Popular places used to range from 40k - 20k now we have 98k which equates to 68 peoples being on the sim 24hours which the 4 or so times I checked there are never even half that which must mean there are huge crowds when I am not about (I do shower, really). So I was wondering:

Is dwell now working for estate with many sims and all counting as one?

What is the current max of user a sim can support?

Thank you

Hello Jamie! It is possible depending what else is happening that day -- traffic counts are relative to other ongoing activity, so if one particular hotspot had a lot of activity and others have less than they usually do, it could result in the numbers you're describing.

Think of traffic as a pie divided daily. So:

No, it's still on a per-parcel basis.

100 avatars in a region, World menu > Region/Estate > General tab > Agent Limit.
