Hello,

We are trying to build an office. We bought 2048 m2 land on coordinate 152 - 211- 57
And we bought this building: SI-30 HORIZON TOWER/CONDOMINIUM by Seigmancer Nino from SLBoutique.

We get the error "The parcel is full'

We are quit new in the game and are not completely familliar with 'Prims'. Maybe there is a problem.

If anybody could come and assist we are willing to pay good L$ for help!

The short answer is that the building you purchased requires 996 prims, and the land that you are putting it on only supports 468 total.

I am sure that someone else will pipe in with a better answer than that, and perhaps explain about prim budgets and the like. I just woke up and my brain is really not working yet, sorry :)

If the additional land is in the same sim, the answer is yes, you can combine the prim allotment. If the two parcels are in different sims, then no.

Look at the About Land window. It will tell you how many prims you're using, and how many are available.

You can also figure it out yourself pretty easily. 15,000 is the total allotment for a sim, and a sim equals 65,536 square meters (256M per side). Whatever percentage of a sim you own, you get that same percentage of its prim count. If you've got 512 square meters, for example, then you have 1/128 of the sim. 15,000 / 128 = 117.

...dont' forget that furniture counts against the prim budget, too.
If you add vending machines, or other 'physical' stuff, you're going to need some more prim budget.

People and their attachments don't count against the prim budget. Textures applied to objects dont' count and 'particles' don't count. Scripts (which are always INSIDE an object) don't count.
