You could build a type list. Each time something moves, post it's old co-ords into it, with a flag stating either insert or remove occupied status.

The program will search through this type list afterwards and make the nesessary changes.


Type postbox
   field x,y
   field flag ; 0 for remove occupied status. 1 for mark as occupied.
End Type

p.postbox = new postbox
p\x = arrayx
p\y = arrayy
p\flag = 0

Something like that?

Then, when it comes to process it:

For p.postbox = each postbox
   if p\flag = 0 then
      array(p\x,p\y) = <mark as empty>
   elseif p\flag = 1 then
      array(p\x,p\y) = <mark as occupied>
   end if
   delete p.postbox
Next
