At the moment all pages using GregTech-Nav are listed under that not so good sounding category: "Pages where template include size is exceeded" and are not showing the nav. Dunno, if thats a common problem though.

That is because the nav is so LARGE. Although if this now always happens when the nav is transculded, that wouldn't be a good thing... it might be possible to bump up that limit manually in the MW configuration, it would be up to RZR0 to decide and do that though.

This again? Well, this time I won't be able to fix that. We'll need to split it up or at least do something to make it smaller.

As far as I'm aware it's not possible.

For now I've quickly split up the nav into regular and resources nav. I haven't made any changes to the pages, but I think we need a better solution for this (and urgent).

So it's the sum of all templates which is counted against the template include size?

I'm not sure, either that or the side of the output of the template.

What I THINK is that it checks the final size of all templates that will be transcluded, as this problem also appears on pages with many navboxes. In that case regular NavItems are much worse than Lua code, as the entire template content will be counted per NavItem, including all possible #if states. Oh, and the main Navbox template is gigantic and appears to have a lot of functionality that we'll never use, it might be a good idea to clean that up a little. (and I hate having default Wikia content on our site.)

GT/Nav is Lua based...

GT/Nav is Lua based...

But Template:Navbox isn't, and it's exactly 17650 bytes in size. 99 % of which get transcluded along with every single navbox. Template:Navbox_subgroup also transcluded Template:Navbox, meaning that in a navbox with 11 subgroups you'd almost have 200000 bytes of bare navbox. Not sure what the limit is, probably 250000 bytes or so, which wouldn't be that hard to attain if my math is correct.

PS:
Nope, my math was wrong. Actually the entire GT/Nav is over 1 million bytes in size. http://ftbwiki.org/U...sus/Navbox_size
