I don't know how to do that. Finding objects internal ID require to be able to read h3m format. Some objects which I added in early stage of map design work correctly. But if you add now any pickable object, will not work, number of total objects is 40000+.

I know their ERM type/subtype, but here is different, right?

Well I suppose ERM types/subtypes are exactly the same as in .h3m

55h = 85 - Resource (Wood, Ore, ..., Gold), right?

I am not sure. Here is ERM type list. Subtypes are in parentheses when different than zero.

If I make a small map where you can place all visitable objects by right-click, would it help to identify their ID? I can do that.

So far I tested:

Creature banks, creature dwellings, bonus objects (learning stone etc), windmills, water mills and seer huts do not need ID swap. They work.

Border gates, quest gates, resources, chests, monsters, artefacts and towns need ID swap. First do not vanish when picked/defeated, towns do not update when build something inside.

Thanks. Indeed, an object number is considered as a signed word (-32768 .. 32767). I have found the instructions causing the problem. I'm thinking about patching the executable, if possible.

Well, the problem has been successfully solved. Have you noticed weird problems with saving/loading? These have been solved too. I think I'll post my patch after some testing. Now you can place up to 65535 objects on a map.

2itsjustme: OK, but again - this hasn't been tested properly. Change the byte at AA82E to B7. That simple.

Nope, there is another one with load/save. I think it has the same origin.

Now they should behave in a correct way. So, I think you may wish to move further and finish this awesome map?

Noticed that that bug with loading is present only when you save a game on 111. Try, for example, to save a game on 112 and it just disappears. Very strange...

You are right. Then it is not noticeable, firstly there is nothing to pick/fight on first day, secondly I can disable save on first day only if really necessary. Just hoping that the day variable is not some redundant data which may come again later...
