Re: Please help testing vertex limit!

seems like grass vertices are not a part of the normal 5130 limit that is correct. There're the following limits: 300 polygons; 1000 vertices per polygon (both grass and non-grass); 5130 vertices in non-grass polygons; 10000 pixels width for a grass polygon; 12000 pixels height for a level.

Re: The next generation EOL server

Nice suggestion. However, I don't see a way to trigger rec download with hotkey. So I guess that the easiest way would be a chat command. I will add a special system user (I realized I need it anyway) and different PMs to that user will trigger different actions.
