<warning>There's a 4095 slots Network limit. If you need more, consider using the <page>net</page> library or <page>Global.SetGlobal2String</page>. You should also consider the fact that you have way too many variables. ⤶
This limit is shared among all entities, SetNW* and SetGlobal* functions and <page>util.AddNetworkString</page>. If you exceed the limit, you cannot create new variables, and you will get the following warning. ⤶
```lua ⤶
Warning: Table networkstring is full, can't add [key]⤶
```⤶
Existing variables will still get updated without the warning. You can check the limit by counting up until <page>util.NetworkIDToString</page> returns nil</warning> returns nil</warning>⤶
<note>If you want to have a higher characters limit use <page>Global.SetGlobal2String</page></note>⤶
