Is it possible to use parallelism in Scripting?

Hey all,

Just been trying to improve performance of my map, and have a solution to move one of my entity/function combinations into a block/script combination.
Where I store the positions of each block in a Dynamic Property (calculated I can have up to 2520 coords stored in a string)

32,767 chars / 13 chars ("1234,12,1234;") = 2520 coords

So then roughly every tick or two, I want to loop over the positions in parallel, and perform operations.

Please let me know if this is possible 🙂 And also if you think its a good idea.

I feel like its more performant than running scriptevent at every entity. Rather looping over positions of static blocks (also reduces entities in the world)

paralel can only be done with multiple threads

scriptsa api is single threaded

Ah shit. So do you think it could loop over 2000 positions quite fast in single-threaded fashion? Checking blocks and such.

Or would it constantly spam slow-running script you think?

Guess the best way is to try, must do some tests. Also wanting to try chain dynamic properties together to support more positions. idk
