it says on the bottom that i haven't reached either of the limits yet, but i can't build anywhere. i've tried multiple items and multiple locations within the structure but nothing works. anyone know what the obvious thing i'm missing is? 😅

Looking at the image could test removing the stairs or putting up support pillar on the nearest corner to see if you can place it then

Ahh, well sounds like a item limit thing then

i've tried removing some structures(? walls/ceiling) from my old house but that hasn't solved it, i'm not sure what limit i've hit :(

Look the floor and type x you will see you actual build limit /300

i'm still confused.. neither of these numbers are at 300??

#

you should have a red bar in the middle of your screen with the type of construction you are looking at

past karma
#

red bar as in part of the ui, or an object?

I am running into the exact same issue. I am well under build limits but suddenly I can not build anything. I went to another build and removed a entire upper floor and then tried to place the same floor back and the game will not let me.

#

All pieces are now red.

when you press x and look at any of your pieces this is what you're looking for, the 1/300 in this picture
if you're at 300 you can't add anymore

Do some sets like tudor cost more to use then other sets like crude stone? Because i have a massive crude stone base but am running into that limit really fast trying to build a small tudor base.

# frail pike no they all cost the same, each building has a max of 300 if you using the bridg...

I read the link you posted. I was wondering something though. If you place pre-foundation (ghost foundation) say 3 in a row. then remove the middle one all before they are built. Will they all still count together. In the link it kinda went over this a little but to me it was saying that if you build the foundations (not the pre-ghost ones) 3 in a row and then remove the middle then it will still count together.

nevermind i just tested it. I really do not like this at all. I do not like not being able to build the way I want to build and having to use jenky ways around the build limits because then nothing lines up.

I really just hope that offline more removes the build restriction. IU can see having build restriction because the game is always online and everytime soemthing is altered the game has to communicate that with the servers. They are trying to avoid what happens in Ark with massive builds. In ark someone will make a massive build and the second someone comes into range of that build on a server it will sometimes crash the entire server. However also in ark if you play off line you can bulld however big you want to build and if you are on a potato PC it may or maynot crash your game locally and not take the server out with it.

#

Also I really really hope offline mode comes with mod support. IMO modding is a driving force for games to have longevity and buzz generation. Look at Skyrim for example and even Fallout 4 with fallout London on the horizon.
