Theoretically you can specify up to 32 PATH names, but it's better to stay well below that limit. Each folder is searched in sequence until a given file is found, so having lots of paths can increase the project startup time.
But I need since I have to categorize all my bitmaps like the menu screens.. What other best options can we make instead of pragma_path??? Is add_folder a solution if I really want to define many path names?
Yeah, you should't ever need more that 32 folders. The project I am working is like 10GB and has thousands or resources and don't need that many folders, just create folders for each type of resource... Images, Audio, Models, etc.
You should have no problem keeping within the 32 folder limit.
