Is it possible to just add a value to the existing? here is my current script: foreach ($newarray as $name) {

rand(1,$name->GetInitiative())); } // sort array by ranking (initiative) sort($newarray,SORT_NUMERIC); can I change the $newarray[$name] to something to represent the current element and just add the value to it? I might be able to work around it then

That's not the problem. Your problem is that you are trying to use an object ($name) as the key of an array. You can't do this. Array keys must be a scalar value, that is to say a 'normal' value (essentially a string or a number). The object in $name probably has some unique value that represents that particular instance. Use that instead of the object itself. -Stut
