I have a very confusing question. How do people make the plane the same length as the real one? I want to make a new Concorde...but when I look up the length...I get 202' 4” <(don’t know what that means) and I don’t know how to convert it into SimplePlanes. I’m really confused plz help.

    @Minecraftpoweer converting meters to feet, you have to multiply by 3.26, and then divide by two.
    Feet to meters is divide by 3.26, then multiply by two.

    @Minecraftpoweer all I am saying is that the system of measurement in the designer is 1/2 of Metric scale.
    As in one block is 1/2 meter long.
    Has nothing to do with the size of something you have already built.
    If you wanted to make a line of blocks 32.6 feet long, how many blocks would you use?
    This is basic stuff.

    @Gestour so you are telling me that simpleplanes is half of the size? So my 1to1 scale strv is half the size and not the same?

    Just google
    202' 4" in meters.
    Then double that number.

    202' is 202 feet.
    4" is 4 inches.
    There are 12 inches in a foot.
    12 ÷ 4 = .3333

    That was the most confusing thing ever. How do you get 202.333333 out of that?@Gestour

    SimplePlanes scaling is 1/2 Metric.
    202' 4" is 202.333333 feet.
    Convert 202.33333 to meters. 202.33333 ÷ 3.26 = 62.065.
    Now convert that to half scale. 62.065 * 2 = 124.13.
    124.13 SP units.
