units dissappearing

[carlinho]

so I added scenery and suddenly some units dissappeared from the game when I started it again
they show in loathing, but are gone when I play it.
in the mesh limits I'm way under the limits....
does scenery or models affect units or maybe somehow I went over the 400 limit without knowing it?

how can you tell how many units you have on the map at a certain time without having to estimate it by counting units by groups?

[Zeph]

make a geom with 1 second trigger, never deactivates, that finds all units on map and puts them in a separate SUBJ map action. Give it a debug action and then run the map. Go into myth log and you will see how many monsters were added to the SUBJ map action at every seconds.

sounds complicated, but I'll give it a try...
you don't have that scripted by any chance in a text format no?

hehehe

me: lazy bastard

Check the limits in Myth by pressing shift + page-down.

I dont see units/monsters in that read out though...

objects
projectiles
local proj groups
explosions
MA param size

thats all you get...

[Myrd]

monsters are there if you watch it as a film, or if the "is complete" checkbox isn't set on it in fear

[carlinho]

that's pretty cool, thanks!
I'll try it out tonite!

[carlinho]

thanks Myrd!!!!!
evidently the units I had were more than 400....with that tip I figured it out pretty quickly!
