new g_doors[33][MAX_D][3];

im asking because i want to use it in ArrayCreate(Somecells)

Is it possible to create an array of Array? For instance

PHP Code:

new Array:g_aArray[5]
for (new i = 0; i < sizeof g_aArray; i++)
    g_aArray[i] = ArrayCreate(1); 


The problem I'm having with this is that when I try something like:

PHP Code:

ArraySize(Array:g_aArray[0]) 


I'm forced to cast g_aArray as an array. Are there any solutions or should I just make the entire thing a cellarray? The reason it's predefined like this is because I know how many arrays I want to create, but not the size of the items in those arrays. I'm doing this for a list of command variations, so I know the number of commands, but not the number of variations that will end up being used.

Use it with an enum.

enum MyEnum 
{ 
    Array:blabla_1, 
    Array:blabla_2,
    etc..
};

new Array:g_aArray[ MyEnum ];

then :

for( new i = 0; MyEnum:i < MyEnum; i++ )
{
    g_aArray[ MyEnum:i ] = ArrayCreate( 1 );  
}

[...]

ArraySize( g_aArray[ blabla_1 ] )

Your current method is fine.

Are these 5 arrays specific for something?
Like could you name what they are?

If so, you could do this:

enum Arrays
{
    Array:Array1,
    Array:Array2,
    Array:Array3,
    Array:Array4,
    Array:Array5
};

new Array:g_aArrays[Arrays];

for (new Arrays:i; i < Arrays; i++)
    g_aArray[i] = ArrayCreate(1);  

// ..

new iSize = ArraySize(g_aArray[Array1]);

Oh, okay, I understand. I don't know why I didn't think of that. I've been going a lot of java lately, so the pawn enums are something a bit different (more useful in my opinion). I actually managed to do it without creating an enum type though. Handling it like

PHP Code:

enum _:Arrays
{
    Array:Array1,
    Array:Array2,
    Array:Array3,
    Array:Array4,
    Array:Array5
}; 


Worked just fine for me, and saves me casting in the initialization and assignment loops.
