A big thank-you for zszwg!

Hey, I wanna make this public, because the results have been so good thus far!
Basically, using zszwg's optimizations to get rid of MotionControl, and doing a few other things (NanoBlobs is not even
close to being fully optimized on the scripting end... yet), I've cut down the scripting load of NanoBlobs from 15% or so at full load... to this:
At any rate, thanks for teaching me a new way to look at certain issues, zszwg! Very useful

good work!
Optimizations are allways superb!

I will now mysteriously disappear, so my legend can grow and bloom!
But fear not, for one day I shall return.

Gah! That's what they all do!

You know, a bit of a tutorial or guide on how to optimise scripts would probably be a nice thing to have.

Bah, he'll be back tommorow.
Argh, a scripting optimizationwriteup *would* be pretty nice for all teh rest of teh modders out there ^^

<shrugs> I will be documenting all of this stuff when I get NanoBlobs thoroughly cleaned up. The first step was getting rid of the initial looping. I need to try to get zszwg to explain how he "protects" aiming scripts.

Yes. No. Maybe.
Hey look, I just invented quantum computing!
... waitaminute... that was offtopic even for me, lol...

can we have an example, how he optimized the scripts (i mean can we see a script before and after), so modders can try to script units right from the start better and save performance.
I know a bit of programming and some kind of optimization, the problem is that i dont know where optimization is required or not.

LOL!!
ALWAYS practice safe scripting techniques!
