RE: Amnesia: The Second Dimension [Not out of the woods yet...]

And even if one map reaches only 30k calls, the engine still crashes after 30k more in the next map? The issue was the engine's runtime, not the map runtime, right?

Hmm... No this is tricky.

If there is no fix, perhaps you would be able to add a "timer" timer to each level? By that I mean a time limit counting down. Not for gameplay reasons, but for engine reasons. Give, say, a 10 minute time limit for each level. Then also, at the end of a level, just give an honest warning that we're unable to avoid a crash unless the player restarts the game. It would be very sad to make it so much more difficult than it potentially could be, but we just gotta work with what we got. It would be better than nothing at all.

You could display a message similar to this:

"Warning: Due to the fact that this game engine isn't optimized for side-scrolling platformers, this mod relies on many loopholes to make it work. Unfortunately, these do not come without restrictions. If you wish to continue playing in this session, we urge you to exit to main menu and restart the mod. If you don't do this, you will likely encounter a crash we are unable to avoid. Really sorry about the inconvenience!"

If you add something like this, perhaps also include the fact that the game is saved, just to comfort the players a bit.
