Can anyone answer this question, since I am very bad at the math thing, and
figuring Sq meters, or meters... I just bought a PS16 World(250,000 square meters of virtual land) or as my order form reads (500 x 500 meters virtual land). Actually its two questions I have: 1) How many lots would I have if I make it 5 x 5 meters for each lot? 2) How many lots would I have if I make it 10x10 meters for each lot? I have asked many people online, and no one yet has given me the same answer twice. A world owner said that I could get 200 5x5 lots or 100 10x10 lots without roads on it. I am looking just to find out how big the area would be set up on graph paper before adding anything to it like roads, ground zero etc...so I can get an idea of how many plots of land I have to work with to setup the world, and to allow for building etc. Thanks for any and all responses.

Hi there Beardo
Thanks for answering my question so promptly. So, if I use 10m tiles and make my lots 6 x 6 tiles, I should get approximately 64 lots, for the 500x500meters of virtual land??? Correct? I am so confused by this meters thing, I never did well with the math stuff in school either, never thought I would need it so much (haha)... >Hi, > >If my math is correct you will have 2.500 tiles of 10x10 meter. And 10.000 >tiles 5x5 meter. > >10x10=100 (one tile) >250.000/100=2.500 > > >I hope I'm correct :) > >Regards, > >Björn Mitz >Beardo in Active Worlds >UVC - United Virtual Communities >ICQ-4185626 >http://home5.swipnet.se/~w-57902/ >Terminated 4 SPAMMERS so far :) > > can anyone answerJul 5, 1998, 11:11pm
Thanks everyone with the answers. I was using 6x6 minus 1 for roadways
laid out on graph paper...and I come back with 64 total lots, with 15 that are 6x5 and the balance of them are 5x5. So I wasn't too far off.... thank you all so much, I really appreciate it, much, I can see this area will help me intensely since I am totally new at this. My world should be coming soon......I hope. Its called (AFantasy)...aka Fantasy Island. And my handle is Sexy Eyes.....or Terri. [View Quote] can anyone answerJul 7, 1998, 10:39am
Well not all of us are very good at math. I had explained that in my first
letter if you had bothered to notice. If I am not supposed to inquire then whats the purpose of the newsgroup anyway... and if you want to tell me I put it in the wrong area. It was a wish for me!!!!! I would give anything to understand math now, but unfortunately I am lost when it comes to it. It is probably my only fault. Sexy Eyes [View Quote] |
