What does 1m equate to irl?

[majorvex]

Curious…
If you travel 50m on a Boundless planet, do you consider that to be meters? Miles? Something else?

How many voxels/blocks/plots = a mile?

[Sujimichi88]

1 block = 1m in boundless right?
Assuming that’s right, then i consider 1 block = 1m irl too.
Assuming oortians are regular human-size, oortians are roughly 1.5 to 2 blocks (meters) high

I don’t use this silly made-up imperial system, but 1.000 blocks equates to 1 kilometer to me

You can use google to convert units

[FF7animefreak]

1m equals roughly to 3ft

[AlexxChristo]

I’d say it’s a meter- i could put my oortian feet across it three times.

[majorvex]

How many total meters across are the planets? 2500-3000? (or are they spherical?)

[Apt]

a map is 4600x4600 blocks

[lucadeltodecso]

Square, 4608m across (or 3072 for exo worlds)

Thank you

[AeneaGames]

1 block is 1 metre, yep! Our characters are max 1.90m according to the character customisation screen and we can walk thru an opening of 2 blocks high!

@majorvex

How many voxels/blocks/plots = a mile?

1609 blocks = a mile

[majorvex]

Thank you

Questions

1 m is about 39 in-game inches, the length of the side of a basic placeable block. One plot is 8x8 blocks, or 0.64 are, so 100 plots (0.64 hectare) is about one and a half in-game acres, or just slightly larger than one American football field. What counts is any measurement given in “m” refers to the length of one of the edges of a basic placeable block.

[AlexxChristo]

so 1609 blocks = 1 mile
which means that 804,500 blocks makes 500 miles.
so it’d take me 1,609,000 blocks just to fall down at your door.

[Aragorn]

Hehe I was thinking the same thing lol

[majorvex]

Now that song is stuck in my head lol

So that means our planets have a radius of 733 meters. So mantle is imaginary wise at like 600m, though in actuality mantle and max height are the same radius (which is of course mathematically impossible). Lol

[FireAngelDth]

Psst planets are square. So diameter(plus that’s the whole thing anyway and still circle/sphere. Why math gotta be complicated ), Well actually really wouldn’t be that either stupid math words

@lucadeltodecso

Square

[bregma]

Planets are toruses. That’s a square map rolled into a tube and the tube ends joined. Also known as doughnut-shaped. That means calculations of radius are correct, but it’s a cylindrical radius and not a spherical one. Also delicious with sprinkles accompanied by a chalice of Fast Brew.

[karakavra]

A world has about 22,000,000 plots, I will have to climb much more level, to get hahahaha
