Interesting what you say about GetAddress. I'd not got to using that. Can you explain a scenario you've found it useful in? I've sometimes found it difficult to find problems. Things like objects getting freed up due to reference counting reaching zero and me not realising it. Is this the sort of scenario you a using it in?

A few times i verified the same reference got passed through a couple of classes in the place where was needed.

Once i verified how the reference counting works for Emitters.Had problems in certain edge cases i was deleting NULL pointers.Or creating multiple Emitters on MouseHit.

 

Also for something like this:

if (Object::GetAddress(console->ast->GetAsteroids()[i]) == Object::GetAddress(pickinfo.entity)) {
    currentIndex = i;
    break;
}

 

I usually use Entity SetKeyValue for identifying things, for asteroids i was lazy doing like above.

OK thanks for the info!
