Strings longer than 4096 chars?
« on: July 10, 2008, 09:24:06 AM »

Hi,

I'm storing long strings in variables in an .inc file and get an error when it is > 4096 chars. Is there a way to store bigger strings?
Thx.

4096 is the limit for a string constant in a script (it's a script compiler limit, not engine limit). You can store longer strings by concatenating them.
Out of curiosity, what are you using such huge strings for?

Am displaying text in a hand-held computer the actor carries around. Can also be scrolled and pages can be changed.

Thx a lot! :)
