Is there a string limit on this? I have one string with 16 characters and it works fine. I have another with 17 and it just won't work. For some reason this is my weak point when it comes to coding.

It deppends of the string type to store the result into. X@v strings have a limit of 16 characters. X@s string have a limit of 4 characters.

If you're trying to make something like "languages", take a look at the power of .fxt and that opcode

Someone who knows no more than the OP shouldn't reply either.

@s variables consist of 8 bytes and therefore they're able to store up to 7 characters as summing that is NULL terminated.
@v variables consist of 16 bytes and therefore they're able to store up to 15 characters as summing that is NULL terminated.

So how can I increase the characters it can have? I hate this allocating byte aspect lol

You can do this:

CODE

:myStringSpace
hex
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00   // 16 bytes
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00   // 16 bytes
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00   // 16 bytes
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00   // 16 bytes
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00   // 16 bytes
end

Somewhere in the code, you'll have to get a pointer to this label:

CODE

0AC6: get_label_pointer @myStringSpace store_to 0@

Or you can use getLabelOffset CLEO SCM function that you can find somewhere (use Google).
