How To Change Block Limits To Be per Faction or per Player on Your Space Engineers Server

Note:

Setting the block limit to PER_FACTION is highly recommended for team-based PvP or cooperative survival servers. It encourages players to group up, pool their resources, and share a massive combined PCU pool to build dreadnoughts and sprawling orbital stations!

1. Log In to Your Panel

---

2. Select the ‘Files’ Tab

---

3. Select the ‘config’ Folder

---

4. Select the ‘Saves’ Folder

---

5. Select the ‘World’ Folder

---

6. Inside the ‘World’ Folder, Select the ‘Sandbox_config.sbc‘ File

---

7. Configure the Block Limits Setting

Scroll through the file or use Ctrl + F to find the <BlockLimitsEnabled> tag.

You can change the text inside this tag to perfectly match your server’s playstyle. Note that you must use all capital letters for these specific settings:

To Disable Limits: Change the value to read <BlockLimitsEnabled>NONE</BlockLimitsEnabled>. (Warning: This is incredibly risky and can quickly lead to severe server lag).

To Limit By Player: Change the value to read <BlockLimitsEnabled>PER_PLAYER</BlockLimitsEnabled>. Every individual player will have their own strict limit, regardless of who they team up with.

To Limit By Faction: Change the value to read
<BlockLimitsEnabled>PER_FACTION</BlockLimitsEnabled>. Players in the same faction share a combined pool, allowing for much larger collaborative builds.

To Limit Globally: Change the value to read <BlockLimitsEnabled>GLOBALLY</BlockLimitsEnabled>. There is one massive pool for the entire server, and once it runs out, no one can build anymore.

8. Save the Changes

9. Restart Your Server
