Formula too complex

This indicates that DayZ has rejected the compiled PBO because the string obfuscation has made the code too complex. While the exact limit isn’t documented, this typically happens when too many strings are obfuscated in a single file.

How to Resolve the Error:

Obfuscate Your Mod: Start by running your mod through PBO Tools with string obfuscation enabled.

Re-run Without Obfuscation: Take the output folder from the first step and run it through PBO Tools again—this time with string obfuscation turned off. This will help reveal the correct file paths and error messages during packing.

Identify the Problem Line: Look at the error message to find the specific line number triggering the "Formula Too Complex" error.

Add //dontobf Comment: Once you find the problematic line, add //dontobf to the end of it. This tells PBO Tools to exclude that line from string obfuscation.

Repeat as Needed: Continue the process: re-run the mod, identify new problem lines, and add //dontobf until the error no longer appears.
