I don’t know the internal workings of IA and the bittorent architecture but if an archive has too many items the torrent file won’t have them all. I see this all the time with ROM packs and magazine archives for example. +1000 items, the torrent will only have the first ~200 or so available

  I think for some reason IA limits the torrent size. I have seen as low as 50 with a 1000+ item archive.
