The status of FORT-768724 incident has been moved from ‘In Testing’ to ‘Closed’. Resolution Reason: ‘Fixed’

I am also having this issue. please let me know when/if you find the exact limit.
perhaps it is 65,536 as that is 2^16??

That sounds around where the issue happens, yeah. Don’t have an exact number.

I know this is being looked at, I’ll check on status.

This will be fixed in a future update.

your mileage may vary but I’m certain it’s either 65,536 or 65,535 right now – I am now able to Launch Session after deleting some unnecessary actors in my level that players will never see and getting beneath that 65,53X limit

thank you @Flak !

Flak please also be aware that there is a similar issue with a limit on the amount of changes that can be checked in. I think that artificial limit is ~100,000 changes. Once you get to this point, any attempt to check in changes will fail after seemingly hitting 100% on the progress bar. Failure code says TooManyFiles or TooManyChanges if I remember correctly

I also have this issue as I’m making a large project. It doesn’t exactly crash at 65,53x for me, I can add like 200 more to that at maximum.

are there any updates on this, or a timetable for when we should be able to have more actors in our projects? and if yes, what will that limit be?

I think it just got fixed
