level cap

[blacksheepwalll]

i set the hero level cap to 50 but i cant seem to pass 15 and half a bar of xp

does anyone have any ideas what could be causing it

i think it might be that the xp number may exceed the max capacity of the variable warcraft uses to store the integer cause im increasing the required xp by 2.2 times previous value

WC3 supports pretty big numbers on hero exp. How much exp does your hero have when it caps?

Are you killing creeps? Have you adjusted Hero XP - Creep reduction table?

 

[Chaosy]

my guess is that you kill creeps that are low level and nearly dont gives exp or does not give at all

ive been testing by using a -level trigger to level up the hero and it seems to cap at about 2.1 billion xp
i deleted the creep reduction list except for 100

WC3 uses 32 bit integers, 2^32 = 4 294 967 296. And as it must support negative values, the max positive value is half of that, around 2,1 billion. So yeah, you're causing an overflow.
