Digitalocean cannot create cluster

Description

Trying to create a cluster through getporter on digitalocean but it keeps failing:

I'm pretty sure there's an easy fix but I couldn't find it in the tutorial. I'm not very experienced with kubernetes so please be patient with me.

Location

  • [Chrome ] Browser
  • [?? ] CLI
  • [ Digitalocean ?? ] API

Steps to reproduce

  1. Create cluster
  2. Use Ams3, put on use kubernetes services, give it a name
  3. Tell you understand all kinds of things and press create cluster
  4. Wait for it to eventually fail. (I can see an actual cluster is created in DO. It just doesn't push through)

Additional Details

I hope this is clear enough

Hey @acountrec, thanks for checking out Porter! You have to increase your DigitalOcean droplet limit from the DO console. If you click the Settings tab in the DO console, and then increase the limit to at least 12. The cluster starts at 3 droplets by default, but 12 is the maximum amount of droplets that your cluster can scale to.

Let me know if this works!
