Thus, it is possible to configure a game with 999 ships and 10000 minefields. PlanetsCentral currently has options for 700 and 999 ships, respectively. More than 500 minefields is not that popular because VPA and Winplan do not support it (PCC and EchoView do.).
The issue you are talking about with more than 500 minefields is being able to view the 501+ minefields, not lay them, right? I use Echoview for things like minefield plotting, so it was not an issue in the 2 games that I remember playing where the minefield limit was over 500.
Yes, that's a problem of being able to see the minefields. Only the first 500 are displayed.
Laying always works. Older versions of VPA wouldn't allow you to give a mission like "Add 15 mines to field 2351", but at least that's fixed in the newer versions.
To see more than 500 minefields in VPA, there's VPA10k, but that's just an evil hack.
