What I'm having trouble with is taking a:

MyVar[100]

and integrating it with a type like so:

MyVar[100]

MyVar:Basic = New Basic

MyVar[0].x = 1000
MyVar[50].z = 25

Type Basic
     Field x#,y#,z#
End Type

That's what I'm trying to do. I think I'm close but just can't quite get it. I've done this in Blitz3D but it's not the same in BMax obviously. Any help is appreciated.

EDIT
Seems you have to go:

MyVar[0] = New Basic

I hate it when I post and then answer my own question a few mintues later. :(

Global MyVar:Basic[100]

For Local a:Int = 0 To Len(MyVar)-1
	MyVar[a] = New Basic
Next

MyVar[0].x = 1000
MyVar[50].z = 25

Type Basic
     Field x#,y#,z#
End Type

Create an array of new instances:

Type Basic
    Field x#, y#, z#
EndType

Global MyVar:Basic[100] = New Basic[100]

MyVar[0].x = 1000
MyVar[50].z = 25
