@icedquinn I normally don't store objects in arrays. I use lists/vectors.

Some speedrunner beat Super Mario 64 using a drumset. An actual drumset, not a Guitar Hero/Rock Band one.

@ArdainianRight Reminder that the US vs China "war"/rivalry is fake just like all foreign relations.

But I'm sick of repeated code. It's either that or have HUGE parent classes and honestly, I'm seeing more advantages of composition over inheritance.

Honestly, the entity component design pattern is just the strategy pattern but for video games, but I'm not sure how efficient it is to store objects by giving them IDs and storing them in a hashmap. At that point, you are treating game objects like entries in a SQL database.

@PhenomX6 @Jim @JoelBodin And the poster.place node.

@Ricotta It should've stayed independent.

@icedquinn Those aren't OOP languages.

Next gamedev project, I'm using the Entity Component System. I'm sick of all this repeated code. I wish I knew about this pattern earlier.

@PhenomX6 @lemonheep Or from the Gab drama even though they defederated.
