I have a java script question.

[CesarZ]

if my code is.

class Monster{
    constructor(health, level, outfit){
    this.m_health = health,
    this.m_level = level,
    this.m_outfit = outfit,
    this.m_outfit = New Outfit(outfit);
    }
}


//My question is....
//If i place a monster on the map of my game.

const Monster_placer = [
    New Monster(100, 30, 2)
];

//if i delete one by using

this.Monster_placer.pop(1);

//Would it also delete that class that says
    New Outfit(outfit);
   
//located inside that Monster class?

my Goal here is to save as much memory and dump all trash if they aren't being use on any of my projects with JavaScript. I'm trying to understand how it works when it comes to memory use.

i don't know if BEFORE i pop the monster out, i should pop that "New Outfit" class out of there and then pop the monster out.

I don't know if you all get me or i have to explain my self better. let me know your thoughts thanks

You can try following code

class Outfit {
constructor(name) {
this.name = name;
}
}

class Monster {
constructor(health, level, outfit) {
this.m_health = health;
this.m_level = level;
this.m_outfit = new Outfit(outfit); // Create Outfit instance inside Monster
}
}

// Placing a Monster on the map
const Monster_placer = [
new Monster(100, 30, 2)
];

// Removing the last Monster (and its Outfit) from the map
Monster_placer.pop(); // Removes the last Monster object and its associated Outfit

What you can try yourself is to create a million monsters, then remove them. You will see then the memory usage and (if) there are any leaks
