Is this possible? To add an array of enum hack into an adt_array?

I'm trying to add this into an adt_array.

enum ItemData
{
    EntityID,
    String:ItemTag[32],
    StartHP
};

I need to have an array of the enum hack sized about 1500 (I'm using about 1300 of it and still expanding) and it started causing some instabilities during server restarts and plugin loads at start.

I was wondering if I can use it into an adt_array?

Why would a dynamic array be faster than a static one?

Also, you can divide string lengths by 4 in enum hack things, it thinks it's a cell array and so would allocate 32 * 4 bytes for you with that

Then you're doing something wrong.
What? We will never know, probably.

I don't think it's faster, but I had some errors saying "invalid memory access" on the console on a flawless statement (literally "new hello[5]; hello[2] = 3;") so I figured it would be related to an array with 1500 indexes.

As for the enum hack, does that mean I can put new String:foo[16] instead of [64] and still use it as if it's 64 long?

It is a cell array, do not do that.

Wait, so I shouldn't use 16 for a 64-long String array in enum hack?

You shouldn't be using an enum struct in the first place. You won't find support for it from anyone other than the people crazy enough and that already understand how they work.

I'd feel better about that statement if enum structs weren't present in the core adminmenu plugin, added by pRED back in 2008.

Well have a 2015 statement: The use of enum structs is discouraged.
