well the engine limitations again
- What if someone registers a tag like WORLDEATERTHEARDENTWORSHIPPEROFKHORNETHEGODOFCHAOS?
OFPEC Tags are limited to three or four letters... right?
- The leading zeros will be truncated,
.... by engine default?
Well ASCII was a thought as well, but i never memorized the whole ascii table while at school so alphabet works fine.
yeah, creating "esoteric" pre numbers, but good to know idcs are local. didnt know that one before, one problem solved
Should the problem of IDD collusions ever arise it'd IMHO be the best to treat them like IP addresses: have an instance where you can register a specific range.
--- YES, thats my point mainly i wanted the extra field inside the usermenu of OFPEC Tags, so we can add our own IDDid.
If the idd really dont collide because no two dialogs are open at the same time, thats good but...
Furthermore these long numbers are quite annoying
it makes the code more readable/the id more remembereable ... because i work with many dialogs and always creating a random esoteric number will confuse sooner or later.
.and probably wont be accepted like the simple addon tags.
they wont be seen by anyone, anyway except the developer, the engine and maybe someone peeking in the addon. so who cares
so i stick with my, now smaller, system .. ie staying well below 4 250 000 and not careing about others dialogsconventions. praying
Thx for infos
