# Ran Out of Space
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The application ran your source text through the Inform 7 compiler, as usual,
|
||
|
|
and it found no problems translating the source. This process results in what's
|
||
|
|
called a "story file", which is a program for a small virtual computer.
|
||
|
|
Unfortunately, the story file for this source text was too big for that virtual
|
||
|
|
machine: there's just too much of it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Inform can produce story files for several different virtual computers, and the
|
||
|
|
one used by the current project can be selected using the Settings panel. If you
|
||
|
|
are currently using the "Z-machine" format, try switching the project to "Glulx"
|
||
|
|
format (you can make this change at the Settings panel), and limits like this
|
||
|
|
will probably not bother you again. Although Z-machine story files used to be
|
||
|
|
much more widely playable than Glulx ones, these days Glulx interpreters are
|
||
|
|
widely available, so it's probably not worth making big sacrifices to stay
|
||
|
|
within the Z-machine memory size.
