How many ablities per element can a server handle?

[MeskenasBoii]

This question wondering If there could be a max of 81 that Core might introduce. Pretty exaggrated number I guess and would probalbly cause the server to crash and encounter other technical interfaring issues, but now I wonder: How many PK will/might introduce abilities per element (that is, If they plan to balance the number between all 4/5 fighting styles)? What will the limit be?

I don't quite understand what you are asking or if this is a suggestion or a question but... The only hard limit on abilities is a max of 4,294,967,295 abilities active at one time. That includes passive (which are always active) and exceeding that limit causes some abilities to be overridden.

Apart from that, there's no hard limit on abilities and I don't think there needs to be. If a server has so many abilities that it lags, its up to the server owner to do something about it lol

This is a question, of a technical and developmental. Depending on how many an average server can't handle of that data, then its up concept designers how many they would limit too (*scrolling past through +100 list of abilities on one element would be hella annoying*)

I don't see how would you think this a suggestion, because this post doesn't propose anything.

It sounds like a suggestion that you are unsure of yourself.

As I said, there really isn't a need for it. There isn't even that many moves available. But if someone wants to make it confusing by adding 80 moves, why not let them? lol

@StrangeOne101 He is wondering wether there could be so many abilities put into PK Core that it would need to be limited to a certain number. (I think)

I don't think that Core would grow to become that massive to become as you said and I don't believe that it is going to be a problem with addon abilities either, even if you have jedcore and 20 addon abilities installed.

But in your hypothetical situation the problem wouldn't come from the number the problem will come from wether the resources each ability uses and that is completely different for each ability. So its not a limit as to how many abilities there are, but how many resources all the abilities collectivley use and how much is left over after that.

Well thats my theory on it at least, and as Strange said if it ever comes to a point where the server owner has too many abilities and their server lags it is up to them to solve it.

Oooo this is interesting. I expected to hear that tooooo many zillion of abilities may cause serios issues on the server, but you inform as if that's nothing, lol. Regarding keeping the plugin fun and all, how many maximum of number of abilities we should expect to get in the following future updates? 20-30? Concept designer decision wise that is. (Not sure If I formed the question correctly ._.)
