is there a limit for variable?

[canons200]

as topic shown, is there a limit for how many number of variables can be store in the variables storage? 1000? 2000?

or by far, how many variables you have been used and yet it is still working perfectly?

wow, quite a lot, so far my map takes up about 500 variables, i think it will still increased. Anymore from anyone?

If there is a limit, I have not seen it reported.

I have heard of large numbers of initialized variables (such as initializing 8190 array members to zero) causing long map loading, though.

i ask this because on my expectation, my map will ended with around 4000++ variables, if there is a limit then i will have to reuse those existed variables.

But keep on reusing the same variable will overlap the previous variable, at such i try to use new variable for new action.

Anyway thank for your information, Darthfett, i will assume there is not limit. ^^

There is no limit for Jass maps, GUI based map will fail after 4k.

every variable and every array is inited (initial value is given) after some point you will hit oplimit, and your map will fail to load propetly.

oplimit is around 16k, but this include every trigger, every variable, every index of array and any other action performed at map init (including creation of preplaced units and regions).
