Context Tags

Context Tags are a collection of simple text descriptors. There are a lot of details that make sense within the reality of a game that it would make no sense to try and include - particularly things we presently CAN'T include, like taste, smell, and sensation. Context Tags aren't a 1 to 1 replacement for the senses, but being able to meaningfully include those details - and even more so, the ability to USE those details mechanically in game spaces - has limitless applications. The same tag is typically shared between many different objects within a game world, and they are managed through the aptly named Context Manager. These tags, chiefly, provide a space for adding context to the containing object. They enable comparing and sorting of tags using integer operations, rather than string comparisons, to greatly save on memory.
