Where should I store the words of a party game?

[GmTk]

Hello

For a party game, with several hundreds of words to be guessed,

Where should I store the words?
In the database
Or?
In material.inc.php - static data

How should I store different words depending of the language players choose?

If it's static, there is not point storing them in the DB.
For the language dependency, please check the "language dependent" section in documentation :

OK.
So, in material.inc.php, I should write something like that?

Code: Select all

$this->words =[ 'en_US' => [ 'us_word1', 'us_word2' (...) ]
, 'fr_FR' => [ 'fr_word1', 'fr_word2' (...) ] ] ;

That could work, yeah

I used to store stuff like this in the material.inc.php.
Now I simply throw it in the js file saying to myself that it'll be cached by browsers while everything coming from the server would not.
There's potentially less loading times as well as less server load.
