DAD'S PREFAB LIMITER
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

A lightweight server-side component that lets you set a maximum instance count on any buildable prefab. When a player attempts to place an object that has already hit its limit, the placement is cancelled immediately with no refund and a hint message is shown explaining why. Works on both factions with no additional setup.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
FEATURES
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

- Set a per-prefab instance limit directly in the Workbench editor
- Placement is blocked the moment the limit is reached — no refund given
- Closest player receives a customisable hint message explaining the block
- Runs entirely server-side — no client mod required
- Works for both factions equally
- No mission scripting required — attach and go

SETUP INSTRUCTIONS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━



1. Open the prefab you want to limit in Workbench.

2. Add the "dads_prefablimiter" component to that prefab.

3. In the component settings, set the following:

   - Max Instances
     The maximum number of this prefab allowed in the world at once.
     Example: set to 2 to allow no more than 2 of this object on the map.

   - Limit Message
     The hint text shown to the player when their placement is blocked.
     Example: "This object has reached its placement limit."
     You can customise this per prefab.

4. Save the prefab and load your mission. The limiter is active immediately.

NOTES
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

- The limit check runs at the moment of placement. If the limit is already
  met when a player places the object, it is deleted instantly and no
  supplies are returned.

- The hint message is sent to the player nearest to the placement location,
  which in almost all cases will be the player who attempted the placement.

- Setting Max Instances to 0 will disable the limit check entirely for
  that prefab.
