I have a variable :var1 , it contains 10 numbers. All numbers are 0, and i give them value with triggers.
example:
var1.1=5
var1.5=7
Also i decrease all value with an aliase.
#alias aliase1 {#forall @var1 {do decrease thing}}

My problem is:
If i make the variable with #var var1 {0|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|0}
Then i cant give value by var1.1=2 type command
If i make the var1 variable by
#var var1 {}
var1.1=0
var1.2=0
... etc.
then i cant use @forall @var1

If i give value by #var var1 {0|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|0}
then type var1.1=2;var1.2=2;var1.3=2
then manually click on the variable, select text, delete all, and save, it still have all the values (2|2|2), and #forall @var1 {#show %1} still display 10*0

Does it work as intended?
How should i do these things for work correctly? I have zmud 7.11a

It looks like your confusing 2 data types, stringlist and database variables;
instead of using the syntax var1.1=5 ,which is used for assigning values to keys in a database variable,create your stringlist normally ie:
#var var1 {0|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|0} ,then assign values to specific positions using %replaceitem
example:
#var var1 {0|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|0}
#var var1 %replaceitem(5,3,@var1)
would assign 5 to the third item in the list.
