It's come to my attention that M2's Items editor only allows 128 different items. Would making a new items list extend this limit? I'm currently modifying the default items list. Should I be making all my new items using a brand new items list in the first place?

Meteor 2 currently has a max limit of 128, it won't let you add any more than that. I can increase this in a later release? James You need to login to create posts in this thread. |

That may not be necessary, as long as removing many of M2's stock items and powerups won't damage a mod that doesn't use them, 128 should be enough for now. However extending it couldn't hurt

Why is there such limit anyway? You need to login to create posts in this thread. |

It makes me wonder too. I haven't tested yet, but I dont think M1 is restrained to any Item Limit. You would think M2 would be capable of the same thing.

The item list is probably an array, with 128 slots. And I don't think it's possible to "Push" an array in C++ (Correct me if I'm wrong). Same goes for the Static Flags; "Why only 100 and not more?". Well that's because Staticflags is declared as an array with 100 slots.

All of the post M2 stuff (Rod3D, Meteor 3 etc) uses C++ vectors which can be "pushed" and in effect have no limit. Meteor 1 and 2 are written in straight C, Rod 3D and Meteor 3 are C++.

@James Bunting So practically, infinite static flags and weapon slots for M3 and R3D? Awsum! ^_^ Hows the progress of M3 going, by the way?

Great to hear that (though I don't know any map/mod that would need 100+ StaticFlags). BTW arezey apologizes that he hasn't been appearing in a while in here and in IRC, his computer is broken. You need to login to create posts in this thread. |
