I’m BPediting some interstellar colony ships and I need to know how much rocket the game allows me, is it based on rocket size? Part Amount? Part size? If anyone can answer this it’d help out a ton.

Infinite build area is well infinite...
The general rule of thumb is anything less than 3000-3500 parts because that's when my computer starts to lag badly.

I do not know you device's specs so, we will have to see that.

6,000 grid blocks X or Y is the most I've been able to build before it can't render the whole thing. Built a space elevator and that was the max even if I added non connected extensions on top. It just disappears then will reappear causing the extensions to fall. So 6,000 x 6,000.

When your rocket gets to many km in length or size eventually you will be unable to render the whole thing
Number of parts is important too. A good example is the ship you have as a pfp, I remember it was lagging atrociously :)

I concur with what has been said before, 3000-3500 parts is kinda the limit after which you start counting in spf (seconds per frame) rather than in fps.

Yes part limit too! Very annoying to deal with :rolleyes:
It is a beautiful ship :p
