DMB error generation

[Quinn Inuit]

I have the opposite of the normal problem here. I think my DMB is over the 255 limit, but I can't figure out how to generate the error that tells me for sure. What will, without fail, generate the error if I'm over 255?

I believe you get a very clear message when you hit the limit (sth along of the lines of max DMB records exceeded, or similar).

What`s stopping you from counting the number of entries you have? The word "type" for example only occurs once in every entry.

Right, but when do I get that message? When the game turns on, when I start a custom battle with the last unit in the DMB,...?

I tried that and came out with 258. But I haven't been able to generate an error message, despite trying both of the things I mentioned in my reply to Aradan right there.

I get the message when starting the game. If you don't get it perhaps another error is 'masking' it?

[Quinn Inuit]

Thanks for the info. Now I at least know when to expect it.

Nope, I'm getting no errors at all. I was even able to go into a custom battle with what I thought were units 257 and 258 on the list.

[Aradan]

Perhaps some units are commented out (searching for the term "type" would still bring up 255+ results)?

[Quinn Inuit]

There are definitely a lot commented out. A search for "type" by itself brings up 312, but searching for ";type" and "; type" brings up 60 and 5, respectively.

Wait a second. Sorry, I apparently can't do simple subtraction anymore. Nevermind. I'm sorry to have troubled you all.
