Multiplayer variables

Okay, at the risk of seeming utterly stupid I'm stuck.

I understand the concept of defining user variables in an array.(i.e. health[userid]), but if I try to reference that with QDK it tells me that I can't use brackets ([]). So, I guess my question is, can somebody tell me the exact sytax used to add/change variables,(properties) on a player in QDK.

Sorry to seem dense, but I'm still learning.

Ok at the risk of me sounding stupid (as i have very little Qnet exp) i think you make variables that are used by everyone Local variables.
Don't hold me to that but im pretty sure though.

You're right that QDK brings up a warning when you try to set a variable with an array index. However, you can dismiss this just by clicking OK. It's because the error checking code isn't as clever as it should be! I will put this on my list of things to do for the next version.

Okay. Cool. I'm sorry. I assumed that ignoring the warning would be a bad thing. lol. Okay. Thank you very much.
