Double point

[Gtam]

Say i do this : set point1 = position of (what ever), set point2 = point1, then remove point2. Are both points removed or what?

 

[Faust]

No.

It's considered not leak. So, both removed.

Removing the points with something like this?

• Custom script: call RemoveLocation( udg_Point2 )

No, only the 2nd point would be removed if you do have them as separate variables.

So it wil work like that or do i hav to remove point1 aswell

Why answer when you don't know?

A point is an object.
A variable can point to objects.
RemoveLocation() removes the object the variable is pointing towards.

In your example both variables are pointing to the same object.
Using RemoveLocation() on either variables will destroy that object, and both variables will now point to a non-existing point object.


Short answer: You will only need to use RemoveLocation() once.
