Size of 1 cube in Space engineers

[Adie Killgore]

Greetings,

I am planning/trying to create the Invisible Hand, the flagship of General Grievous as seen in Star Wars Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith
This mighty vessel is 1088m long, 198m wide und 347m high
To create this ship as correctly as possible I need to know how big a metal cube is in Space engineers, is there anyone that could help me out with this?

2.5m^3 for a Station or Large Ship block.

thank you kindly sir

That's quite a task you've set yourself. Have you attempted/completed other builds of equal size? Also, keep us informed of your progress, would love to see it :)

Do it all in survival mode! =D

Large/Station: 2.5m^3
Small: .5m^3

Have fun cleaning up after your computer craps itself.

As the explicitly given answers were wrong here, lets correct them.
The edge length of large blocks is 2.5m and the edge length of small blocks is 0.5m as they are cubes.

Their volumes however is (2.5 m)³ = 15.625 m³ for large blocks and (0.5 m)³ = 0.125 m³ for small blocks.

The power of a unit applies only to the unit and not the number in front of it. Only if it is encapsulated in brackets it applies to both.
Thus a cube with an edge length of 2m has a volume of (2 m)³ = 2³ m³ = 8 m³.

You must be fun at parties.

Likewise. Trying to be insulting on a personal level clearly helps pushing your attractiveness too.

Wrong is wrong. If you got problems with that fact because someone corrected something so people hopefully stop doing things wrong and instead do it right, then you got a serious problem.

Child: "Yeah i can finally do math! 2+2=5! *smile*"
You: "I am proud of your efforts and i appreciate what you have achieved!"
Me: "Sorry but no. 2+2=4."
You: "Oh shut up."

Behaving as dickish like you do, attacking people for correcting wrong informations, is essentially the same like teaching wrong informations in the first place. Instead of simply correcting a wrong mindset, instead of learning for a better future, you do whatever that is you just did there.
I wish i had either words or even a proper motivation for that but i really dont. It is immature and even dangerous in my opinion. Anyhow, stay like you are if you want, it helps me identify people to not bother with anymore.

Have a nice day.

Awesome ship. One of my favourites from Star Wars. Good luck.

Now who is insulting someone on a personal level?

My point was that your comment sounded more like a measuring contest than supplying an answer, and seemed to me to be rather aggressive in doing so. Sounding something like this, "Since everyone here is wrong, I'M going to be right."
