Why doesn't Blockland have foreach?

[Zeblote]

They aren't actual arrays though.
How an actual array would work:
$Variable = [0,5,3];
This would create $Variable as a pointer to an array, and set $Variable.length to 3, $Variable[0] to 0, etc.
$Variable[1] = 6; would then change it to [0,6,3]. Without the array existing, it would create $Variable as a pointer to the array, and set the value(s) accordingly.
This doesn't happen in TS.
When you do $Variable[1] = 6; $Variable is still null. There is no determinable length to it. All you're doing is actually setting $Variable1 = 6;
Example:
%x = 1;
%y = 2;
$Variable[%x,%y] = 1;
This is just doing
$Variable1_2 = 1;

There is no way to tell the engine how many things are in the 'array' when you use a foreach, in TorqueScript.

Just have
foreach(%a in $asdf[])

work like
for(%a = $asdf[%i = 0]; %a !$= ""; %a = $asdf[%i++])

and it will be just fine for most cases.

Basically what Zeblote said. It obviously doesn't exist, so if it were to exist it would just have to be made in a way that copes with pointers. Create the function to work with $Variable[] instead of $Variable.

We really don't need more syntactical sugar. We got plenty.

I do, bug off.
