Too much entries in a text list?
Hi,
I've got a some questions: Is there a limit of entries a text list can contain? I merged some name packages - and add some myself - and now the last name text list contains over 56.000 entries. But now, newly generated sims don't have surnames. I read, there is a "magical" number - something like 32.000 and a few - which causes errors in the game like getting negative amounts of simeleons etc. Should I reduce the entries in the file to this number or doesn't it have anything to do with this error? Could a package contain more than one item of the same instance and resource and use them all without any problems?
P.S.: if you ask yourself, why do I need so many names: I merged the name replacements mods before without adding more names, but even then the game generates sims with identical names. So, yeah, I overdone it a bit.
