Author Topic: Plate has 205 million studs  (Read 4566 times)

I did some calculations and I found out the Plate maps have exactly 205,520,896 studs before they run out and you fall off the map. Discuss.

... in v21... studs will be infinite

edit, yeah, that's all I have to contribute to this fact.

I presume you counted the studs...? Or did you, perhaps, figure out the size of the .dts, then calculate studs per length or something?

YES! That's because this replaces terrain, and terrain is infinite because it loops.

0,0 to one corner: 10,137 bricks
Corner to corner: 14,336 bricks
0,0 to edge: 7,168 bricks
Area of slate: 205,520,896 bricks²
You are correct!

You are correct!

It's not squared, there are 14336 on each side, so it's 14336^2, not 205 million squared. I got 1x64s, put them across one side, did 64x224 then did calculations to get 205mil.

Do you see a squared symbol on the number? No, there isn't one.

There is.

on the number

205,520,896 bricks² does not mean 205,520,896 * 205,520,896

if you put it like kalphiter has it, you're just saying that's the surface area.
if you had a ^2 on the NUMBER, then you're being lazy and not calculating the exponent in.

He's right

I wonder how deep slate is...

^2 = squared.

^2 = squared.
