I'm trying to dump a very large string to a script however I keep getting the "String too long" error when setting the source for that script.
I am able to sub it and I tried gradually adding the string by subbing it in certain places with a loop and adding it like that however there is no way to add to the source so I am still stuck with it becoming too big.
How big is the max limit when setting the source and can you guys think of any better ways around this? |

| I think it holds as much as a String Value, so 200,000 characters (maybe). |

@Blocco could you elaborate?
@bohdan77 You can when you use a plugin. |
