What's the size limit of an event. Last 2 missions I've worked on I've run into it but can't quite figure it out. It's not a fun thing to hit either since it just plain crashes on save or load. Now with things like when-argument it's easier then ever to hit it too. Couple of nice lists of arguments and boom.

I didn't think there was a limit to the size of an event. It should be INT_MAX.
If you want to Mantis an FS2 mission that does it I can probably give you a better answer (Or TBP at a push but that's harder cause I have to plough through all the debug errors to get there :( )

I should be able to convert Vid's latest one to FS2 easy enough. Don't think it will hurt if all the ships change themselves to Ulysses.
I haven't been able to narrow down where the cut of is though. It seems to not be an exact number or is base on a size in characters not lines. For example 2 identical events with different ship names one I got about 200 in in-sequence arguments the other I had to cut back to 175. The second one had a longer ship name.

You would think I could go one night of FREDing without running into 3 bugs.
