Type with an Array Field

From my (albeit limited) look around, it doesn't appear possible to create a field within a type that is an array, e.g.

Type theType
Field x(50)
End Type

solves nothing, nor does

Type theType
Field x
End Type

a = new TheType
Dim a\x(50)

Can it be done? A number of objects in my game have a list of strings that go with it. Rather than dimension a large number from the beginning and then have to keep track of them, what's object is using what list, what lists are free, etc. I'd like the simpler method of creating the list when the object is created, storing it with all the other fields of the type.

Can it be done?

You need to use square brackets:

Type theType
Field x[50]
End Type

They can only be one-dimensional though.

Please don't make the mistake of relying on them for use in any type you are going to have more then say a 100 of them, they take AGES to free. (like 5 to 30 seconds for a 1000 depending on their size/the ammount of arrays)

That has been fixed in the newest release:
