Why can't LotB count higher than 99?

[Shifter]

Can you guys elaborate a little more about this? I been having this issue about not being able to buy anything in the trooper store. How do you solve this?

If you have all your shard slots full it will not let you buy anything with trooper points. you need to clear out at least one stack of the shard items. Not just 1 shard of xx, the whole stack, to free up that space.

Changing the maximum from 99 can actually help with sorting when you are required to sell for space. Something that I really hate doing. If they upped the number to 999 space would rarely be an issue and those hours of playing would not be wasted. I really don't see why there is a limit on how many runes and shards I can save, I mean I did earn them by playing. It's like I'm being punished for playing too much.

Is Changing the Stack Total from 99 to 999 not an easy solution?

Sadly, no. Even then, that change would at best make it slightly more rare, but I've personally reproduced the bug with not having max-sized stacks, so it may not even reduce the amount of people hitting the problem by much.

1) its not easy said Sparton
1) it occurs even with without maxed stacks

Maybe its something else, that we cant imagine.Too much speculation.

I saw that also but with stacks of 999 it would occur less often and you would be able to have more materials. I'm not only suggesting this to fix the bug but because stacks of 99 limit the amount of resources a hardcore player can store without being penalized for playing allot.

I'm with you about hardcore players should not have limits on resources.
I just translate 'Even then, that change would at best make it slightly more rare' into 'same s**t' , that's what I'm saying,

Got ya. It would be just a quick fix that doesn't resolve the real problem.

[OpticSugar]

I wasn't suggesting this fix as resolving any real bugs... I just find it to be a frequently occurring annoying nag that I cannot understand why it even needs to happen. Just up (or remove) the limit so we don't have to be constantly housecleaning in the dark instead of playing the game.

Thank you! i will try to clear out some stacks.

And back to the topic.

I believe one of the reasons why they don't want to do it is because of the players file. increasing the number of materials allowed will increase the size of the player's file making it more difficult for the server to read and probably causing more bugs

That's very logical,any tech has those in their planning in advance , no doubt about that.

Except,these database aren't containing those items as they have physical weight,
think of each shard has atleast 2 lb/pounds,
imagine the weight of samurai eddie with its armor suit! that's huge!!

how big you imagine these db containing simple text file can become!!!
