summlimt.2da

This file externalizes the summoning caps.

In BG2EE we have:

2DA V1.0
0
          LIMIT
NORMAL    5
CELESTIAL 1

Info:

When the engine is summoning any creature, it checks for existing creatures that match:
```
(EA <= 15 and EA != FAMILIAR) and (GENDER == SUMMONED or GENDER == SUMMONED_DEMON)
```
and holds them to the NORMAL limit.
When engine is summoning a creature with one of the following hardcoded resrefs, ["DEVAGOOD", "DEVAEVIL", "PLANGOOD", "PLANEVIL"], additionally checks for existing creatures that match:
```
(EA <= 15 and EA != FAMILIAR) and (GENDER == BOTH) and (animationID == 0x7F3B or animationID == 0x7F3C)
```
and holds them to the CELESTIAL limit.
In both cases, these limits hold only for the Party.

Note: A CELESTIAL will be blocked if the NORMAL limit has already been reached, but the NORMAL limit won’t be blocked if the CELESTIAL limit has already been reached.
A.k.a. if you summon your planetar first, you can have 5 NORMAL + 1 CELESTIAL. If you summon your planetar last, you can only have 4 NORMAL + 1 CELESTIAL.
