Castle height limit

[Wolffritz]

Hello, is here any way to change the castle height limit?
Currently we seem to only be able to build 2 levels above ground.
I fancy the idea of more.

Let me know if you know what server config parameter to change to increase Height limit, if we have one.
Cheers!

Don't see a setting in the server settings for it. It could be tied to the Heart level. Not sure I have not got that far yet.

Wait only 2 stories? that's anti climatic... this big hoopla about levels and we only get 2 levels? Do better.

It's part of the castle heart modifiers:

"CastleStatModifiers_Global": {
"TickPeriod": 5.0,
"DamageResistance": 0.0,
"SafetyBoxLimit": 1,
"TombLimit": 12,
"VerminNestLimit": 4,
"PrisonCellLimit": 16,
"HeartLimits": {
"Level1": {
"Level": 1,
"FloorLimit": 40,
"ServantLimit": 4,
"BuildLimits": 2,
"HeightLimit": 3 <------------

You can raise it up to 6.

Are we still limited to 250 tiles though?

Wait is that ingame options? or do you have to mod a file?

The height limit is currently not exposed in the UI but can be edited in the server settings file.

Max in settings is 600, recommended max is 500, default is 420.

Why is recommended max is 500 ?

Why is recommended max is 500 ?

probably for stability issues

Can someone tell me where the file is and its name? I'm trying to do this as well. I found one file, but it doesn't look like the above example and changing it does nothing.

I tried ading HeightLimit to the levels and didn't change anything. Floor limit was updated but not HeightLimit :(

Did you change settings in server save folder or under serverdata/assetstreaming/settings
When I changed it under my save only some settings would change. I hade to change settings under the assetstreaming folder one for all of them to work

I don't have a height setting anywhere in my servergamesettings file. Is it possible I missed an update? My heart limits section stops at "ServantLimit":

[Battlespark]

the latest update/hotfix when you host your new game it shows a height map slider.

Just FYI, the default is max 4 stories. It becomes 3 stories if you are already built one level up on an elevated plateau. I see a lot of people confused about that.

@Wolf
if it is still a problem.
To change the height or prison cell number for a private server/dedicated server add these two lines to the ServerGameSettings.json:

"PrisonCellLimit": xx,
"HeightLimit": x,

That's what parent child bowl did.
