Over Lot Limit : SWG Premium Discussions

Weird thing happened to me as I was placing down some small generic houses today. I had a generic small house in my datapad (placed it wrong), and placed a new generic small house down from my inventory. It put me over my lot limit, AND allowed me to place my datapad house. It displayed it very obviously so that I had to know I was over my limit- the system mail saying a house had been put up contained it, it was in spatial chat, and it was in big red letters on the 'main screen."

Any idea if this is a known exploit, a new one, or if logging out/in will 'correct' this?

Working as intended since the new house styles were introduced, you are allowed to go one house over your cap, iirc.

There are several restrictions combined with it, I dont remember exact.

Main reason was to allow people with full lots to move stuff from decorated houses to new house with the /savedeco commands.

So - no sploit, bug or something.

Good to know.

Any idea then, as to how often GMs check for people over their limit?

To help with moving in to a new structure, if you are currently at or below the lot limit, you will be allowed to place a new player house even if doing so would exceed the lot limit. To be precise, this exceeding the lot limit is only allowed when placing a new player house (factory, harvester, generator, guild hall, merchant tent, cantina, medical center, theater, diner, barn, etc. are not included). To coerce you back to lot limit compliance, the following will occur when you place a new player house that causes you to exceed the lot limit. A message (in large red text) will be permanently displayed on your client warning you that you are in violation of the lot limit. You will be spammed (every 5 minutes during the first 24 hours, and every minute thereafter) with a warning message that you are in violation of the lot limit. It may take up to 1 minute after the violation for the large red text and the spamming to begin. You will not be able to drop any item into (or move around items within) any other factory or structure (even those owned by someone else that you are admin of) except for the structure that caused you to exceed the lot limit. You will still be able to drop items into other containers (inventory, equipped backpack, bank, trade with another character, storage droid, vendor, bazaar, POB ships, etc). You will not be able to edit the admin list of the structure that caused you to exceed the lot limit.
