None.
Death Counters
Would add/subbing 1000's, 10000's or 100000's of deaths in an action create any/anynoticable lag?
Thanks

Why don't you test it on a map.
None.

Buffer overflow comes from nonstandard units (unitID 3849). Any of the normal units are fine, and can't go higher than that huge number (see map limits). It can't go lower than 0 by subtraction either.

Modifying dcs doesn't create lag.

KaiasHow high can a death counter be before reaching into buffer overflow?

Do you mean using extended deaths? Or the max number a death counter can store? It is either 4294967295 or 2147483648 (depending on wheter it is a signed value or not).
Also subtracting/adding any value takes the same time.

NudeRaider -- EUD actions, specifically. The conditions remained. Today we can even have actions again, but they're all virtualized/whitelisted (not sure on the actual technical implementation) so you can only use them for specific intended purposed, not arbitrary code injections.[2026-7-16. : 6:26 am]
NudeRaider -- I mean yes, maps - through EUDs - were theoretically able to do that as well, but that was patched quickly.[2026-7-16. : 6:25 am]
NudeRaider -- SymmetrySymmetry shouted: Ohhh imagine a SC map that could delete itself
not the map, the editor[2026-7-16. : 2:28 am]
Symmetry -- I vaguely remember Voy doing some ACE back in the day, but I had no idea EUDs could do that kind of shit. I am very much catching up on the technology[2026-7-15. : 8:51 pm]
NudeRaider -- SymmetrySymmetry shouted: NudeRaider Is EUD editor capable of writing shit onto the player's harddrive? That seems like it would be dangerous
yeah an editor that isn't allowed to write files sounds rather pointless, so I'd assume it can. Like most other programs too btw. and yes, obviously that's dangerous, but also kinda necessary. MS introduced that virtualization for exactly that reason.[2026-7-15. : 4:10 am]
Ultraviolet -- I don't think so. I think they shut that shit down after 1.16, maybe even earlier
