What the maximum dimensions a floorplan can be? or is there a maximum?
Thanks

I don't see why there ought to be a theoretical maximum.. I suppose you could in theory make a whole city build a single floorplan

At the moment the plan i have is about 50x50 and about 12 levels so far.. there will be a lot more levels.. this is ok? there isnt a limit on levels? or how Deep under ground the z axis goes? Apologies for the newb questions but only discovered this mod last night Shenn

I wouldn't call them newb questions -- no one has really asked about floorplans size limits before, that I've seen.
I agree with pmardle that there is likely no intended limit on the size of a floorplan, but there could be inadvertent program limits. There's a good chance that the code has a limited space in which it stores the floorplan, not actively trying to limit it though, it's just that's the way programming goes sometimes.
Anyway, very few of us on these forums are developers of MineColony, so we can't legitimately answer this for you. You'll have to wait for either rscott6666 or vlad11 to say what's happening in the code, seeing as this information isn't officially documented anywhere.

hmm, guessing if i want 50x50 blocks, that means 100x100 characters of code.... Unless i Split my plan into x4 floorplans.. and join them together.. Eek..

JMTyler is right.
No intended limits. But i imagine you might be limited to max length of a string (2 million). Or maybe max value of integer 2^31.
I think time might be the bigger limitation. If he puts 2 blocks down every second with a 50x50x12 pattern thats 250 minutes!!

Having a huge floorplan might lag or crash your Minecraft, just because the mod wasn't programmed specifically with huge floorplans in mind. Just back up your .minecraft folder and your saves before you experiment!
