Questions about a storygame? Thoughts on Eternal? Any other IF you're playing out there?

Does anyone know if there is a limit to how many games you can have saved at one time? I'm pretty much just curious. I hardly ever save games, and if I do I finish one before going on to the next. But I thought about it, and now I'm too curious to not ask :P

I imagine it's unlimited, but like you, I don't use it thaaat much.

I've only had two or three at a time, and that's because  I forgot to delete them. I don't know.

Alrighty then :)

I kind of just assume that its unlimited. Alexp doesn't seem to put many limits on things... (except variables, grrr...)

You'll find away around everything eventually.

I used it once to save before I went through the maze in OMS since I didn't know about the autoexit after so many turns at the time.

You can delete your saves under "My Stuff: Saves"

Do you mean me specifically? And are you referring to what I was saying about variables, or the save game thing? I'm not really too sure what you meant by your response.

Just saying you always find a way to work variables.

Haha... maybe. And I kind of did, actually. Just not a non-annoying way to work around it. See, you can only have a variable go up to 39999 or something. If I want to go any higher than that, I need to split it into two variables and its annoying. And for something I was doing, it would have made my life a lot easier if it could go up a lot higher.

I honestly have no idea about variables.

No way Zikara, the score in the Tower for the best ending is well over 100,000. I'm guessing that the upper limit is probably about 4,294,967,295 because I think they are probably 32 bit variables.

Maybe score can go higher... but the variables I was using did not go that high. And it made me sad.

Wait. Never mind. It did crap out before I wanted it to, but it was at 3000000000 not 30000. I forgot what I had needed it for lol!

Don't you hate it when that happens? You know it matters and it was important, you just forgot what it is! Haha!
