Can Some one define FreeDTM?

[ffcfoo]

Hello, I am currently looking at some scripts so I can better understand them. I wen't to beginner scripts so I don't have to look for scripts that are long. So I found this one script and I am going threw it and I found this one part I don't understand. So I wen't to the SCAR Divi CDE Manual and it said this:


Unload deformable template editor.

Could someone explain that more? I have no idea what it means, the part of the script I am trying to figure out is this:


procedure FreeDTMs;
begin
FreeDTM(dtmStoExitMap);
FreeDTM(dtmArriveAtStoExit);
FreeDTM(dtmStoMap);
FreeDTM(dtmWSExitMap);
FreeDTM(dtmArriveAtWSExit);
FreeDTM(dtmWSCaveMap);
FreeDTM(dtmArriveWSCaveMap);
FreeDTM(dtmCaveCoalMap);
FreeDTM(dtmArriveAtCaveCoal);
FreeDTM(dtmWSMap);
FreeDTM(dtmCoalMap);
FreeDTM(dtmArriveCoalMap);
FreeDTM(dtmCaveExitMap);
FreeDTM(dtmArriveCaveExitMap);
FreeDTM(dtmNExitMap);
FreeDTM(dtmArriveNExitMap);
FreeDTM(dtmNStoMap);
FreeDTM(dtmArriveNStoMap);
FreeDTM(dtmPickAxe);
end;

What does FreeDTM do? No big words please, xD. I am not that smart.

Frees the DTM's that are loaded to free up memory.

Adding onto what Frement said, if you don't free DTMs, the script may start to become laggy. Also, if you try to a free a DTM which isn't in use (not been declared) SCAR will give you an error. I'm not sure if Simba will, but I assume so.
