127 Limit

[Clervis]

For those who don't know, there is a limit of 127 sprites that can manifest on a level in two separate categories:

1) Items dropped on the ground; that is, after the 127th item, monsters will cease to drop.

2) Spell effects, including arrows; that is, only 127 projectiles can be traveling through the air at a time. Lightning counts as about 6 projectiles. Chain Lightning counts as many more, so it often it will "gap" once the 127 is hit, making the spell far less effective.

So my question is, has anybody ever modded this 127 limit to increase it, get rid of it, or possibly remove the sprite so that it doesn't matter?

Coke rules. Sprite does not matter. ;D

[Clervis]

Coke zero. Sprite one hundred and twenty seven.

I bet you could change the limit to 255 if you were actually really good at hex editing (I'm not), since it's the same bitwise magnitude as 127. Even just that would buff CL a lot.
