Hello Patrick, the [+x] syntax in scripts was added only to replicate the old field-offsetting parsing/generating modes (which in turn originate from the time when libsynthesis had no array fields at all) in the script language.

Looking at line 3697ff in scriptcontext.cpp, I'd say it should be possible to allow a second bracket. In the end, it boils down to calculating varidx and arridx. The way the parser works now, it either uses the subscript to offset varidx (when prefixed with the plus), or it is used directly as arridx. Should not be too difficult to allow doing both.
