In Once Human, every player has seen the message 'Space full, Unable to Place More' pop up on their screen at some point. This happens when you are in your territory and trying to construct equipment and place it in your house. It also pops up when you are setting up a new Isolated Securement Unit to store more Deviant companions that you have collected.

In this article, we will look into the problem and its possible solution.

The message 'Space full, Unable to Place More' popping up indicates that placing the item or furniture will exceed the capacity of your current territory. For technical as well as balance reasons, Once Human does not allow you to pack your territory with too many objects. Fortunately, upgrading your territory may allow you to place more items.


How to place additional Securement Units

You might have also reached the default Securement Units cap. The default limit for the Securement Units is five, and you cannot construct any more of the Securement Units after that.

But thankfully, Once Human offers unlocking capabilities through which you can bypass this problem and get more Securement Units. Like most unlocks, you can find it in the Memetics tree.

So, to unlock more Isolated Securement Units for your Deviant companions, go to the Memetics tree and select the 'Logistics' category. Under the 'Logistics' category, you will come across an unlock called 'Securement Unit Expansion I', a tier three unlock.

The first expansion does not need any pre-requisite unlocks before it, so, you can unlock it whenever you want. 'Expansion I' for the Isolated Securement units requires three Ciphers and 200 Energy Links to unlock. It will increase the maximum limit for the number of Securement units you can have to 10.

If you scroll down further, you will see that there is an unlock called 'Securement Unit Expansion II'. The second expansion unlock sits at tier five and requires 'Securement Unit Expansion I' as a pre-requisite unlock; that is, you cannot get Expansion II if you do not have Expansion I unlocked.

In order to unlock 'Secure Unit Expansion II', you need seven Ciphers and 2000 Energy Links. This unlock will give you access to 20 Isolated Containment Units for your Deviant Companions.


Note that Once Human still needs a few hotfixes to iron out all of its bugs. If you are facing the 'Space full, Unable to Place More' message even though you have territory space or haven't exceeded the limit, it may be due to a bug. In this case, logging out and back into the server may help - but there is no surefire way that we know so far.
