- Number of terrain types - as long as the last terrain in the list is unused, you can delete it
- Number of monster types - as long as the last monster in the list is unused, you can delete it
- Number of item types - as long as the last item in the list is unused, you can delete it
- Number of special items
- Number of strings (scenario, journal, outdoors, town)
- Number of signs (outdoors, town)
- Number of description rectangles (outdoors, town)
