So I found about a billion bugs in Teh Blobz , and I've been wracking myself for the past week or so fixing them. It was very unsatisfying. The worst part, I "learned" that putting spaces between code is bad. (Example : samplevar = 0 should actually be samplevar=0) Now I have thousands of lines of code to go through and un-spaceify. Is this really neccesary? Someone tell me if I'm wasting my time by doing this..

My personal preference is to use spaces between operators, just for readability's sake. From a performance standpoint, it shouldn't matter one way or the other; aside from indentation, the spacing is irrelevant to the DM compiler. The .dmb file is kind of like the "distilled essence" of the source code.

For the same reason, it doesn't affect performance whether you call a variable "x" or "incrediblyLongNameThatTakesForeverToType" -- the compiler gives every variable a simple code to identify it internally.

You're wasting your time, Vex.

I prefer to put spaces between operators too! =)

Whoever taught you that was completely wrong -- don't listen to that person anymore.
