Delevent and Flags

[Boco]

Rats!

Are you wed to the idea of flags? I've found it easier to maintain events code by using technologies instead. ReceivedTechnology is a recurring trigger without the JustOnce modifier.

By the way, great work on EA.

Thanks, but it sure seems easier to give dubious tips to someone else rather than write my own. I need to hunker down and make some serious edits in EAv2 events.

Are you using lots of @DELAY modifiers? As Catfish has discovered, these can add unexpected but significant memory requirements to your events: http://users.tpg.com.au/jpwbeest/index.htm

I think I have everything figured out. In the end I had to rely on giving a technology, which isn't good because I am planning on using a pretty substantial tech tree. If I ever release this thing (when it is finished, and it is a long way from that point) I may have to institiute a scrolling tech tree.
Thanks for all of your contributions!

Is it possible to re-import a map after all four maps have already been loaded?

Hmmm.... mapedit?

Sorry, I can't imagine it's possible, short of a major, complex hex edit.

[Alex Woehr]

Ouch. I guess that's what you get for poor planning. Thanks anyway.

Yes, you can do it with MapCopy:

Missed seeing the dm:n argument during my much-too-brief scan of the readme. Thanks!
