I have noticed when i run my game in the little window that appears that i have 500 objects, it does not go over 500 so when for example my caracter shoots his rifle no bullet comes because there can be no more objects, How can i raise this limit?

To change the maximum object count for a particular frame, simply go to the Frame Properties and change the object limit. Each frame has its own limit, so you'll have to change it in every frame in which it needs changing. I remember hearing somewhere that going past 10,000 in non-HWA MMF2 would cause extreme lag, but I could be wrong.

Going past 10,000 or even a few hundred in non-HWA MMF2 will definitely cause lag, but I still like to set the limit to 10,000 because the effects of reaching the object limit are worse than lag.

If you reach the object limit then MMF will start randomly deleting objects and that causes way more problems!

The limit is, for me, 20,000 objects for each frame.

You could destroy the objects (bullets) once they have gone a certain distance off frame.
