Huge money prob!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!: Stauts:Reported

Post by SilentAssassin »

In Noob, I had about 30mil. s 8)

I got home from work and it looked as if someone had switched the sign, to negative!! :shock:

So, instead of being the richest on the island, I ended up with debt up and over my eyeballs. :evil:

I commited suicide (*suicide) and uninstalled the program! :oops:

Can anybody tell me what happened?

I was thinking either an unsigned integer problem or someone pysically switched the sign.

yea, max cash that can be in one place is about 21mil
thats one place, meaning, can have 21mil on hand and 21mil in bank easily.
this also includes the top wealth list, it wont show over 21mil due to it looping back around.

It's probably near the end of the Long Integer. be thankful it wasn't just a normal, or we'd all be stuck around 65,000 and you can guess how much trouble that would cause on normal isles :wink:

Anyways yeah, it will cycle round. Think of it as one of those things that makes this game extra fun.
