Post any bugs you find here. But there aren't as many bugs that are really bugs and I don't already know about than when this first started, so also use this as a general conversation save, or to ask / tell me anything. #1 most commented save in tpt!

    Oh! And 255 being the max. element number probably has to do with an 8 bit system TPT uses! Same thing with the max. life of something (While the sim. isn't paused) is 65535, because it is 16 bit!

    When I said 24 bit, I means 32 bit. :P

    And on the other hand, 9,223,372,036,854,775,807 or 2^53-1, is the newer-ly used 64 bit limit used in electronics today. People decided to change from the 24 bit because in 2038, the 32 bit electronics would excede their 2^31-1 second limit, and probably do something bad. Very bad. So now that the 64 bit systems are in use, the next problem with numbers will be in 292 billion years from now. I think the universe will end before that happens....

    And because every computer/electronic thing in the world's time was set to a certain date as a 'starting point', when 2^31-1 seconds were reached (I forgot when this was, but it wasn't that long ago) they apperently spazzed out, like people thought would happen at Jan 1, 2000. 2^31-1 is (was) also the largest known prime number until 1851. So yeah...

    Lol I just figured out something cool that links up with a bunch of other things I've learned about recently. 2^31-1 or 2,147,483,647 is the largest value on a 32 bit scale for all programming languages. This caused some problems in computers and servers because they could only count up to 2^31-1 seconds.
