3 years ago 1 GB memory doesn't seem any useful as 2 GB already seems to be the base level. If at all, then default size. 4 GB should handle at least 1 km quite fine, maybe up to 2. 6 GB should be able to do 2,56, maybe 4 - that is only if it's not a public server though.
Anything above 4 isnt officially supported anyway and should not be offered by us. We also should make sure to give people a warning that bigger world size will make their economical impact as a small group void.
We need to make sure to inform people that the CWs are not intended for hosting public servers. WT with 2.56 km uses about 30 GB of RAM. The mass of activity and laws, that you both dont have on a private server for friends or a school server makes a big difference in memory usage.
WT is idle with 19 GB, the other three are 1km officials idle as well, when used that goes up, I'll try getting another shot on primetime. And, important: Those servers restart once a day to clear memory overallocation, which is required, otherwise those numbers look worse.
Users want bigger maps. And now that we have tiered cw specs, we can give them that. Each cw tier, will have a max map size offered. So lowest tier of 2gb will only allow the current small map.
@D3nnis3n can you give an estimate on max map size for these cw specs? 1gb ram 2gb ram 4gb ram 6gb ram
option to pick map size should be available when purchasing a world (probably a popup option) And in dashboard when reseting a world save
