Creation/Dev/GScript/Constants

As one might be able to deduce, a constant has a single value and will retain that value as long as that constant exists. A constant is not a variable for one very important reason: it's value is not variable!

const intVar = 3;
intVar = 4;
player.chat = intVar; // displays 3

The value of the constant cannot change even in conjunction with the use of the "=" operator. This is the power of a constant. However, player.variables cannot be defined as a constant (client(r).variables, too, possibly).

A constant may be used most likely to keep a variable that is available to any script from changing its value due to any foreign script interfering.
