the error is not in firstCrate.myName = "crate1"
but in firstCrate =  #allCrates[1]

what is #allCrates[1] ?
if allCrates is a table #allCrates is number of elements in it.
so not sure what you are expecting to get from #allCrates[1].
is it a multidimensional table ?

have you declared firstCrate somewhere ?
just try local firstCrate =  #allCrates[1]

Thanks for the response..

it's an array defined as:

1

        local allCrates = {} 

will you be creating multiple crates in a loop ?

if you do like this

1 2	local firstCrate =  allCrates[1] firstCrate.myName = "crate1"

notts_forest_,

the problem is the first line itself, even if you defined it as local.. or global.

1 2	firstCrate =  #allCrates[1] firstCrate.myName = "crate1"
