Yeah death counters are better than switches.
Except that you can't randomize death counters
None.
Okay man, you definitely are not using those switches efficiently, I see no reason to ever use that many, I would definitely switch to
Death Counts, they allow you to use one death count for the same variable that differs for each player, and since there are over 200 units, and 8 players that can effectively use Deaths, that gives you about 1600 variables to work with
Not to mention you can have more than 0 or 1 as values on them, so if you needed more you could use different numbers to represent different things.
None.

That's why I use 1 switch occasionally.
"Parliamentary inquiry, Mr. Chairman - do we have to call the Gentleman a gentleman if he's not one?"
Yeah, in the
Switches tutorial on my website is shows a method of randomizing death counts that allows you to get as many outcomes as you want(in binary powers) as you want, only using 1 switch.
None.
Dont switches take up your String limit too?
None.
Their names, that's all, and most compressions will make them null, so they actually end up taking no space at all. Of course, unless you do not rename your death counts, they also take up space, and compressors do not make those null.

Only noobs rename death counts.

Only noobs rename death counts.
Woops
I donno, I find it makes it a bit easier, and I always change them all back when I'm done
None.
I do stuff and thingies... Try widening and reducing the number of small nooks and crannies to correct the problem.
I rename them if I don't want to have a big list next to me.
That is getting hard when you have about 20 dcs...

Reminds me of people who think only noobs name their variables longer than 1 letter.
None.
The real solution is to change your trigger system so that it does not require so many switches. What in your map requires over two hundred switches?
DTBK said it plainly on the last page. Until the guy who started this thread comes back and explains what he's trying to do so we can help him come up with a more efficient system, anything else anyone posts in this thread is just spam.
None.
Wow... I guess DC R more effective... its too late now but i'll start using em since ive already used all my switchs. thx guys...
None.
