I was having some difficulty with running my project in DreamSeeker, but when I tried using DreamDaemon, I got an error message that the maximum number of lists (65535) had been exceeded. Would it be possible to remove or increase this limit?
[EDIT]
I may be able to avoid using this many lists, if non-atoms can be given a loc var that behaves like an atom's loc var and causes the non-atom to appear in an atom's contents list. If this is not possible, I could still avoid using the lists if an obj can be made sufficiently invisible that no client message will be sent when the obj moves. Will setting the visibility var to 0 achieve this?
[EDIT]
What I'm looking for is a way for every turf to have a list capable of holding objects that have no unnecessary vars and don't cause client messages when they move.

While it would be technically possible for the list to exist for these turfs only, deleting it for turfs leaving a player's field of vision and creating it for turfs entering a player's field of vision would be a lot of unnecessary work. |
Jeepers H. Cripes, what all have you got listed?
