Increasing the Saved Character Slots

[RandolfTheMeh]

Yeah, so, I understand this isn't that big a deal for most people who play the game with 1, maybe 2 statics, but Certain Autists like to occasionally play gimmick characters here and there, which means that if you have 2 statics, you can only keep one gimmick character. Should you have worse, with 3 statics, that means that you need to swap one out each time you change to a gimmick character. The process itself is not too terribly difficult, but it is rather obnoxious to have to do so before the round begins, and the next round when you swap back to one of your statics. It'd be neat if we could get something like 4-5 save slots, so we can have a decent buffer, since even if you're functioning at dangerous levels of autism with 3 main statics, you can have a slot or two for gimmick characters when you get bored.

What determines the slots for private servers?

Because if you're really an autist then that would help instead of being limited to 3 slots on the private code server you own wtf

can't you create new byond accounts to get 3 more slots?

[Luke Cox]

Paying for slots gives you a sense of pride and accomplishment

3 feels like an arbitrary restriction, 5 would be a nicer amount IMHO but I don't know about you. It really does feel like you're forced to play 3 characters at most which cripples any creativity or desire to make new characters.

buy a byond membership if for some reason you have more than 3 regular characters, theyre cheap as dirt and you can make your ghost into a skeleton and dont get the artificial login delay
