ERA3 crashes when loading super large scripts
The script is all about change terrain, move view, set delay, and function calls. Below are what I found in debugERA directory.
erm memory dump.txt:

Did you try to use more recent Era version like 3.91 or 3.93?
I tried 3.92, result is the same.

Usually scripts, altering terrain, like passable terrain, corrupt internal map data and crash occurs because of corruption, not ERM scripts size.
But the scripts aren't running on loading. They have to be triggered in game.

any chance to make passable terrain working without crashes?

Another issue: Is there a limit for lines of receivers following a trigger? When I have a script like:
!?LE...
!!TR... (many many lines)
When ther trigger fires, only the last portion of receivers executed(may be 65535 lines?). Thus I feel there is a limit. If so, how can I remove the limit?

There is no limit. And why don't you use loops?
!!re i/0/15/1/-1;
do something 15 times, i will count from 0 to 14
!!en;
The codes are generated, can't loop unless load from file which is too slow.
And I never seen "!!re" and "!!en" in ERM Help, they must be ERM3. Where can I find ERM3 Help?

The limit definitely exists.
I tried the codes below:
ZVSE2
!?LE143/142/0;
!!IF:M^0^;
!!IF:M^1^;
...
!!IF:M^65534^;
it works correctly.
But if I add
!!IF:M^65535^;
at the end, then NO message pops up.
And then I add
!!IF:M^65536^;
at the end, only 65536 pop up.
Seperate these codes into different functions solves the problem, but when there are about 190k lines of codes, the game crashes on load. No terrain changes this time, just messages.

I can confirm that function has 65536 line limit (including !?FU line).
Can not find where limit is defined.
I check it by script with 260k+ lines (~4Mb).
Problem Finally describe occurs when long function code "fall out" of function after 65536 lines. That code is treated as regular code (not in function) and probably cause crash when game execute script.
@Finally
This is limitation at this moment. All you can do is separate code in functions with less then 65536 lines.
@Bersy
Any idea where to put brakepoint in code to see what lines of script belong to which function?

But the game crashes when loading, not when the codes executing.
And it's not the number of lines in the function matters, but the total lines matters. I tried 500 functions and 400 lines each function, or 250 functions and 800 lines each function, both crashes.

Can you share script so I can try it locally? I can throw quick look on it.
Or
Try to narrow down problem and find what line fail.

The codes below works.
ZVSE2
!?LE143/142/0;
!!FU1:P;
!!FU2:P;
!!FU3:P;
!?FU1;
!!IF:M^1^;
!!IF:M^2^;
...
!!IF:M^63869^;
!?FU2;
!!IF:M^1^;
!!IF:M^2^;
...
!!IF:M^63869^;
!?FU3;
!!IF:M^1^;
!!IF:M^2^;
...
!!IF:M^63869^;
And if I add
!!IF:M^63870^;
to the end of each function, a message pops up:
no_memory_for_erm_optimization
and no crash this time, but the trigger won't work.
if I then add
!!IF:M^63871^;
to the end of each function, then it crashes like before.

Uh, why use 60 000 lines for a function that can be done as loop in 3 lines?

It's just an example. the actual codes can't loop efficiently.

google number 65535,that have hint for this problem, some information from wikipedia, 65535 is the integer after 65534 and before 65536.
It is the maximum value of an unsigned 16-bit integer.[1], it,s cannot be coincidence 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/65,535 For more information.
