Custom instructions

• Instructions in a storage are executed only within currently called storage instance and it will affect only variables of this instance.

Storages in compositions

• When composition using any storage will get exported, it will save with a copy of that storage (even if not selected)
• When such composition is placed in other scenario, it will make new independent copy of included storage under new name (e.g Entity storage (2))
• In case of multiple instances of same composition, references in all compositions will be set to one storage

Notes

• In case a script will try to access non-existent storage this will stop the script. So it is crucial to do a storage check using Has storage instruction before accessing storage on unknown entity (e.g Trigger object).
