Ok when i compile my critter...no problem

try to drop it in the terrarium and i get error:
Error Loading Assembly: you are calling a class that isnt allowed in ...[my function addy]

when i go to the function here is the offending code (actually simplified):

Dim pointXY As Point

Dim DirectionArray = New ArrayList(8)

For Each pointXY In DirectionArray

Next

If I comment out the For Next loop everything loads in fine.

What is goin on?

Anyone

That is strange.  I've used foreach several times in my bugs with no problems (albeit I'm using C#).  As a matter of fact, Locust iterates through an ArrayList of Points just like the code you posted.  Perhaps VB implements foreach differently than C#?  Using something Terrarium considers unsafe?  If it's just the use of foreach that's causing the problem, you can work around that fairly easily.  However, I suspect there's more to it than that.  I once experienced a similar problem.  I had compiled with the wrong version of the .Net libraries.  Perhaps that could be causing this?  Let me know what you find out.

Just a guess, but I think Terrarium might not like the name "DirectionArray".  (Maybe there's an internal class or property by that name.)  Try naming it something else.

thanks, but no go....for some reason it does not like the  for each loop, and I can not figure it out to save my life.
