Script size limit

Just ran into this, so I figured I should let everyone else know of this limitation:

Map script sizes can be a maximum of 17,999 characters (including spaces and line returns). If you go beyond that it's very likely you will cause the game to crash when loading the map.

 

That's a lot of text!
Are you going to release a new mod?

 

Have had one in progress. See: this thread.

 

There's also a much smaller limit (I haven't tested to find an exact size) on armitem.tsc which can cause a crash when you open inventory
