Fallout 2 mod Is there a limit on the number of random encounters maps?

[Argoth]

For example, I created 10 extra random encounter maps and I want to add them into the world map.

My question is if there's a limit to this number, and if yes, is there a way to raise it?

Encounter maps are defined in the encounter table of the worldmap.txt file. I'm not aware of any limitation there, except for the usual map / location limit.

What sort of encounters?

What sort of encounters?

Generic, repeatable encounters such as raiders, animals, etc., not special encounters.

The limit is probably 50 encounters per table, as that's the maximum amount of strings per table that can be assigned in the worldmap.msg file. A way around it would be to create more encounter tables and assign them "finer" to the worldmap cells. But truth told, if you need 50+ different encounters, imo you're doing something wrong.

That said, this has nothing to do with the actual encounter maps. No idea if there is a limit. Nobody ever tried to hit it or needed to.
