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.

ᴄʜᴇᴇsᴇ ɪᴛ!

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.

How high can a death counter be before reaching into buffer overflow?
And would add/subbing 1000's, 10000's or 100000's of deaths in an action create any/anynoticable lag?

Thanks

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.
