Refactor script:Value #69

Closed benreid24 closed 2 years ago

benreid24 commented 3 years ago

References can be implemented as regular pointers. Each value:

Maintains a list of values pointing to it
On destruction invalidates those referring values

Reference values:

Register themselves with the value they reference to
Unregister themselves on destruction or type change

This removes dynamic value allocation and allows a more compact memory model.

Also in this change:

Return references and const references to internal value components. Throw errors on bad type access. Return by value results in unnecessary work.
Separate Numeric type into separate int and float types
