Colorset color limits
Dr.Tyler O.:
One of my friends brought this up today and I thought it was interesting. Why did Badspot make the limit of colors on a colorset 64?

So clients didn't have to deal with a 1000 color colorset.
Zacks:
Because each color is an single datablock I believe. So if there wasn't an limit somebody could make a set with like 256 colors or more. and or fill the data block limit up I think.

Networking issues. I can't expand on this, someone feel free to.
Plexious:
So the client doesn't have to download too many datablocks when joining.
1 color = 4 datablocks
64 colors = 256 datablocks
