Readstring only returns first character of string #55

Closed twhitcomb closed 11 years ago

Taken from the addresses page,

local gametype_name = readstring(0x671340, 0x0, 0x2C)

The above gives a syntax error since readstring only takes two arguments now instead of three, but when I do this:

local gametype_name = readstring(0x671340, 0x2C)

It only returns the first character of the gametype name.

Try readwidestring

Derp. What's the character limit for something to be considered a wide string?

urbanyoung commented 11 years ago

I think it's 80 wide characters, which is 160 bytes.
