Level cap? - Nean - 22-09-2008
I've been looking through the code, and as far as I can tell, theres no level cap, or exp limit? Would that be included as a bug? Or are level caps, a feature?

It could potentially be a bug, because if you have a freakish user who goes beyond the level data set in your server (I think it's a Long or Integer... which would be absolutely crazy to reach a level to overflow the server >.

Call SetPlayerExp(Index, 0)

Thanks. XD Knew I'd be wrong about something in it.
Not bad with sinuses and a monotone professor lol.

That method will reset their xp to 0, allowing them to fill it all the time. Lol. Just do this:
Code:
If GetPlayerLevel(Index) + 1 > SetAmountHere Then
Exit Sub
End IfRe: Level cap? - Kousaten - 23-09-2008
I suppose you could use that method to make a system to "spend" EXP for things like special items, extra stat bonuses, quests, etc. :3

No. Most games let you go, to say level 80 with 100% exp bar and leave it at that. It looks better than resetting the exp bar everytime you "level". If you're gonna have a cap, do it properly and cap it. When you fill a bottle, you put a cap on it. You don't empty it and fill it again.

I like that idea. The other losing all your exp, start over, thing is way over-used. Thanks for the idea. =)
