How much owned land is to much ?

It's old but gold. If it could help you out we've probably chucked it in here.

How much owned land is to much ?

Post by Zinrius » 09 Mar 2011, 21:13

I see that the cost for Cuboids is 10 gold blocks or 2 diamond blocks. But Suppose someone like... Mydrox... Decides he wants to turn his 560 ( approximately ) diamonds into blocks and bought cuboids.

From my understanding, the Cuboided area covers 128x128. So lets say mydrox spend his diamonds on all the cuboids he could get... ANYWAYS you get my point.

How much land can one cuboid ? Is 50% of the world map even possible to own by these terms ? I read no limitations as to how much land one can buy.

Seeing as you can not cuboid a whole town... something tells me this would hint towards a possible limit to how much you can cuboid.

hmm, would be interesting to know numbers though just in case someone asks or wants to plan out how much cuboid they can actually own in diameter to build as much as they can in it without it being *unfair* or *out of regulation*.

According to server rules, an individual cuboid lock is to be set on a building rather than an area. Unless you happen to have a megastructure (Imperial City, Gigapuddi, Alantis, etc.) The cuboid lock won't be all that big.

That's why my question put someone like Mydrox in it :lol: Buying multiple cuboids to "expand" further than this *lock*

We won't cuboid empty land, but if he builds 100 nice structures, and wants to buy cuboids for them, he can. I doubt he can put a dent in our 38 million square block area :)

I wouldn't worry about it

Sounds like a challange 8-) You're on! 10 billion squares worth of structures coming up!

Ok, so lets do some quick math, and assuming we allowed 128x128 cuboids (very, very few of them are this large), it would be 2300 cuboids, which would cost about 10k diamonds (not blocks). Even Mydrox isn't that rich.

It's just not going to happen...

128x128 .. *coughs at his 150 x 150 x 128 cuboid*. Although I did pay 3 DB for it and it is all inside 1 structure.
