sizes and dimensions of Planet Coaster objects for Content Creators (Thememaker's Toolkit)
I made some experiments with the parts ingame to get some sizes and dimensions.
The thickness of the walls.
As you can see if you place the walls like this there is not an equal number to cover the area. Infact also 11 peices dont fit right.
I tried to replicate this in Blender since we know a generic wall is 4x4 Meters.
Applied a Array & Solidify Modifier. This is the result:
it seems the 4x4M walls are ~37.5cm thick.
37.5 cm are 14.76377 inch
and 15inch are 38.1 cm - but this also doesnt work so i really dont know why they have used ~37.5cm.
the best would be 40cm so you can fit 10 walls in there.
I found one piece wich is exactly 50cm.
4m/8=0,5m
As you can see the train tracks are 1m wide
Next i placed the Guests like this and measured a bit in Blender and came to the conclusion that the taller guests are ~1.80m and the smaller ones ~1.67m tall.
Since you cant measure the guests right because the ingame view is not orthographic these are not the actual numbers but they seem really close and realistic.
The height applies to both male and female guests.
the children are ~1.2m tall.
Animatronics are taller than the actual guests
Benches should be ~40cm tall.
so it seems Planet coaster uses real world measurements and with this knowledge we can create our objects in normal dimensions.
With the benches it seems like they used the DIN measurements for seating heights. (normal person - 46cm, small person 42cm) It would make sense since a theme park is mostly for kids.
I didnt measure the widht of some coaster tracks but i wouldnt be surprised if they match the real world tracks.
