Yeah, so I never intended this to be played beyond 4 people, I was only thinking of it in terms of like a typical co-op game. After seeing how Sandcastle plays with large numbers though I totally see the appeal, it's pretty awesome. I doubt this could hold 40+ players, but even 12 with good scaling would be a whole different experience.

As is the scaling is hard capped at 4 players, it doesn't scale any more no matter how many you add. I'll just put that on my list of things to work on. Actually part of why it is the way it is now is because I messed up the math early on and made it impossibly difficult at 8 players, haha.

I'm glad you see how having a higher amount of players can definitely add to the experience! I think people are really digging the feel of there being a group of them against huge hordes of enemies :D

Right now I made the Sandcastle servers only 20 slots in order to improve stability and they probably will stay that way or will even be lowered to 16-18 depending. So don't worry about the +40, that was just me testing out some settings, hehe!

Glad to see your back in the game and updating the map! Will be happy to put this map in my TLC rotation!
