dmd 2.068 gives a better message:

Error: slice expression this.sabotarray[] is not a modifiable lvalue

Just drop the []:

             sabotarray ~= tempcarte;

After all, the symbol 'sabotarray' represents the array and you want to 
append to it. On the other hand, sabotarray[] is a temporary slice, 
which happens to be an rvalue (read: not modifiable). You don't want to 
append to that temporary.
