just playing around i rezzed 7644 prims on a piece of land in Oak Grove that supported 1095. i didn't own the land. basically i kept rezzing until it said the sim was full. thing is i passed the point where the plot should have been full by like 7 times. a couple Lindens checked it out and said every thing was normal and fine.
uh.....am i crazy or do i remember getting "the parcel is full" messages before? is that only on land you own and you can rez like crazy on anybody else's land? did that change at some point and i didn't notice? doesn't that mean no matter how much land i have i can keep rezzing prims until the sim is full? i'm extra confused today.

Zuzi, Was the land owned by a group or person that also had other land in the same sim? While a parcel may have a limit, if the land owner (individual/group) has more land in the same sim, they effectively combine prim allocation. So let's say I have parcel A which will support 1000 prims, and parcel B in the same sim, that will support 5000 prims. I have put all 6000 prims on parcel A, or parcel B, or split them up in whatever way I want. Perhaps what you experienced was the sim filling up due to the way the land is divided up in that sim. if other land owners were at their limits already, and you were on a parcel that was owned by someone that has more land in the sim, perhaps you got the sim full notice instead of the parcel full notice because the sim was in fact full. It's important to note that you won't get the parcel full notice until the combined prim allocation for that given land owner in the sim is reached. I don't know if I explained that clearly, or if I just confused things even more.

nah that was very clear thanks. well....it was Linden land so that's a possibility. seems like a stretch to say that every other plot in the sim was full tho because Oak Grove was basically open for people to buy instead of being mostly Linden land like usual. so i guess your explanation's possible. what threw me is the Lindens heard "this parcel supports 1095 prims and i have 7644 on it and the land window isn't showing any of them and neither is the sim total even tho i get the message the sim is full" and said "don't worry that's how it's supposed to work". maybe there's some behind the scenes stuff but the explanation sounded like "oh it's screwed up? good!"

After reading your response, it sounds like it is in fact screwed up in preview. I wonder if they lifted the limits in certain sims to allow for more elaborate testing cases. At any rate, I doubt similar situations will take place on the main grid once 1.6 goes live. Everyone would move back to a 512 or 1024 sqm parcel then.  McW

on the plus side deleting all 7644 prims at once didn't cause any ghosting. did cause a hell of a particle hurricane as each of them spun the usual cloud of sparklies tho.
