ET was not designed for "XP Forever".   :)  The TAB-display will show your correct XP, but when it goes over 64K, your playing screen will show it becoming negative and eventually increasing to a positive number again.   65536 - 67043 = -1507  

 

The numbers will never be the same again.   :)   

 

I am not sure where the negative sign comes from, unless these are stored as some kind of "packed decimals" and the 64k +1 overflows into the sign bit.

 

ADDED:  I was just spectating you on Jay #1 and trying to catch your numbers while you were firing the mortar.

 

After three tries, I finally got 67421 - 1885 = 65536 (64k)

 

67421 from TAB display

  1885 from your HUD (no - sign)

 

That still does not explain the sign for the negative numbers that we see in our HUDs sometimes.

Hi thanks

the minus sign was there went to 0 then i started gaining ingame xp without the minus

the xp that shows in the tab did not have a minus symbol

the player that filed , did say in a pm after i asked him why he filed he said " what are you crying now that your xp is -368 i did it because i hate your face" lol whatever . he was pming the admin and other players vulgar messages

then was kicked said"player chit shit ___ ___ kicked learn some respect" i dont know the admin on at the time

ok thanks
