:s
Why is there no code in the add_to_particles_array function?
it's returning a TYPE by reference. That's bad in your case, faster in most others. I'll have to fix it.
So far, make a LOCAL for the return value of add_to_particle_array, and pass this to the function.
Because it irrelevant to the error I'm afraid.
Code there or not, the error revolves around functions returning types in this situation.

:( OK, Ill add, add that bit of code for now Gernot, thanks for looking into it.
Oh dear. I'm not sure if I can get this working at all. That would require a whole lot of work. However, you get a better error message now.
OK Gernot, thanks for giving it a go and its easy to work around.
Now get to bed its late! :P
