I think you mean lists. Types are just like varibles in BMax meaning you can just do this:

Type myType
	
	Function Create:myType()
		
		Local newType:myType = New myType
		Return newType
		
	End Function
	
	Method New()
		
		x% = Rand(0, 100)
		y% = Rand(0, 100)
		
	End Method
	
	Field x%, y%
	
End Type

Global myTypeList:TList = CreateList()
myTypeList.AddLast myType.Create()

' Type cast
Print myType(myTypeList.Last()).x + ", " + myType(myTypeList.Last()).y

' Convert to an array
Local myTypeArray:Object[] = ListToArray(myTypeList)

' No need for type cast
Print myType(myTypeArray[0]).x + ", " + myType(myTypeArray[0]).y

hope this helps a little.
