When i was using wwcoolman ship tbl editor/view it said 125/130 ships.

Does that mean there a limit on how many ships the game supports(130 ship limit)??

Yeah, maximum ship types is 130, except for an Inferno build - then it's 250, but multiplayer doesn't support more than 130.

[Trekker]

thanks for the fast reply

also coolman as i asked in this threat http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,29719.0.html


is your ships tbl editor work in progress or are you working on other things,  i am amazeed at all the stuff you produced

[Kie99]

What about FSO?

[Moonsword]

Kie, FSO is what they're talking about.  An Inferno build is a special type of FSO build with bumped limits in several areas.

Why Inferno limits aren't in all builds?

Why? PXO has been replaced by FS2NetD. I thought that ought to have fixed the problem.

[Moonsword]

I don't know why, but it is.

WTFH has happened to my post count??????

[Moonsword]

The admins reset it because you kept trying to compare digital penis size with Cobra.

[Trekker]

any chance the limits changing for the MP side in one of the new releases?

[WMCoolmon]

The issue with the limits is the packet size in multiplayer, from what I understand. Think of it like mail. You can only fit so much inside an envelope before you have to get a bigger one; FS2_Open either needs to divide the ship limits-dependant data in between envelopes or use a bigger one.

Doing that has been talked about but it's yet to be done; the only person with significant experience with the netcode is Kazan, who's disappeared for the time being.

[Trekker]

also expect it woudl increase lag

[Trekker]

could i continue past 130 enties in the ships tbl but antyehing greater than 130 would not show up except in single player mode.

As i working on a project that will contacin both single and mutiplayer missions in the end

[edit] woohoo! 700th!

[Trekker]

so where can i find infomation about the ship limits and ow to have the signle player and mutiplayer at differnt limits

[Moonsword]

Uhm, Trekker, we just told you.  Use an Inferno build rather than a normal build to get the bumped limits...

[Trekker]

*shrug* Since Starforce will have only 90-100 ships and T&T has been dead for a long time, it doesn't really matter for me anyway...
