Is there a max flag amount?
Battlecraft starts with 2(normally the main bases) and allows you to drop 6 more. I have added one manually for a total of 9 flags on numerous occasions/maps. In my current Interstate map, I added 3 extra flags for a total of 11. The map crashes upon loading. I'm not sure if this is the problem yet...has anyone encountered this before? Any suggestions?

7 was always the limit I thought.

Yes the game is limited to 7. However you can skirt that limit a little by using uncappable base flags as they won't count towards the limit. So you can have 7 cappable flags and 2 or more base uncap flags.

Okay. Thanks!
This is a training/obstacle course style map featuring an array of is82 vehicles to use. I was hoping for a flag to cap after each section. But, after some brain storming I have found a way to keep the flag count to 7 and still use all the tracks laid out...
I guess this case is closed gentlemen.

I have managed to add additional flag icons to the meme file for the ingame HUD awhile back when I was experimenting with this in my BFH'42 mod. But the game still crashes.
Perhaps we can enlist Tuia to find a fix for that in the EXE. I bet it's just a simple integer/addressing related issue that limits it like for example the max player count for servers that Tuia managed to increase awhile back.

Feel free to inquire sir.
However, I will be releasing this map within the next week or 2 over at is82.com....so for now, I am okay with 7 flags.
