Title: distances of cities in individual tiles?
Post by: thingfishs on May 04, 2010, 11:03:12 AM
I know I've seen these numbers here somewhere, possibly in an article by Ripplejet. So before I count them all myself does anyone know where I can find this info, thanks. :thumbsup:


<EDIT> "ever heard of a calculator?" ;) So I gather in the case of a large city tile it's 250 tiles across? But in the case of a small city the result is 62.5...?

<EDITEDIT> which of course means there's a central tile... don't worry, my brain's slowly catching up with my body. :D

(fwiw I am trying to make a measuring device to assist in the accurate laying out of my region. This should be deleted I guess, I tried but wasn't able to)

Quite possible... wherever that might be... ::)


Small city
64 × 64 tiles
1024×1024 m
Medium city   
128 × 128 tiles
2048×2048 m
Large city
256 × 256 tiles
   4096×4096 m

ah, so it's slightly over metric. I'm glad I didn't erase this after all, thanks Ripplejet. :thumbsup:

(thanks a lot for that link as well, that's the way to go for sure. ;D)
