Eh, that's a lot of my space, too.

23.2 MB

New computer, even on my old one I didnt have alot of saves.


Size: 42,1 MB (44.216.807 bytes)

213 files, 10 folders.

I have tons of copies of BL, one for each server I've ever hosted or add-on I've ever created.

My largest save folder is 5.5 gigs, that's due to autosaving my freebuild every hour, I really need to make it more efficient.

I think the per-user data cap for save files would be 1GB (although I could include an option to not upload screenshots which would give you guys a whole load more space).
Didn't you just said that there is currently 4500 users using RTB? Wouldn't that go up to 4.5 TB?! How much space does you even have?!
I suggest a quota on 100MB (or lower), where users have to choose by themselves what to upload. Like an extra option when saving, like "Save ownership" and "Save events" have.

You do seem to like suggesting how I should be doing things. I have plenty of space to accommodate 4.5TB of data - I doubt people will be using their 1GB quota any time soon though. Saves would only be archived to RTB as you save them - it won't immediately upload your entire saves folder. Given that a bunch of the people who have large save folder sizes have been playing for atleast a couple of years now I think I won't even hit the 1TB mark for quite a while.

I have no information about who is hosting you and how much space you have. Therefor I assumed that it was a host with limited space, no offense.

Size: 74.5 MB
