I want to know the chat limit? How many lines do you need to make messages disappear from chat?

I am asking because I was making a boss yesterday, and I lost the message I wanted to copy after the boss.

You mean a limit of messages sent at local chennel?

Yes, exactly :)

ok it seemed somewhat dubious your question. You want to know how many messages the chat will hold until old ones get deleted? Is that what you want?

I would politely ask you to reword your question, please. It made me a little bit confused and I am not the only one apparently :)

I changed it a little but I think it was a clear question. Because as we know chat has some limits. Messages disappear after unknow amount of lines. And I want to know how many lines it takes before it lose our message.

Yes, I just tested it out. I saved my local chat on a .txt file, then copied it to an excel, to count the lines.

The maximum amount of lines is 1,000

After that, whenever a new msg is sent, the oldest one will disappear.

I have noticed some actions will delete messages written in the chat channels. Especially spells as they are basically written text. This is not due to text limit but some text (the spell words) replacing what was previously written, then, by the action of casting... <Enter> being pushed.

That being said there is a 232 character space limit in chat channels

Edit: I was up to 712 lines for the edited question when I saw Fire_Draggon beat me to it lol
