Increase limit on Max Players Slider

[John-Dean]

The limit I think used to be 300, now it's 50.

Would it be possible to up to to 250, which is the maximum you can get on a map (80v80v80 in WvW +10 dev slots). Aware the addon doesn't work in WvW, but ANet has never exceeded that limit.

I had it at 80 pre-update, and now it defaults to off every time I zone.

I'll set the limit to 250 for the next update, any recommendation for the limit of max player owned?

[John-Dean]

In theory the maximum is something like 19x the player count (5x from lich elite on necro, 5x from rise, 5x from traits, 4x from utilities and heal skill. I think a reasonable limit is 100 on the slider. As it stands the slider can be manually typed into, could you make the limit 100 and allow people to go higher by typing into it?

Just released new version with updated limits.
In the interface the slider limits are 250 and 100, hard limit for manual input is 1000 which is checked when the plugin loads.

It seems broken for me. I keep getting all players hidden when using any value except unlimited on the slider. Pressing force show shows them properly, but if they go out of range and come back they don't load in.

Edit, did some manual checks, above issues are:
Caused by v2026.2.20.1

Not present in: v2026.2.18.1

For clarity, when a new player is loaded on screen (be it through zoning map or them moving into render distance) the addon is incorrectly hiding them. Updating the addon settings, or pressing "Force Visibility" shows them - but doesn't show any new players that load after that point.

Okay uninstalling, reinstalling then using these settings:

seems to have fixed it

The latest version now has updated logic around counting visible characters, it previously used to just check if the model was loaded or not, but now it also checks if they are actually on-screen.

The new version seems to eat my ESC key presses, when it's unabled it doesn't let me press ESC to exit any windows in game. Unloading it restores the functionality.

Yeah I messed up the hotkey system when fixing the performance issue in .2, it should be fixed in .3

[John-Dean]

The download for .3 downloads 2026.2.23.2 for me

Tried both auto update through nexus and a manual install

[server-imp]

I got a bit mixed up with the version numbers due to the date shifting, new version has been released that should fix the escape key issue
