Hi, just wondering is it possible to change the number of players allowed on a map to greater than 4? Thanks

No, you can't change it unless you want to make great changes to the game and your a coder. It is coded in to the game.

Yes, ElimNator is correct

I believe there is already a topic on this in the GAE board.

If you are really keen these are the steps I would take (may require a bit of work though):
1. change static const int maxPlayers= 4; in game_constants.h to the number you want.
2. change the map editor to allow more player starting positions and create a new map or change an existing one
3. Fix any bugs that are caused by this, including GUI problems
