Default Re: Proportions 2.1 available

I think it is very reasonable to fit over 4million population on a transport. Depending of the size of the ships in this mod. ( i have not played it yet). But i am assuming that the largest of the large reach the size of baseships. Now a base ship is just about as large as the empire state building if you count tonnage. The empire state building has 37million cubic feet. Lets say that large baseship sized ship uses 1/2 its cubic feet on cargo. that is about 19million cubic feet. Now lets say the cryo chambers are 10feet tall 5 feet deep and 5 feet wide. that means you could would have 3.8milx3.8milx1.9mil chambers in that combined cargo space.

that makes about 27M peoples. Using only 1/2 its volume for cargo space. if it used more like 4/5 for cargo space. it would be about 30million cubic feet.
so you would get 3milx6milx6mil. 108M peoples on da ship.

Now mabey the ships in this mod are much smaller or the people in it are just giant lardos i dunno.

But using regular ship sizes. About 108Million peeps could fit on a dedicated Cargo ship loaded to the brim with cryo-statis chambers.
