How do I adjust the maximum attribute value?
« on: June 17, 2017, 03:22:35 pm »
I've been rooting around in the source code for a couple hours now with no results. I'm trying to figure out how to adjust the maximum attribute to whatever arbitrary number I decide. I found a MAXATTRIBUTE define but that's set to 99, so that's obviously not the culprit. Where's the code which sets attribute upper bounds to 20?

The upper bound is not 20. If you note, a yoga instructor (starts with health 10) who gets up to 1000 juice will have have a health stat of 21 :)

The ranges are defined in Creatures.xml, which sets the default maximum stat for most classes at 10. There are a few classes that can have more than this (hippies have higher heart, etc.), but that's the general rule. Your founder is not restricted by this limit.

Huh, I thought it was capped at 20 for the founder. I stand corrected! Thanks.
