Default weird Upgrade.ini error?

I'll be so much thankful if anyone can help me on this one.

Does upgrade.ini has some sort of weird limitation on the number of upgrade objects you can add?

I believe upgrade.ini should allow unlimited upgrades as long as one is willing to code but in my case it doesn't seem so.

I'll give you out my exact situation:

1. I downloaded Deezire's Progen2
2. I'm merging it with another mod
3. So far I've succeded in tinkering with Toxin General
4. Exactly today (as I'm making this post) I'm encountering a weird error
5. The crashinfo says it's an error parsing upgrade.ini file, the last line to be exact, which is upgrade hellfiredrone something...
6. I inspected it and found nothing wrong in code

Okay here's the weird part:

1. When I swap the line positions of upradehellfredrone to the one before it, which is upgradebattledrone, I still get an error but this time the crashinfo says error in parsing at line upradebattledrone... (this means there was nothin wrong at upgradehellfiredrone in the first place)

2. the upgrades Im using in my mod are written and grouped above and before the original upgrades in upgrade.ini, if I place them below the crashinfo reports that an error occured when parsing line anthraxsigma (my upgrade, which happened to be placed now at the last line in place of upgradehellfiredrone)

3. When I remove some code above, let's say the first upgrade in progen's upgrade.ini which is nationalism, the weird error suddenly dissappears...


So far, I can only think of one conclusion... as silly as it may seems there's a limit on the upgrades you can put in upgrade.ini! At least, in progen that is (the one I'm re-modding). I never encountered this when I'm re-modding other mods, for instance I could add more upgrade objects in the upgrade.ini of nuker's rise of the ruthless mod.

Or maybe, I'm at fault here in a part I may have overlooked. So I appreciate your help here guys! Deezire! Anyone!

what the! a limit of 128 upgrades! so modding isn't just a problem of design but a problem of logistics as well... hmmm. No one told me that until now.

So I've no choice but to remove some huh. That's quite... unsatisfying.

Thanks anyway.
