Only 50 workshop calls??
I've been downloading workshop calls and upon opening the game editor I get a pop up saying there are more than 50 downloads and not all will work?

Is this limit going to change?

There is literally no limit to the types of calls that can be made. Even when a bunch of calls are turned into a mod pack, they still show up individually under workshop calls (i.e. On The Line). It wouldn't take long to make more than 50+ basic calls for the sake of variety. But there's not much point if there's a limit on the number of calls actually working in game.

I understand you won't get 50 calls in one shift in Career Mode, but to hear the same calls after say ten shifts will start to get boring. It would be great to have no limit and all calls randomized.

EDIT: I've posted this in workshop discussions because I'm wanting to start creating new calls.

Re: OtL, I know for sure that the mod system wasn't designed for packs of calls. The devs even advised that I just made a collection, but I'm a rebel and made them a pack anyway :p

You say the message appears in the call editor, does it also appear in game? I'm just wondering if it is a limitation of the editor rather than what will load in the game here.

A further thought is that you may have two calls installed with the same id and that makes it freak out?

The message appears only when I open the editor, I've deleted a lot of downloads now so I don't get the message and can't remember exact words but basically it said I had more than 50 workshop calls and some wouldn't appear in the game. I did count 52 before I started testing them. I didn't have any duplicate IDs, I checked that. I'm using the contributor beta mode too.

I think I've got the hang of the editor but I don't think I want to delve too much into translations, artwork and I don't have the voice for acting out voiceovers.

I've been playing around with making new calls and I guess I've figured out the answer for myself. Create calls with tons of different scenarios. Time consuming yes but well worth it. I've spent hours today creating a house fire call with five different sets of four possible answers from the caller with several endings and possibility of death if you don't handle the call properly or send services quick enough. This alone should give me (and other players) a large number of different house fire scenarios for one created call. I could make it easier for myself and create standard what, where, when, how etc. But I like the idea of adding twists.
