So I define a new object as examplelist[1], but I get an 'Expected end of statement' whenever I try to do something like this: examplelist[1].Move(locate(1,1,1)), but if I take the index off and leave it as examplelist.Move(locate(1,1,1)) it doesn't error out. Can I Move() a list index, if so how because this isn't working.

The array[n].func() syntax doesn't work in DM. What exactly are you trying to do?

I'm trying to change the icon file of the entire list of objects, but I also need to individually move them all. So I just need a way to move the instance of the object, that's only defined by the list.

"Move" how? There are multiple things you could mean here.

var/obj/O = list[1]
O.Move()


Or just use a for() loop.

Well I was trying to avoid that way because it will double my variable count, but I guess I'll have to, thanks for the help.

If it doubles your variable count, you're probably doing something wrong.
