Hardcoded limit on the number of EQUIPSLOTS ?

[ZupaleX]

Hello,

 

correct me if I am wrong but i looks like there is a limit on the numer of equipslots that can be added through mods.

When reaching the eigth equipslots (reached using the regular "hands", "body" and "torso", to which is added "back" and "neck" from Extra Equip Slot, the "quiver" from Archery Mod, the "drug" slots from Apothecary Medicamento and the "waist" slot from EES API Edition), the game displays the following error

 

Net partial byte (8) out of range [0, 7]

Error serializing lua state for entity hammer[108643]

Net partial byte (8) out of range [0, 7]

Error serializing lua state for entity crossbow[108651]

Net partial byte (8) out of range [0, 7]

Error serializing lua state for entity spear[108671]

 

 

It took me some time to understand it was related to the custom equipslots, but I noticed that the error disappear as soon as one of the extra equip slot is removed. Then maybe I am wrong?

 

If not, then I was wondering if it would be possible to increase this limitation?

 

 

EDIT : and I think I am right.

When you equip something here is what is called

 

    self.inst.replica.equippable:SetEquipSlot(equipslot)

 

This function is 

 

function Equippable:SetEquipSlot(eslot)

    self._equipslot:set(EQUIPSLOT_IDS[eslot])

end

 

and finally 

 

    self._equipslot = net_tinybyte(inst.GUID, "equippable._equipslot")

 

It's a tinybyte which is a 3-bits unsigned integer, so the max is 2^2 + 2^1 + 2^0 = 7

 

Could it be raised?

I would like this raised as well.
