Scene attribute or game attributes

Are there any benefits to using scene attributes over game attribute.

Hi, scene attributes values are forgotten once you've left the scene; so if you revisited a scene, the original values only would apply.

game attributes are remembered even when moving from scene to scene, so, for instance, if you have game.score which reaches, let's say, 251 in one level, then when moving to the next level and using a change attribute game.score to game.score + 10, it then becomes - of course - 262. Even if you returned to a previous scene, it would still be 262. Continuing through the game, whichever scene, it will always have its latest value remembered.

Keep in mind scene attributes can only be accessed from a unlocked actor in the scene

Wait, what exactly is the difference between a scene and a game attribute?

You know I forgot about that, but I guess I really wanted to know if it has any effect on memory.

A scene attribute can only be use in the scene and a game attribute can be used globally in any scene.

No memory difference between game and scene attributes.
