[2.0.28] 65536 max storage on space platform

Post by gerben »

Hi guys, love the game. Sorry to waste your time with something you're probably aware of. But I searched the forum and couldn't find it.

My space platform HMS Behemoth has 4.3k+ of cargo bays, so the storage bonus should total 86k+, but the number won't rise above 65536 (2^16, probably integer maxvalue).

Is this fixable?

Thanks so much for Space Age,
Gerben.

Thanks for the report. That is the max inventory size the game supports.

Would giving an error message when you try to build too many cargo bays be difficult to do? Although it is probably very rare for someone to build so many cargo bays...

I'd think not that uncommon. All asteroids (so also red) stack at 1. Maybe I overdid it a little, but I would imagine many people having tens of thousands of storage.

Why don't you just crush the asteroids first?
