I am a real noob at perl, though I know some other languages so I am not completely lost. Or well, now I am. I have an hash-array filled with about 500 entries. I am looping through them and removing some dupes like this: 
for ($i=0; $i<=$#players; $i++)
{
    my %player = %{$players[$i]};

    for ($ii=0;$ii<=$#players;$ii++)
    {
        if ($i != $ii)
        {

            my %player2 = %{$players[$ii]};

            if ($player{name} eq $player2{name})
            {

                $player{deaths} += $player2{deaths};
                $player{kills} += $player2{kills};
                
                #Remove the dupe entry
                splice(@players, $ii, 1);
            }

        }
    }
}

But when I am printing those new values later on in a loop, like this: 
my %player = %{$players[$i]};
print "$player{kills}";

They print the old value. How do I save the values I changed them to before?
