limits [UpsideDown Universe]

The block limits are an essential part of keeping the server performance at a good level. Thank you for understanding this!

Blocks
Buildable items in the Space Engineers are called blocks. Every item built is equal to 1 block no matter if it is a door, a thruster, or a reactor. Different blocks affect server performance differently. The performance impact of these blocks is measured in PCU (Performance Cost Unit).

PCU
Blocks affects server performance differently and so they have different PCU values where higher values equals higher performance impact.UD applies limitations to players and grids.

Exceeding the limits will result in a warnings and/or the blocks being disabled. We will not destroy, damage, or remove blocks except in extreme cases.

PrimeCore
PrimeCore is the system we use to track grids across all servers. This allow or deny you access to building blocks depending on the listed criteria. Commands are also available to see your limits.

What is a universe limit

This is an absolute hard limit. Regardless of other limits, you can not go above this.
This is the total count of block type across all servers.
This is a limit on the player account.

This is the hard limit on a single server. You cannot go above this limit for a single server.
This is the total count of block type only on a single server.
This is a limit on the player account.

Grids may have multiple owners, so a grid limit is required.
This limit applies to the grid AND subgrids.
Connected grids by connectors, magnets, etc are counted as seperate grids.

Docking multiple grids for the purpose of going above grid limits is NOT allowed.
Your grids may be sent to your Dockyard or deleted, depending on the situation, the player, and the staff member involved.

A blank space means there is no established limit for that listing in that category.
