see the big thing in the middle... that is 260,000 metes long and is my new build challange catagory the " I can't belive you want us to build that Monstrosity" Challenge
Elec has used his maze generator to test it out with a huge number of pieces, but it's pretty far beyond practical to use that many.
Once you get over a few thousand pieces onscreen you'll be pretty severely limited by your framerate, so you don't have much chance of building it in full detail all in one piece. Not to mention once you accumulate that many pieces the load time will be monstrous...
No, what you'd need to do to pull it off is to build it in smaller sections, and then once complete compile the saves together or have them load in a batch, and let it work its way through loading. It could take some time.
i'll call it "FREAKIN' UNKNOWN HUGE OBJECT"but i'm not up to it i'd rather build this It's called the Mammoth Mk II ([Link:http://cnc.wikia.com/wiki/Mammoth_Mk._II])Although I'd rather build it Mini
The Imperium(I will call it "The Battering Ram for the Planets!")

The embodiment of Palpatine's plans for extra-galactic conquest, the Imperium would have been as powerful as a Death Star, but much more mobile. Equipped with a small fleet of capital ships, thousands of fighters, and innumerable support craft, the Imperium would have had virtually unlimited range since it would also have carried several World Devastators to produce needed supplies. With this ship, the immortal Palpatine would have spread the Empire across the universe. Rumors suggest that the crew would also have been "immortal" as well, thanks to cloning equipment that would have been onboard. Thankfully, Palpatine was not as immortal as he had hoped, and the ship never progressed beyond initial planning before his final death. While some die-hard Imperials wanted to try and actually build it to use against the New Republic, saner heads prevailed and the Imperium remained only a terrible dream

Hello foo, I thought you were dead. O.o
Remember me? =D
Has anyone actually come close to the new piece limit yet? (Without spamming)

No, what you'd need to do to pull it off is to build it in smaller sections, and then once complete compile the saves together or have them load in a batch, and let it work its way through loading. It could take some time.
Once the 0.2 client is completed, loading times should be reduced by about a factor of 10 or 20 times when on 0.3 or later SI servers.
