Is it possible to give many entities of same schema to one element in EStorage?

[1120415118]

I have some list datas need to store in the element by EStorage. For ease of management, I want to respectively store in the form of entity with filed of one value, just like Object-Oriented Programming, but I don't know if this is feasible for setting many entities of same schema to one element, and if it's possible, whether storage in this way has a Max number, which means how many entities it can contain.

I will appreciate for your reply.

If you want to store the same data on numerous different elements, I would suggest defining some globally accessible location for the data object and just storing pointers to that on the individual elements that need to reference it.

Here are some other articles on extensible storage:
