How big a value can you stuff into a creature's memory cells? I didn't see it listed in the docs... I'm looking for (semi-) persistent storage for the game ticks when a certain event happened, and it could easily be bigger than a SDF could hold. Only one creature in one town needs to know when it happened, and I would want it reset if the party leaves that town, anyway. Anyone have any suggestions, if memory cells won't hold it? -spyderbytes -------------------- -spyderbytes Posts: 200 | Registered: Wednesday, March 31 2004 08:00 |

It'll likely be either... 128, 255, 256, 512, 1024 -------------------- Apparently still annoying. Posts: 612 | Registered: Saturday, October 13 2001 07:00 |

Why not use a variable? They last as long as you stay in the town, and can hold values up to 32767. -------------------- Creator of the 3D Blades of Avernum Editor for Mac.
