Testing done = MP 4 players Friends mode world created in the Default Safe mode.

Worlds are limited when created in the Default mode with a PCU limit showing in G menu :

Solution :

1 - Go enable "Experimental" from the game options in main menu, it's a box to uncheck to unlock all advanced world settings :

2 - Go to "Load games" menu, that is where your saves are, select your save (highlighted), click the "Edit settings" button on the left, click the "Advanced" button, uncheck "Block limits", click the "OK" button to apply the change :

Keep in mind that we have 2 games :

1 - Default Safe mode = Better MP Perfo where server admins can change the PCU limit to be fair in PVP.

2 - Experimental mode = All in + Unlocks all settings + Mods + Scripts + No limits.

Yes, and even above 100,000 (which is the default setting). After you load SE, go to Load Game, then go to the game you want to change and select it, then hit Advanced; scroll down a short distance and uncheck the box for "Block limits." Now you're good to go.

Hi, that is more used in MP where server admins can change the limit to be fair in PVP.

I just enable "Experimental" in game options to unlock all advanced world settings and go disable the block limit if I play Offline Solo.

I will add :

100 000 PCU is the maximum for a Huge Mothership to have a not bad in-game Perfo, but we can go above.

Do you play on Dedicated server?

Asking because :

Settings for servers need to be identical for the main spaceengineers-dedicated.cfg and sandbox_config.sbc in the save folder.

I play on a solo testing world when it comes to building ships or getting screenshots

Local is very good, just share your save then, so I can go in the find the problem.

> How to publish a world save :

1 - Select your save.

2 - Click the "Publish" button on the left.

3 - Choose a proper Tag or skip all and click the OK button.

4 - Your world will be uploaded to Steam Workshop.

5 - Share the Workshop item link.

So got around the PCU limit via ALT+F10 and selected the option to disable PCU limit allowing me to copy paste your ship a second time.

You seem to be in normal game mode not experimental so open options on the main screen and then select game and tick experimental mode agree with the pop up.

Back to menu and select load game, click once on your save and into edit settings and then advanced, find the PCU limit slider which should now be near the left not on the right and drag left until it disabled and select OK this should solve the problem.


Also

Not about the capital ship but those Arc fighters, the reloadable rocket launchers ain't piped up to anything, might be better to swap them out with more of the manual ones, you could get more missiles per wing that way in their current config.
