Code:

        var/Name = ""
        var/Chakra = 0
        var/Taken = 0
        var/Seal = 0
        

var/Bijuu[9]

world/New()
    var/i   
    for(i=9,i<=9,i++)
        Bijuu[i] = new/mob/Bijuu()
        if(i==1)
            Bijuu[i].Name = "Shukaku"
            Bijuu[i].Chakra = 50000

Unfortunately, the . operator doesn't currently support being applied to anything other than a variable. The compiler has no way to know if a given list item is a certain type, either, so it can't apply the type-checking properties of the . operator.

You'll just have to typecast, like so:
var mob/Bijuu/bijuu = new
Bijuu[i] = bijuu
bijuu.Name = "Shukaku"
bijuu.Chakra = 5e4 // aka 50000

another problem following this code

Aug 6 2016, 11:42 am
 
if(Brand == 1 && Shukaku == 1 && Bijuu[1].Taken==0)





this keeps giving me an error

Bijuu[1].Taken==0


This is not valid. You must create a variable pointing to Bijuu[1] to achieve this.

Kaiochao already explained this though.
