This is already logged will be addressed as soon as it can. There is another issue going on also that needs a rework.
No, my tool does not fix it. The problem is in the game, not the file. At least I think so. But I am interested in why it crashes on your epb. I have noticed a problem with creating the 3D view when there are lots of blocks, I am trying to figure that out, but if there is something else causing the crash I would like to know. Would it be possible to send the epb to me? (And maybe we could continue this discussion in the thread for my tool instead)
Please retest a possible fix in this exp build here https://empyriononline.com/threads/alpha-experimental-10-2-0.54188/
I just tested a 254x254x254 box frame blueprint in build 2524 and I see no difference from before - Only the bottom half is loaded and the y values range from 128-254. (The fact that my blueprint is only 255 blocks (0-254) instead of 256 (0-255) in every direction is because of a bug in my tool) I have not yet tested building something large in game and saving it out.
The current limit is 125 blocks out in each direction from the core/center of the structure but this has a issue also in some directions the max amount allowed is less than 125 which is a different issue to the fix which will be addressed in a future release. I would recommend for now to only go 110 in each direction from the core/center of the structure of a structure to avoid the max size issues. The fix is really only for the center of a structure being moved when a blueprint is made & spawned in. For this fix to be active a new copy of the blueprint may need to be saved I only mentioned this here as the blueprint in the OP for me spawned in with no blocks missing.
Ok, I have never had any problems with blueprints smaller than or equal to 256x126x256. However, the centre of the y-axis was always offset differently than the other axis.
I just had it work in a survival test on build 2524! BTW: Reported (via statistics) LOA of this blueprint is 532m or 266 blocks. However, I cannot edit 26 of the blocks. I have yet to count to see what the actual LOA of the ship is though. Either the statistics mechanics is incorrect (very possible) or the roots of the old 'bug' of being able to extend a ship beyond capability are still present and warping the size restrictions of the BP (also very possible).
Not sure if this is related or not: Ships of this size that are spawned in are extremely laggy compared to previous versions. Not sure if it is something to do with using an older blueprint, the size, the sheer number of blocks and devices or what.
@Pantera if i was allowed to use a more colorful language in here i would right now.. It works Sir!!!!! Just a question, when i spawned it in, the spawn-green-thingy-border was a great deal lower on my screen than before... as in it seemed to wanna spawn in below me. So i had to look way upwards for it to spawn in front of me.. Very good work Eleon-peeps... This is making me VERY happy #ELEONDIDFIX
You may need to try making another copy of the blueprint then see if it corrects itself. If not then it may still be affected by the max distance issue.
Please retry in the latest EXP release the fix I previously mentioned & fixes for the regressions that were found caused by the initial fix are also fixed https://empyriononline.com/threads/alpha-experimental-10-3-0.57759/
Just a slight update with new example BPs for anyone to test with. Nothing has really changed. Maximum size for building blocks is 256x127x256 and for devices it is 256x256x256 when spawning in a BP. This means that devices are placed correctly above y=127 but building blocks are truncated. When building in game, the maximum size is still smaller.
