[General] What's the limit of globals/variables?

[Tal'Rarity]

How many udg_come_find_me can a map possibly hold before it just says No?

The wc3 script evaluator passes out after ~25k variables. The same limit is for functions I think. There may be further restrictions with the GUI, at least the menu will get ridiculous with high amounts.

Also I have looked at the actual war3map.j before. I believe it specifies UDGs for widgets using coordinates. So in that case they should just really be normal variables.

Objects you refer to via trigger get named in variables. Also some other stuff like a trigger variable for each trigger leaf, a sound variable per sound in sound editor...

Thank you for correcting me and sharing this information.

So the max variables allowed has nothing to do with map size but it's just some (arbitrary) limit Blizzard came up with?

25k eh.... Well at least that's some good news the limit is big. Thanks for the information WaterKnight.
