Title: Launcher Max Number?
Post by: MUengineer on September 25, 2013, 10:27:54 AM
Is there a maximum number of launchers that can fire at once?  I sometimes have issues with not all launchers firing that have creeper within radius.

Not as far as i know. And I recall seeing this video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XNEvShMnQyw) recently. Perhaps use the backspace key, take a screenshot and post it here and we'll see if we can explain your observation.

500 Launchers firing at once. I think there is no limit.

On a point of order, there seems to be 544 launchers firing at once. :)

Maybe there are 32 x 8 x 2 = 512  :)

Hmm, If so, I must have miscounted, since I knew I had a 17 in my calculation. :)

At anyrate that's somewhat of a testament to the stability of the game. most games even nowadays have a maximum effect limit where things just stop appearing and as such stop attacking. this effect limit is most likely vewry high because of the limits of hardware compared to say the days of Starcraft broodwar, where having an 8 player game with just cpus and yourself, putting on the power overwhelming cheat causes eventually to just have too many effects AND units ofn the map.
Very much a testament to how well CW2 is made :)
