Hello OtLand Community!!
I was questioning myself what would happen if I use letters as storages and values in players_storage.
Then, I made a NPC and set storage as "rex" and value as 1. During my interaction with that NPC I could find out that the storage "rex" and value "1" were recorded and NPC could retrieve that information and work with that.
So I kept "rex" and changed 1 to "targaryen", I did found out that the NPC now, couldn't retrive this information.
But I noticed that on players_storage the field for
"key" are "int(10)"
and
"value" are "varchar(255)".
Then I found myself thinking: Why does it accept "rex" as "key" but doesn't accept "targaryen" as value even though "value" field accept "varchar(255)"?
Then I changed "key" to number and kept "value" as "targaryen". No results could be retrived.
Then I started to think: Even "value" tehorically(?) accepting varchar, maybe TFS itself can't handle this information as letters, only numbers.
Then I went to my MySql DB and did a search for key "rex" on players_storage, no results were retrivied.
Does anyone know if TFS itself changes this 'letter' information info somekind of numericstamp itself?
I became very curious about it.
If we could use "key" or "value" as letter or alfanumeric, it would be a lot easier to keep tracking of quests and stuff.
Thanks in advance for any clarification about the subject!
