Weapon Exceeding 28k in size

[haro41]

Our server has a very complex GUI which is now getting into the 24k+ range. and I was told that the max size for a weapon script is 28K. if and when we hit that limit is there a way we can have an override by an Admin to allow a larger filesize? Its something that really cant be split up into 2 separate npc's.

[dlang]

Load pieces of the weapon script from classes.

[Dach]

I still don't see how exceeding the filesize limit should ever be a problem

[haro41]

you havent seen our GUI.

The graphic of the gui is too big.

Agreed, I can't see jack. And it takes AGES for the mini-windows to pop up.
I bet if I had the time and enthusiasm I could make something MUCH less than 28k that would be just as good.

I bet the high file size is due to lack of taking the time to make it more flexible.

Regardless of the visual complexity of your GUI, you should easily just beable to hack extra script on by joining classes to it, which is what dlang said, and I assume Dach was hinting at.

If it 'really' is a problem, then make all your variables one letter long, and remove all tabbing/spacing... but then again, I shouldn;t really incourage such malpractice.

I would first suggest refining one's scripting rather than playing around with variable names and styling.

The only reason you deleted that npc was because you couldn't understand it, you didn't like me and because you can't script something like that.

LoL.... are you totally seriously making that statement, because if you are you shouldnt be allowed to even speak anymore

#1- scripters don't put down other scripters. that's just the way things go you'd have to be very immature and dimwitted to do so, you should be shunned from the name scripter.

#2- I didn’t know how to script, that’s why I made almost every single NPC on that server and what did you do... make a staff NPC that seems to be your pride and joy? -_- oh please spare your breath; I am very intimidated that you made a staff npc and I didn’t.

BTW I don’t hate anyone; I disliked your arrogance and your unwillingness to do any real work we needed.

Excuse me but I didn't make that staff npc UNTIL I did that car and bank.
And I still see those there but you will probly go delete those now too huh?

Yet you still called yourself one of the best scripters of Graal and insisted that I could not possibly compare when you worked on Bravo.

Not really, a single system should not ever need to be that big. What Xile said is your best solution. If the situation is not as Xile assumed, you're problem is inefficient coding .

From looking at your menu system (which I do like), it is very possible to split it up into the major menus and just trigger the submenus from the main one.

[XiLe]

Obviously if it is this big, it most likely contains many systems. All that needs to be done is the various systems split.
i.e. Some servers use -System to do a GUI, level system, HP system, and combat system. You would make -GUI, -Lvl System, -HP System, -Combat System.
