Max string length for dialogs? - The King's Bastard - 28.07.2012
Hi.
I have huge dialogs which are automatically generated.
Now the string cuts off after 4224 characters.
Is this the limit?

Why do you have a dialog of 4224 characters? >.<
You should probably split it up in multiple dialogs at a point of exceeding ~1000-800 characters.

Because I have an inventory system which requires displaying as many items as possible.

Use strcat.

That's what I'm already using.

iam surprised that you can display more than 4096 chars in a dialog, i thought this is the limit, obviously i have to revise my dialog script aswell. to increase your inventory-dialog size, remove some color formatting codes. i know, it will not look neat anymore, but its worth the effort until you decide to script a system where you can click "next page" or similar.
