Hi, me again 😛

You will be seeing me a lot on this forum during my internship XD

So here’s the question:

Right now I have an 5x5 field in an array.  
I’m now searching (for what I thought was easy) a command to check the indexes around the currently clicked index. To put it to script:  
myArray.[clickedIndex -1] is emptyBlock or myArray.[clickedIndex +5] is emptyBlock etc.

I’m sure this is not the correct script, but google refuses to cooperate with me.
