Maximum block of specific type
So I can't place any more drills etc and get the message in the title.

Running a dedidctaed MP server, already disabled BlockLimits and set BlockCountThreshold from 20 to 50 to see if it helped (not).

Anyone have an idea what is causing this? I just stated a few days ago and am playing alone right now, testing stuff out. Not much in terms of a base/ships, so I don't get why i am running into this.

Hi, do like I did = "the easy way"

I create the world Local, Experimental mode ON, in Offline mode (the option we see on creating), do the world advanced settings, click OK, load/save/exit

After that I copy/paste this world file to my Dedic Saves folder and load it.

Doing so will withdraw all the aggressive MP settings for item limits and view distance.


But strange thing is you said that you disabled the block limit but added a limit of 50 = why??

Not sure that setting is linked to this. The max player blocks is set to 0 (infinite) and BlockLimits is disabled.

Can't find any definition of BlockCountThreshold so i tried raising that to see if it helped.

Is at home or rented server?

At home it is easy to copy/paste a test local world

But rented server = 3 files must be edited.

rented.

I think those 3 must be edited :

SpaceEngineers-Dedicated.cfg
Sandbox.sbc
sandbox_config.sbc

set this in three files

<BlockLimitsEnabled>NONE</BlockLimitsEnabled>

didn't help



Then set this in the two sandbox files, but it keeps being reset to 30 when I boot.

<item>
<Key>Drill</Key>
<Value>100</Value>
</item>


So it's the drill limit I am reaching, but not sure where to set them as the only two places I find it keep being reset at the reboot.

Is the Experimental mode is enabled?

It is in my server so I can play no limits.

yes

Maybe you should ask the other server admins on Keen Discord, they are helping members in the "Server-admin" channel and some are using rented servers over there and will surely know what to do.

All can join to SE community on Keen Doscord from my post in that pinned :
