AGI Out of Memory Error
An out of memory error or no memory error occurs when a game tries to load too much information into memory.
No memory. Want x have y
This message means that your game is trying to load something that requires x bytes of memory, but your game only has y bytes of memory available. Since the game cannot grant your request to load the resource, it prints this error message and quits.
The original interpreter was written for computers that did not have very much memory, and – perhaps as a method of making sure games could run on those computers – the interpreter was not written to take advantage of extra memory if the computer had it. The end result is that AGI games have a memory limit of roughly 64 kilobytes for game data.
