@GameDev-er This is also relevant for local games. Besides that, there are a lot of game types that can use this.

@mh01 ahh, now I understand the meaning of your question. I thought I mentioned that i'm only creating the design. But I didn't.

@mh01 I'm asking this because I had a discussion about it. I would like to know why the pointer method is barley used. I see for both parts the logic behind it. But I wanted to know what can go wrong with each of these. So it’s more learning ;).

@mh01 I'm not creating a game, why do you that this is a “what should I use” question?

@Trevor Powell There are a lot of open source engines and there is always the reverse engineer option.
