Using a tags table

[yurembo]

Is it a normal way to use a tags table to save parameters of an object, for example: lifes, coins?
For what targets it table is use?

You can, but it's probably better to store properties in an entity script.

There is a problem. For example: when I select an object, pickinfo.entity returns entity without new properties which I added to the script.
I see a tags table is uncomfortable to use. A userdata table is better way. I'm rewriting my game to use this. I want to do it until a weekend because my game is not working well.

Honestly, the tags are just something people were asking for a long time ago. I never use them.
