List object has limited content..

[Dynamite]

Hey

I'm using the list object for a very large list but I realised that the list object only has a limited amount of space. Is there a way to change the object's files to make it an unlimited amount of space?

Making a second list that continues from the first will just be harder and more complicated.

Where is the limitation you have ran into? I once used the list object to create a huge list of valid Saira serial codes, in that case it could handle around 400000 items and export that as a text file.

When categorising my list of movies I brought a list object to over 1000 lines. If you need that many you should probably rethink your strategy.

Naah, it worked just fine and outputted the .txt that I needed. It's not part of the game anyway, it's just a little separate program that I needed to create the files I use to distribute serial codes. There's nothing wrong with that even though I used a list object with ~400000 items.

It is wrong if used in a game though for performance and memory reasons.

I suppose you could use some kind of delimiters to make that work, but I could not imagine why you would need to store that much info.

I was more talking to Dynamite, for serial numbers and stuff I can see why. For a game you should never have that much.

Oh, I thought he just need a way to get more space.
