This advanced video tutorial shows you how to use efficient data with constructors in GameMaker.

Image you have an inventory with hundreds of entries and each entry has values like name, costs, icon image etc. . Creating for each entry one variable per value even with arrays is not an good way to handle that task. So what I think is one efficient way is to create structs via constructor and store each entry into one array. By that you have only one index that defines which item you want values from. That's it!

Tldr: Yes
