Max Player question. - zerowhz - 24.11.2013

can anyone explain which difference is between

Code:

[MAX_PLAYERS]

and

Code:

[MAX_PLAYERS char]

. Does it matter if I use only

Code:

[MAX_PLAYERS char]

Re: Max Player question. - RenSoprano - 24.11.2013

Code:

[MAX_PLAYERS]

It's equal to 500 ( Maximum Players ) * 4 bytes per cell = 2000 bytes

Code:

[MAX_PLAYERS char]

It's equal to 500 ( Maximum Players ) * 1 bytes per cell = 500 bytes and it will take less memory

Thank you but, does it matter if I use only [MAX_PLAYERS char] ?

The answer depends on the values you want to use.

Use char only when the values are between 0-255. Any value out of the bounds will be wrapped into bounds.

Also when you use char in the script, you'll need to use { } for the indexes instead of [ ].
