I'm not sure, but i've not found any further information about this.

I'm creating a HQM-ModPack at the moment and i've 935 Quests ready so far. At this point i can't create more quests - is this a hard-limit or maybe a bug?

Is there any chance to increase this limit? - i need in sum about 1,5k for my mod-pack to be complete ;)

I'd like to know that as well.

@icyevilfantasy Could you upload the json extract for the quests somewhere? (if it is a bit delicate since it is unreleased we could figure out other ways, but that might involve dropping by on IRC) Cause I don't have the time to make 935 quests :p

Of course i could give you me json-export for these quests but i think there is an easier way to debug without any dependencies.

I've created a set named "Pool" and created 1 empty quest in there. Then export it to json ... edit this with an editor you like and copy+pasty a bunch (about 1023) quests in there.

After that you can remove this Quest-Set named "Pool" und reload it from the json file. You should quickly get to the limit of creating quests.

btw: i'm testing at the moment to create more than 1023 quests with these trick but after saving 1030 quests & reloading the whole game - a lot of my quests will be removed so that it's dropping from 1037 quests to about 127.

give me some minutes ... i'll prepare the Pool.json for you ;)

Following steps to reproduce:

• Create a Pool.json in your hqm config directory with the following content: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=BjD6H5sX
• Make sure you have an empty quest book (by deleting "quests.hqm" and the backup file)
• Make sure you starting in HQM edit-mode
• Create a new world (in creative for editing the questbook)
• import the Pool.json with /hqm load Pool
• activate quest mode with /hqm quest
• open your quest book
• go to the Pool Quest Set (you should have exactly 1021 quests in there)
• try to create new quests
• you should be able to create 2 more quests and than it stops
• even if you are removing quest - you are unable to create new ones

Further more:

• Rename the Quest Set "Pool" into "Pools"
• import the Pool.json with /hqm load Pool a second time
• now you should have about 2042 quests
• save your quest book changes
• quit the game
• start the game
• enter your world
• activate quest mode with /hqm quest
• open your quest book
• the quests are dropped from about 2042 quests to about 1020 quests

I'm not a Java-Pro but i think the bottleneck is:

• https://github.com/lorddusk/HQM/blob/master/src/main/java/hardcorequesting/network/DataBitHelper.java#L23

    QUESTS(10) {
        @Override
        public int getBitCount(FileVersion version) {
            return version.lacks(FileVersion.SETS) ? 7 :  super.getBitCount(version);
        }
    },

• https://github.com/lorddusk/HQM/blob/master/src/main/java/hardcorequesting/network/DataBitHelper.java#L118

    public int getMaximum() {
        if (!hasMaximum) {
            hasMaximum = true;
            cachedMaximum = (1 << bitCount) - 1;
        }

        return cachedMaximum;
    }

I hope this will help a bit ...

I've loaded an older revision of my quests.hqm with 929 Quests.

I can reproduce this now ... i create 6 more quests so that i reach the 935 Quests and at this point i can't create more quests - even if i delete this 6 new ones.

There must be an internal counter or something else that prevents me from creating new quests.

Sorry for that - i don't want to push anyone.

A simple feedback like "this won't be fixed" (maybe for technical reasons) or "this will be fixed - stay tuned" will be enough for now ;)

It might, it's already been upped once before as you can see in the code.
So upping it again might cause more problems than it solves.

Any news/feedback on this issue? - maybe an ETA? ;)

Never ask for an ETA.
