Quick answer: No. You shouldn't need that many locations anyway, be efficent.

Use hidden units that are neutral, invincy, and burrowed/cloaked. Just center a master location on them to substitute for other locations. Cuts down on usage, a lot, assuming you have lots of locations of the same size.

Actually you can't even get 255 lol.
The last numbered location you create is 254. Since it starts at 0 you can add one. But then again since there is no location 63 you subtract one. So you have a total of 254 locations plus "anywhere" that you can use.

you could use a gridsystem for get infinite locs, but that mean remake triggers, hard as hell triggs, etc.

If you are not an expert like bolt or tux, use minimooses' method.

What makes Bolt's Method super hard? Anyhow for the other method, place units in burrowed format for an unused player, and when you no longer need another location have it move location to hover over that unit at "anywhere" or else in the location, if its the only one.

He's making an RPG, guys. What's this crap about grid systems? You don't need a grid system for an RPG (unless you have some kind of grid-based RPG 
). And Coko, I suggested that before Bolt. -_-
