I am working on a trek game that uses 8x8 sector grids, and an 8x8 quadrant
grid.
I would like to make a sequence called map to contain all the info for the
quadrant 
and all the sectors inside each quadrant.  

Information for each quadrant will consist of it's x-y position and a flag
stating
if that quadrant has been explored yet. (0 = NO, 1 = YES)
Each sector will consist of an 8x8 grid and what type of object (if any) is
in 
each x-y location...

----------------------------------/  here's what I'm at so far

constant quadX = 1,    quadY = 2,      explored = 3,  
         sectorX = 4,  sectorY = 5,    object = 6, 
         fedship = 1,  klingship = 2,  starbase = 3,
         base = 4

sequence map

map = repeat(repeat({0,0,0}, --/  makes an 8x8 quadrant map 
     (repeat(repeat({0,0,0}, --/  makes an 8x8 sector map in each quadrant map
      8),8),8)),8)           --/  It don't work. I rewrite it and keep
getting  
                             --/  the same error message

ex. -  map[3][4][1][7][6][object] = fedship 
in quadrant 3,4-sector 7,6 the object is the players ship,
when the ship moves out of sector 7,6 and up to sector 3,6 then
  
   map[3][4][1][7][6][object] = 0
       and
   map[3][4][1][3][6][object] = 1

---------------------------------/ 

Well that's about what I'v been working on for this weekend. .   .
Anybody got any suggestions how to make it work???

thanks...
