Fitting a cross-platform game into the tiny confines of a Wii is a lot of work. This is a reminder to myself to make a post on one of my optimizations to our usage of Lua.
I added an extension that does a CRC of a function’s bytecode, constants, etc. and then builds a function db at world load time, sharing them as duplicates are found. Saves a lot of memory. Just a little bit of trickiness with keeping the current game object environment set right and all that. More later when we’re out the door.
