SetPVarInt question - Celson - 11.12.2011

Am I better of using these PVar functions or should I be using arrays?

In the case of keeping track of a players cash. Which should I do?

pawn Код:
SetPVarInt(playerid,"pCash",100);
Or

pawn Код:
new pCash[MAX_PLAYERS];

// In a callback...
pCash[playerid] = 100;
What are the advantages and disadvantages of each? Which is faster?

I'll Rep+ anyone who can give me some useful information.

SetPVarInt is better but for the speed I am not sure.

EDIT2: Arrays are better not pvars

The only outstanding advantage for using PVars over Arrays is that you can share per-player-data across multiple scripts.

Arrays are faster, but PVars are shared between gamemode and filterscripts.
