Object reference not set to...

Object reference not set to an instance of an object in line 15 where theworld[j,k,i] = (byte)(0);:

 using UnityEngine;
 using System.Collections;
 
 public class WORLD : MonoBehaviour {
     byte[,,] theworld = new byte[1000,1000,1000];
     public Transform rock;
 
     void Start () {
     for(int i = 0; i < 1000; i++)
         {
             for(int j = 0; j < 1000; j++)
             {
                 for(int k = 0; k < 3; k++)
                 {
                     theworld[j,k,i] = (byte)(0);
                 }
             }
         }
         Generate(Random.seed);
     }
     
     void Update () {
     
     }
     void Generate(int seed)
     {
         for(int i = 1; i < 1000; i++)
         {
             for(int j = 1; j < 1000; j++)
             {
                 int height = Random.Range(1, 2);
                 for(int k = 1; k < height+1; k++)
                 {
                     theworld[j,k,i] = (byte)(1);
                 }
             }
         }
         for(int i = 1; i < 1000; i++)
         {
             for(int j = 1; j < 1000; j++)
             {
                 for(int k = 1; k < 3; k++)
                 {
                     if(theworld[j+1,k,i] == (byte)(0) ||
                         theworld[j,k,i+1] == (byte)(0) ||
                         theworld[j-1,k,i] == (byte)(0) ||
                         theworld[j,k,i-1] == (byte)(0) ||
                         theworld[j,k+1,i] == (byte)(0) ||
                         theworld[j,k-1,i] == (byte)(0)
                         )
                     {
                         Instantiate (rock, new Vector3(j,k,i), Quaternion.identity);
                     }

I'm guessing it isn't allowing you to allocate 1GB of RAM to that array. If your world is going to be sparsely populated you can use a Dictionary and a lookup function which will give you O(1) performance but a lower memory overhead.

Possible, it writing me about ended RA$$anonymous$$, but it using only 2,5 Gb of the RA$$anonymous$$ and still working pretty much.

$$anonymous$$ake the array dimensions smaller and see if you still get the null reference.
