Lost half ship blocks, including helm HELP!

[Rebeckah11]

Quite a way through Blightfall. Mod pack up to date, 16GB Ram (so enough), Java etc all up to date. 

Have been clearing taint with a Dawn Machine on the back of the air ship found at the floating city (slightly modified).

Today I was flying over Obelisk Island, actually over the Eldritch Obelisk, and the top half of my air ship disappeared when I stopped and assembled it (pressed '\'). I cannot move it because the ship's helm has also disappeared - in fact my Dawn Machine and chest has also gone. Re-starting the game has not bought blocks back. 

Coincidentally, as I've been flying around large random chunks of land have been disappearing (usually long oblongs about 10 or so block across). If I fly into these the world turns dark and occasionally I get stuck. Save/close game and re-start do make these chunks reappear. Don't know whether connected.

Wondering if removing Eldritch Obelisk will help, but would rather not unless anyone can confirm this will solve the problem.

Please help. Game now unplayable.

How much ram have you allocated in the technic launcher? Use an abolute maximum of 3, unless it is a server designed for more. Relogging also fixes it

More Info: I've just taken the helm off my second ship to see if I can use this to move it. However warning in text appears 'HEIGHT LIMIT FOR BUILDING IS 256 BLOCKS' and that is where I am because that's just above Obelisk Island, and that's why the top of my boat has disappeared.

Is there some way to change the limit?

yes, in the minecraft config if you cannot find it, search on .cfg files, or properties files. It might be in the save or somewhere else. Then change building limit to something higher

Thanks, but can't for life of me find right config file in mod pack to change. Have gone through all in appdata technic blightfall folder, but just not finding the right file. Any help?

I can Google it rn, might be able to find it.

Can't find it

There is no setting to alter the 256 block height limit. It is hard coded into the game.
