Title: Dimensions
Post by: Brazilian Fan on June 07, 2007, 06:10:17 PM

I was bored, so I decided to start 'measuring' some buildings and units in OP2. In 15 minutes I had this result:

note: width x height meters

Eden:
Advanced lab: 17x22m
Residence: 10x19m
RLV: 9x3m
Starship: 73x63m
Skydock: 117x81m

Plymouth:
Residence: 9x20m
Tokamak: 15x4m
Lynx: 4x3m

These are at certain degree, incorrect. The same building/vehicles seems to have different dimensions on different cut scenes/images.

I would be curious to know how you got the measurements. What reference point did you use?

I am new here, but I would like to say this:

this measuring could be used by like an artist or graphic designer to create maybe new structures or create new shemes for the old ones?

To get those 'rought' dimensions, I used some videos with peoples as reference. Firstly I measured how many 'peoples' could fit from top to bottom, and from the right to the left. I assumed the the average height of one person was 1,70m.

NumberOfPeoples * 1,70 = height or width

For the starship and skydock, I used the RLV (height previously calculated) as a reference.

I don't think so. The numbers of maximum structures and how they function are all hardcoded inside the executable
