is their anyway to get a project with a id lower than 960 million if u dont have any?

No, that isn't possible. Newer projects have higher IDs, and it there's no way to become the owner of an older project unless you made it.

is the id requirement 960 million or 1billion cuz i see a game on trending with 963 million

I believe that you can't have a project on trending that's ID code is higher than 970,000,000- 1 billion.

Projects with an id above 970 000 000 will never get indexed until:

1. Something is done by the ST to make the indexer be able to keep up with the rate of new projects being shared.

2. There is a massive decrease in new projects causes, for example, by holidays.

3. Enough time has passed. (Probably months)

Because the backlog of unindexed projects in increasing every day, if nothing is done, the problem will only get worse and it might reach a point where high id projects are simply never indexed.


By the way the 970 000 000 limit changes every day. Some day the indexer might be able to reach 965 000 000, but the next day, due to more new projects, it might only be able to reach id 920 000 000, thus every project with an id above this number not getting indexed this day. In the future some projects with an ID above 970 000 000 will be indexed, but, by the time this is the case, new projects will have an id of like 1 100 000 000 for example. This is all because the indexer can’t keep up.

I could be wrong though.

I can try to suggest a feature where you can transfer ownership of a project to another user

Project IDs have no significance other than telling projects apart. If you create a project, it will have the most recent ID. No, there is (likely) no way to change the Project ID, and no there is no further significance to it.

Unfortunately, you can't get a lower ID. Aside from a few that were added at the release of 2.0 to ensure that the website didn't break, all IDs are taken (which also makes it a good way to count the total number of projects). Project ID is not changeable, and the only way to get a lower ID is to have an earlier project.

Look what I just found. A trending project with an ID of… 997 million?

The indexer did reach high ID so a lot of projects near 1B were indexed (can show up on search and explore), but it's because it's Christmas, so the activity is low on the website. So, the indexer now has time to reach high id projects that were shared a few months ago. It is most likely that, as soon as chrismas is over, high Id projects won't get indexed anymore again.

Chat i think trending is fixed… for now :cri:
