Hey all , I have a problem and so far I haven’t been able to solve it myself or with the help of teh internet, so I am asking you for help 🙂

the problem is that I have this variable (the \* is a number, \_root.mob doesn’t really excist)

\_root.mob\*

and I have another one

\_root.mobnumber

so what I want is that the name of the \_root.mob\* gets changed for example

\_root.mobnumber = 13;  
\_root.mob(\_root.mobnumber) = 1;

and as a result it will be \_root.mob13 = 1;

I know this isn’t the right code but I have tried it in so many ways now and im getting confused and stuff, im pretty sure its not hard to solve for you guys 🙂

Thanks in advance
