Length... The length of a ship is calculated often in meters with 1 meter= 1 tile. The thing is that your ship is 2 times shorter than you think if you measure it like that. Why? Let me explain.

Two people can fit in a meter of a straight line, for example:

4 people are waiting at a bagel store in a line. The line is about 2 meters long.

This means that with the huge ships mod, your ships have a maximum length of 500 meters.

Sense makes?

i dont understand
1 tile = 1 meter (it's written in game)
if my ship is 1000 tiles long, it's one kilometer long

where am i wrong?

Super_Mapper this makes no seance. 500 tiles is 500 meters, 1000 tiles is a km. Simple, your over complicating a simple thing.

Two crew can comfortably fit onto one tile.
They also wait in a stack of 240 if it really comes to it

2 people can fit in a 1m tile,but what's that got to do with length? I mean,it's not like the crew can somehow warp the space around them,or have them be 1 meter thicc....

My point is: It doesn't matter if 2 crew can fit in 1 tile, the scale is still the same

Altraxia exactly my point. He is over thinking. Crew got no affect on the size of our ships.

    Without the phasing thing... Just imagine that every "| " is a crew member.

    That's 2 meters.

    If 1 tile= 1 meter then the crew are super thick. They would be 1 meter from shoulder to shoulder and from back to chest about 0.75 meters. That is unnatural. Cuz it is EXTRA THICK.

    Super_Mapper what... Except the ships are not measured in crew Their measured in TILES.

      kola2134 And a tile is 0.5 meters!

        Super_Mapper No a tile is 1 meter.

          kola2134 Then the crew are incredibly deformed!

          The crew sleep on 0.5×0.85 tile beds
          They stand 0.75×0.35 tiles.

          Super_Mapper It has already been confirmed by Walt that the crewmembers are superdwarfes.

            Super_Mapper i
            Crew are not humans though sooo no 1 block is still 1 meter

              as i said, it's written in game

                  Hey fun fact gun range is measured in meters and you can fire at a block that many meters away to test this yourself
