Title: Big arrays in Companion
Post by: gumby on September 04, 2014, 06:12:10 PM

I ran into this today.  For some reason, the template game is dumping on me when I try to use an array that I've defined with an index over (about) 2000.

Here's my code

Code: [Select]

(local
   roomMap[2460]
)

-- then in the init of my room:
(for (= i 0) (< i 2460) (++i)
     = roomMap[i] 1
)


If I change my loop to only iterate say 2000 times, it's fine.  I tested this out in Studio and it seemed to work fine (no crashing) so it seems to only be impacting Companion.

EDIT:  I can change the loop to go up to 2024 before the game starts corrupting.  Starting at 2025, the top menu gets corrupted.

A difference in the compilers?

Yeah, looks like it.  I'd like my new script to work in Studio & Companion, so I may just need to create 2 arrays at half the size.
