Heya

Just wandering if there is a limit the the number of characters that a GUMP,name,3/{TEXT IN HERE} can hold?

I wrote a fairly extensive description about a quest on an xmlquestnpc, but the configfile won't load when i spawn the npc. It will only load if i delete that long paragraph?

So what is the character limit?

There is no limit (that I know of). If it is having trouble loading it is probably due to the use of restricted characters like / in the text.

Ok well I found a sneaky : in the middle, and removed that but its still having trouble.

the only other things i can see are quotation marks ""... would that interfere?

ArteGordon- 08-08-2006
quotes shouldnt matter, but curly braces {} or forward slashes / would.

If you post the entry I can take a look at it.

Ok well... bit strange, it seems that it was the quotation marks, that was the only thing i took out and it seems to work now? Seems a bit funny because i'm sure i've used them before hehe

anyways thanks!
