Is there a limit on blocks?

[Björnis]

Hello i wonder if there is any limit how many blocks it can be placed on a Dedicated server, is there any limit of can we place unlimit amount of them?

Doubtful. Everything around you is already blocks.
The ground beneath you, the POIs, even the air is considered blocks.

When you place one, all you're doing is exchanging one type for another.

There is technically a limit. Much like minecraft, the game is made up of 16x16 chunks that extend from bedrock to a certain point in the sky. In 7dtd's case it's bedrock, then 252 height of buildable space- Of which roughly 194 of that exists above ground level. So in total, there's 64,512~ blocks per chunk times the number of chunks.

Thing is, Every space, even the 'empty' ones are technically filled. Just the empty ones are filled with 'air' blocks.

But, the actual answer to what you're trying to discern is that no, there is no maximum limit tot he number of blocks any given user can place or remove from the game world. You wanna build a 5,000,000 block castle, by all means.

thanks for answer, thing is that we playing on a server and we are 4 players playing it and we love the game, but after this last update that come out a few days ago error starting to come, something with this:
EXE Memory stream is not expandable
ERR NCSIMPLE_Serializer (ch=0);

and we were wondering what it can be as he get error all the time after 5-10 sec and falling in to the ground and falling down underground,
he has reinstalled the game, making new character on the server, and still the same after a few hr played on new one, we have some mods but we are 3 that dont get any error about same issue,
i am getting some missing sound error and its yellow line
any idea what it can be, all this started after the update :(

we talking 140 hr game play on server and no error for him before the update, and it makes so we cant play before this is fixed as we want to play this great game together

This last update messed up things for many people... one trick I found works is to run 7D2D exe (and Launcher) as Administrator. Everyone of your friends should try this and maybe they can play without errors after that... worth the try IMO.

Size of the world itself I guess. It is hard-limited by all 3 coordinates.

also a error for me is that i cant start the game on steam, i need to get in to the folder of the game and start it from there, its realy sad that it made that a problem, as its good the game going forward and keeps it alive and its a great game for sure

I think there is somekind of compression in the game. So everything aside from the generated map is more difficult to load in.

we playing on a big map 10,200*10,200 i think it is, but thing is that we getting diffrent error between us and not the same kind
