• [DESIGN] How big is enough? Ian Hess
  I've been hacking at a hobby project for some time,between playing and
  administrating various games. Ingoing back to work on my db schema
  again, I've runinto questions about how big to make the world, andthe
  obvious fallout in performance and storage, as wellas population
  density.
  
  I've been thinking about a world size in terms of howlong it could take
  a determined character to walk fromone side to the other. I was curious
  if there are othermetrics that might be better used to determine a
  maximumscale to plan for.
  
  Thanks,
  Ian Hess
