Pack your strings NOW - Crystallize - 30.07.2017
Recently I was searching in samp wiki and I found this
https://sampwiki.blast.hk/wiki/Strpack
I was like lets open it and see what it is then I found "Packed strings" I never knew about this before the good about it is once you pack the string it will use 75% less memory according to samp wiki so imagine the big scripts that uses many strings with 128,326 bytes etc...
An example you can take from samp wiki
Код:
new string[32 char]; strpack(string, "Hi, how are you?");

Good shit.

Should've posted in Discussion forum. Anyway, I don't think it's worth the additional processing overhead unless I have a large array of strings. Also it's useless for any language that doesn't (exclusively) use the common Latin alphabet.

Unfortunately most functions from the standard Pawn libraries (also including user defined functions) and SA:MP natives are not compatible with packed strings.

Searching for it, it's been brought up before
Something like: http://forum.sa-mp.com/showpost.php?...21&postcount=7
Turns me off about it.
So it has some (Dis)advantages like every other thing.

(Good thought, but I'd rather write simpler code than saving something I don't have to save, then again maybe this becomes really important for someone who chooses to buy the cheapest VPS out there with slightly bad resources.

But I still find it unnecessary, I'm ready to sacrifice few kb's for less headache whether my string is packed or not
