what is the maximum recommended size for maps that should be running on the free server?

From experience, 500x500x2 is massive, but it works passably. I wouldn't try 1000x1000 or anything deeper, though.

I try to keep my games reasonably sized at around 200x200x5 or so. The server likes it. The biggest game I have so far uses a 867x435 map, which includes the scale world map, the miniature world map, and 30 or so individual playing areas. Obviously, the game can only support 30 players, but with the current BYOND community and the game's design, I'm sure that's going to be the limit anyway; not everyone likes debugging simulated programs in a game!
