I don't see the problems with pointers tbh

I hate linked lists because they are 1. super fucking annoying and 2. very slow.

schmeling65

remembering correctly each player had one cg_t-struct; each cg_t had many other structs. And that went up to a maximum of 18 players. And now have fun doing memory editing in real time for each player xD

Download Structures.cs:

I disagree. They are super optimized to insert an element after another one in O(1)

alatinn

Which basically never happens lol

alatinn

And that's not even right tbf

hesopesomeso

Like the elb guys wrote a whole linked list compilcated mess of a code for collisions, instead you can just use 2 vectors (lists) 🤦

hesopesomeso

Yeah, sure, but sequential access is just awful

alatinn

I love that, when you're a student, you're basically learning that linked lists can be pretty useful in many cases. But just a year after, you learn about using single memory blocks :Obelul:

hesopesomeso

Good thing I skipped going to any of those :Obelul:

schmeling65

look at my c#-structs. It is right, that you can just calculated every entry and modify it that way, but finding and understanding them is a pain in the ass.

alatinn

Guess you got the first point by yourself 🙂

schmeling65

I'd make these structs and let them be there for ever and just use functions to enter specific places that I want to know

alatinn

I don't rembember how std::vectors are coded though

alatinn

I use to code in python now (I mean the part that relies on a C implementation :Pauselix:

)

hesopesomeso

Simple, in essence. You take a memory block, once full, you reallocate. If you pick a nice constant, amortized constant time insertion.

hesopesomeso

Python is great

alatinn

Oh, right, I remember now

hesopesomeso

Hold on I'll take a look once I'm in front of my computer

hesopesomeso

I guess the discussion has spiralled now :Obelul:

hsk let's go :KEKW:
