: I have made level "Willow Greek" and in my
: skills says that my Dwarf kill 156, but where says
: "Heroes" says that he killed only 127.
: Than I passed to another and another, and I made all solo
: levels with this Dwarf, but it allways says that he
: has killed 127 in SB campaign.

that's because the variable declared by the program for the number of kills is only 8 bits (giving a range of -128 to 127, and yes it is possible to give units negative kills). if the number were allowed to spill above 127 in game it would flip to -128, which would be very nasty for the player.

this was discussed in the other part of this thread.
