gspawn: no free entities

(mrfin) #1

Hello mapping types

This is the error message I get when I attempt to run my map:
gspawn: no free entities

Is this because I have too many entities in the map?
(i have just installed loads of trigger once sound triggers btw.)

Also, is there a limit to the amount of entities a map can hold?

yeah, therei s some kind of limit with all triggers I believe.

TOI’s = 18 max
so the rest must have a limit, hopefully we can get SD to answer on this b4 the source code goes public.

there is a limit to the ammount of entities in a map, i think its 256, but im not too sure

Do a search using “entities and limit”. THere are a couple of threads which address this. I think the limit may be something like 1024

Thanks all

I reduced the quantity of the triggered sounds and all is fine again,

Question: can anyone plz. point me to a topic or info on how to trigger sounds intermittently by using the script? Ideally a random setting would be better if possible.

Thanks

you should use the in-game speaker editor instead of using target_speaker’s in your map : http://www.planetquake.com/simland/ldr1_1/speakereditor.htm
