    So, ZE seems to be full most of the time and that is pretty good. So maybe it's the time we bump it to max 64 slots. Anyone agree?

    No, it was raised from 52 > 56 by Ray a few days ago. ZE uses a lot of resources.

    We can't just change slots because we want to, there's many restrictions in doing so. ZE at 56 is probably its max capacity right now resource wise, there's no other room for it unless we kill off ZM, which won't happen obviously.

    Leave it as it is. ZE, like tony said, takes more resources than other mods like zm. More players=more lagg. Most ze servers out there have less than 52 anyways.

    They did in the past and it was empty all the time.

    Even though it's locked:

    Because ZE at 56 slots uses upwards of 180 to 190% CPU at times depending on the circumstances. Raising the slot count will increase CPU further, decrease resources available to the other servers, and raise the likelihood that it will crash. 56 is the maximum safest slot count I can put on there at the moment, resource wise and stability wise.
