Unused Variables

If you haven't noticed already, there's about a thousand unused variables in MSI. I believe this just shows poor scripting, and I'm sure most of you will agree. I think most are in the Extras, but we need someone to go through and get rid of them all. Even if you only get rid of a few and commit, that's fine.

If we all do a few every couple days, they'll be gone in no time. :)

I'm unsure about this, but I think I saw a lot of upper case unused variables. Aren't those supposed to be constants?

Depends what they're supposed to represent I guess; however, if they're unused they shouldn't even be there.

I thought constants were uppercase and all the others weren't? :D

Oh I didn't realize you meant they were all uppercase. :o If there are, then yes, you're right; but still, if they're not used, they shouldn't be there. :p

I agree. I was trying to say that constants will not give you a ``variable unused'' warning. ;)

But constants aren't dangerous Wizzup :)
cstrike has a lot of unused variables

Neither are variables. ;) Both constants and variables should be removed if they're not being used.
