How exactly is it more efficient?

My guess is that is just has to access the variable, rather than have to call a function.

Not a big difference really ... I was just never a big fan of makevar.... (but you know that already :P).

I never understood how it was more efficient either but I use it now because I dont want to type makevar all the time

Typeing makevar is not a problem with me it takes no time at all. And I don't need to use makevar in the mudlib anyhow since I have functions for that. I like makevar because it looks better to me than the other option.

I think Stefan said it somewhere. I went looking for it, but I couldn't find it.

But logically, one could assume that the makevar function is just doing a (@var) thing anyway.

Logically it would perform (@ var) in iteration for each part.of.the.variable, I suppose, not sure if that is how it is actually working though.
