Yep, this is a known issue (we were even discussing it again yesterday afternoon). At the moment the precision for string types is defaulting to "max", but due to the row size limits of MySQL and for the sake of a more sensible, consistent default we'll probably change it back to 255 for string types. So if developers need to increase the size of their particular string property then they can do so using the db precision attribute. And for the properties across all the FarCry types we'll specify the precision so that the row sizes aren't unnecessarily large. -- You received this message cos you are subscribed to "farcry-dev" Google group.
