Post any bugs you find here. But there aren't as many bugs that are really bugs and I don't already know about than when this first started, so also use this as a general conversation save, or to ask / tell me anything. #1 most commented save in tpt!

  jacob1: Also I said hundreds of thousands of users becuase my user ID is 123576 which means that there are hundreds of thousands of users registered. Maybe they don't all want tons of signs, but I'm sure many have run into problems occasionally.

  But maybe it already does that :P

  jacob1: Personally, it's the sign limit that bugs me, not the character limit. You might want a lot of short signs to just label things but you only get 16. In my power source that doesn't heat up save I had to try and reword it to use only 16 signs. explosivepowder: Half a megabyte=524288 characters. Unless the code was worked to make two characters fit per byte since I doubt TPT supports the whole 255 character range, in which case half a megabyte would be 1048576 characters.

  Also, Maby insted of increasing the charactor limits, you can incrrase the sign limit? ID:1858723 is struggling becaue i cant post the link sign for my most recent kadiald terrain due to someone adding a stupid nooby sign limit. >:(

  Never mind that, Would be too hard to code i would think, Maby set the charactor limit to 64? why 64? 16 signs * 64 charactors in all of them = 1024, 1024 charactors per save, This should be semi viable, But if that doesnt work, Maby an amount of charactors that is equal to half a megabyte. Half a megabyte would be the total data with all signs filled, This would result in a viable sign limit that still allows you to make them quite big.

  Jacob1: As to prevent a sign from taking up a megabyte or something, Maby make it so, While you CAN put unlimited charactors in a sign, It simply will not load any charactors that exit the view. In other words, It wouldnt be a charactor limit, But a size limit that has the width of a save.

  I just updated my mod to fix all the bugs people reported. Hopefully everything is fine now! Also I broke the updater but it isn't really broken, so ignore the error. I did manage to at least retroactively fix the 30 second freeze when updating, because the code that did that ran *after* updating. Now it will only freeze for 2.5 seconds before erroring.

  Anyway, if you can't explain your save in 720 characters (this is 45*16), then I don't know what you are doing. That's even longer than the comment limit. I had to make a limit somewhere (what is there to prevent someone from making a sign with a megabyte of text?), I just chose 45 randomly.

  explosivepowder: you aren't even hitting the 16 sign limit, you should just be able to add 3 or 4 more signs and all your text will still fit. It isn't anything to worry about :P
