Hello everyone,
i have a table with loads of elements in them. and when i call table.remove , it freezes the game for a second. But when i do this :
example :
mytable = nil
collectgarbage(“collect”)
it doesn’t freeze in above situation. So is the above mentioned way a proper way to empty tables and free memory?. Thank you

Long answer short…
You might want to read up on Tables Part 1 and Part 2
If you rip out the Index in a Book, do all the chapters disappear?
What you have done is just pointed the Index to nothing, the contents are still there in memory.
