Universal Getter + Setter: Workaround for nested accessors

[FrostyCat]

Universal Getter + Setter (GMS 1.4)

Overview
This GML extension adds a functional equivalent of the chained accessor feature on the 2.x roadmap, allowing you to reach into deeply nested arrays and data structures in one line. It also adds the ability to use negative index numbers to count backwards from the end on arrays, lists and grids, similar to Python and Ruby.

Examples

var json = '{ "a": [1, 2, { "b": 3 }]}',
   json_data = json_decode(json);
show_message(Get(json_data, "a", 2, "b")); //3
show_message(Get(json_data, "a", -2)); //2

var nested_array = array_create(3);
nested_array[0] = array_create(2, 1);
nested_array[1] = array_create(2, 4);
nested_array[2] = array_create(2, 9);
Set(nested_array, -1, 1, 16);
show_message(Get(nested_array, 2, 0)); //9
show_message(Get(nested_array, 2, 1)); //16
