Hello
03:33
< FlakManiak>
Hey.
03:35
< Shades_Corvid>
I am going to try and build a frame in minecraft
03:36
< FlakManiak>
A frame of frames, perhaps? (I'm so hype for the return of RedPower.)
03:39
< Shades_Corvid>
Right now just trying to make a frame statue I guess, replicate the look of the CHUB in 'rough' true scale
03:41
< Shades_Corvid>
turn to day already
03:42
< FlakManiak>
I always thought it was a little strange that the scales people talk about stipulate the height of a human, but not really the height of a frame in relation to a human. I guess there must be some stuff about that in the sections of the book I've not read? But to me, saying "7P" is insufficient; "7P and a Chub is a normal-sized mech" actually really specifies things.
03:44
< Shades_Corvid>
None of that is in the book and yeah.
03:47
< Shades_Corvid>
man, there is a creeper out there....and it going to be there in the morning I just know it and all I got is a freaking wooden sword. Of course talking here delays the night getting over.
03:51
< Shades_Corvid>
damn it crashed
03:52
< Shades_Corvid>
One of the reasons I have a blog post planned in the future about scale and such.
03:59
< FlakManiak>
I'd much prefer, and I think it's much more useful to say "the average/median/whatever frame for our purposes is X bricks/plates/king's appendages tall"
03:59
< FlakManiak>
And then who cares how tall humans are in comparison.
03:59
< FlakManiak>
You can stipulate that after and mess with it as you see fit with no consequences to the frames, really.
04:01
< Shades_Corvid>
So it is me opening up my inventory that is crashing minecraft. Sounds like a restart of the comp. That can wait until tomorrow.
04:03
< Shades_Corvid>
The Chub is set as the standard ref, the expected max box is like 10x10x12, 12 being height. The point of the human scale ref though is for terrain building and stations I think.
04:03
< Shades_Corvid>
of course none of this is in the box. This is all Voice of God.
04:03
< Shades_Corvid>
and that is studs, not plates.
04:04
< Shades_Corvid>
and gives prospect. the 7 p is in relation to real world scale to MF0 scale
04:04
< FlakManiak>
Yeah that's the thing; the bounding box gets talked about on the forums, and the Chub is... Really just the de facto basic frame.
04:05
< Shades_Corvid>
Which is sort of the point of the Chub
