Limits
Players can only hold 1,000 at any time, and can only earn 800 each day. Both of these are soft limits.
- For example, if a player has earned 780 in a single day and walks 2 km to earn another 300, they will have 1,080. At that point, they cannot earn any more Max Particles since they are over the carry limit. Even if they spend them to go under the carry limit, they will still have to wait until the next day to earn more since they are also over the daily earn limit.
- This means the maximum Max Particles one can carry is 1,290 by starting a day with 990 and walking 2 km.
