Title: Connection Limit
Post by: desviper on June 15, 2009, 02:18:33 PM
What is the connection limit?:?

I found that it is 13 with the baseplate anchor, I have many mods and DSL.

Are you into bot file editing ?

Or you're talking about something else...

I pretty much want to know how to edit the connection limit, knowing what it is helps, also where it is (if that makes any sense).

Do you mean you have 13 items on the baseplate anchor, or 13 items in a chain on the anchor?

(https://gametechmods.com/uploads/images/8182913 connection.JPG) 10+11 are dual layer DSL bar, 12+13 are 40to30 bars off screen, this is a chain I don't know if that has anything to do with it.

Theorically you can put 3906 DSL extenders on a baseplate if you're doing it right...so no.

No not really, I do not know crap about modding RA2.
And by the way, I tried attaching extenders off a baseplate anchor, got to 7, wouldn't let me do more.

Well ok, now how to edit this is the question, Is the text file, or another one.

There is no way to edit it.

Then you know nothing. Apanx got 8.

Why did he stop at 8?

He tried to go to 9, but then a ninja from Atari smashed through his roof and ripped his lungs out. We were left with this cryptic message PM'ed to all who were thought to be "threats" to this sacred rule: "Thou shalt not break the 7 extender limit."

We haven't seen much of Apanx since, as he is still in hiding, but every now and then, he finds a way to share his heretic discoveries with us.

Nope it was Infogrames that made it... a French company... but Atari took it from us.

Post by: R0B0SH4RK on June 16, 2009, 05:47:42 PM
Well, kind of. Atari is a branch of Infogrames, so you gave it to Atari.
Title: Connection Limit
Post by: Sage on June 16, 2009, 06:05:29 PM
I've emailed infogrames, atari, and Gabriel interactive, as well as posted in multiple technical support threads asking for the source code, but have gotten no response. oh well.

Many have begged for the source code.... but no go.

Here's an older bot that I took some pics of:
14 serial components(held off the Ninja) :
