I hate em with such a huge passion. Would it be possible to get a Case/Select type of construct added to LSL? This would smooth over so many ugly code blocks it's ridiculous.  My code gets chunky with listen msg calls and such and a streamlined construct like this would make the code oh so mych more readable and modifiable. Thanks |

If's and ForS are gods tools! Cases are soo restrictive! But sure if it makes your live eaiser.

Yes please for the love of god and all thats good and holy get us a switch - case construct fast!
And real arrays, with multidimensional abilities. I dont need them to be fancy polymorphic thingies, just plain old direct access arrays, as far as data structures go they are probably the most easy to use and fastest too.

Yes, A R R A Y S ! ! ! !
Or at least an llUpdateListAt(list src, integer index) call or something, so I don't have to futz around inserting and deleting and whatnot.

From: someone Or at least an llUpdateListAt(list src, integer index) call or something, so I don't have to futz around inserting and deleting and whatnot. Yea! Something like: llReplaceSubList(list dest, list src, integer index, integer size) dest : the array with data to be replaced src : the data being inserted index : where to start the replace size : the number of elements to replace. I place arrays as a higher priority than case statements, personally. Case statements can be worked around reasonably well with if else. Its not as pretty but works pretty straight forward. Lists are extremely different than arrays and lack a lot of functionality (multi-dimensions for example) that can't be easily worked around. Lists also have extra overhead (type data per element) that an array wouldn't need.
