Baldur's Gate : The Sword Coast Chronicles : NWN2 Persistent World

Right now, the limit is 10k characters (not words!) This amount is reached faster than one might expect; I compiled the Candlekeep Storytelling Festival stories into IG books and had to use three books to include them all.

Can this limit be raised so that longer works can be created, please?

2 bytes per character, doubling 10k to 20k characters is 40kb sizes, for 0.04 MB, I think that's suitable so long as NWN2 doesn't throw a fit over it and we never exceed 10MB for the entire library. (250 books in total each at 20k characters)

This was a pretty easy fix. The in-game book still displays a 10,000 character limit but it should be much better now.

After Aeili already wrote 24 IG books with a 10000 character cap?

As above, this has been done. You may now write to your heart's content.

Actually... there is still a problem! The IG text box will not permit more than 10k characters to be added. Can that be adjusted?

(And could a moderator please put this back in a non-closed discussion forum? )

Polite nudge!

Have you guys thought about adding a way to set book contents via chat command?

Chat command would allow people to copy/paste stuff into a book via client extender's message window. That window does not have a character limit. So someone would be able to prepare a book offline, then paste it into an in-game book.

... I think that having a chat command would still be a good idea.
