Hi

I've been reviewing a few scripts, the "resource storage" types to be precise, such as reagent vase, scroll cases, etc.

These scripts rely very heavily on TAGS, usually assigned to the item that you dclick to access the dialog.

Is this the most efficient way of doing it? Or is there a better way?

On modern day hardware and internet connections would it unduly lag the server/player if you were working on a script/dialog which used say 150+ tags to calculate stored resources, for example?

Thanks

Maybe there is a better way, can you post an example ?

Hi

Well its a resource storage system, so i need a TAG i think to store the amount of resource stored, but it will do potions/logs (including custom)/ingots (inc. custom)/scrolls/cloths (inc custom) which is well over 200 tags :/

so in the gump section
I would need this, times about 200?

<eval <tag0.resource_name_amount_stored>>


was just wondering if there is a better and/or more efficient way... or whether it doesnt actually matter about how many tags i use?

thanks

You can try to use LIST for this case.
