Summary	0003043: Renderer has a limit of 10000 handles
Description	The renderer has a hard-coded limit of 10000 render slots. It is a bit unclear on wether this limit can be hit without having actually that many entities (currently TDM allows at most 8192 entities), but it might be possible to hit this by having one entity being presented multiple times to the renderer. Raising the limit should not hurt, as no memory is allocated until something is presented to the renderer. Not raising the limit prevents us from raising the entity limit, tho.
Additional Information	The limit is set as LUDICROUS_INDEX inside renderer/RenderWorld_local.h
Tags	No tags attached.

tels 02.03.2012 18:33 reporter ~0004365	The render limit is now 2 16 for the entity number. We currently only use up to 2 13, but if we ever raise the limit, this will come in handy.
