Unable to install spacefarer module - Max number of passenger modules installed

Currently a feature, but can be "worked around" using this bug:

No idea what will happen if you build an unreasonable amount of them, though, as they theoretically take space on the overall map.

not a bug, the map space is limited and immutable; each spacefarer module eats 32x32 tiles of the remaining free map space.

that limit of 16 spacefarer modules you're experiencing here is there to prevent the game running out of free map space.

My mod Rocketry Expanded allows to increase that limit to 100 rockets by shrinking the unused space around rocket module interiors by a large amount and adds a bit more free allocatable space to the grid for more rocket interiors and certain future projects. You can get that mod and disable all the new modules and only keep the shrinking + limit removal if you only want that

Yeah I ended up going for the rocketry mod and using it as vanilla as possible. Thanks.

Also, did you say 'your' mod? Its an excellent mod and I really appreciate the work you've put into it. I'm currently using it just to increase the number of rockets, but the other features in the mod look pretty cool too.
