    • Crunch Tile Maximums? Ben read.


      I know MASCOT is unsupported, Ben, but if you are reading this, it probably means you have enough free time to answer my question.
      I'd like to ask what the maximum* number of crunch tiles you can have is.
      The One Big World project will have a lot of levels, so we may have to ration out crunch tiles.

      *I assume there are maximums, because the saved game remembers which tiles you crunched, and they are a finite size (944kB, I think.) Therefore, they can't handle an infinite amount of crunch tiles.

    • The maximum number of crunched tiles that can be stored in a saved game is 20,000. And yes, I will continue to read and post to the web boards, so not to worry.

      Thanks!

      Let's see... With 100 levels, that's 200 per level.

    • Who in the universe could find reason to put more than 200 crunch tiles in one level? Well I guess AVN does but really. πŸ˜‰
