Is there anything in this particular scan you could use to pixel-scale it? Or are you looking for just a general example of the average size of waves irl?

There's this shot, which, without doing any actual pixel scaling, the wave is probably around 2.5-3 meters tall.

Hmm, how tall are these characters specifically? The average wave height according to NOAA is 11 feet.

The one riding a surfboard is 190 cm tall, and the one riding a Jet Ski is about as tall as him.

Can any of our calc group members take a look at this thread about a likely error in one of our instruction pages, please?

If so, respond there rather than here please.

Ah, speaking of calculation issues, I think I noticed one in Standard Feats. The Vaporizing Earth calc acts as though the inner core of the Earth is liquid, but that's the outer core, which is significantly bigger. That'd lower the result a bit.

Yeah, I think that's a self-evident typo. I can patch it up if you want.Can any of our calc group members take a look at this thread about a likely error in one of our instruction pages, please?

I added the E7. Tell me if I screwed up and it should be something else...

Decided to try and make a calc on my own. Would anyone be able to look over it and give some feedback?

A question, to find area for example a country or continent on a map, should I simply find the longest distance between the two point and then use to get the Area or should I simply South North vs East to West and find the longest between the two and use that to get the area instead? Or is there much better way to calculate it? Like for this type of map

Area isn't typically necessary for calcs, what do you need the area for?

Unless, of course, you're trying to pixel-scale or angsize something, right?

Let just say I originally attempt to find the most accurate radius for ground level explosion using this method.... which is unnecessary long and complicated. Well, I already change it to most basic by using the diameter instead.

There's some way to measure pixels (and thus area) via GIMP and similar editors.
In GIMP, select your area with the selector wand or whatever tool you prefer, and add Windows -> Dialogues -> Histogram. It'll tell you how many pixels are in the selection. Pixels are inherently already square pixels, so determining that gives you the ability to measure area appropriately.

We don't? I could've sworn we did at one point. What happened to that?
- 2,680
- 2,475
It was debunked.

It was because of speed iinm, right?
- 35,131
- 41,758
No, it was because there's no air in space for shockwaves to propagate which renders our explosion formulae useless.
- 35,131

Highly context-sensitive IMHO.

Can you explain more?
- 35,131

Basically, depends on the context available to us, since end of the day the laser would still need to qualify for at least 2-3 criteria on our light/laser dodging beam feats page to qualify for the speed value.
- 2,136

Gotcha. Some of those would be that it fires in a straight line, comes from a mechanical source, and is directly called a laser right? And that in turn would excuse the force?

My opinion would be that the force would need to be within normal boundaries for light, which is in most cases essentially none. If it was mentioned to have had force but had practically no effects visible to humans, and it otherwise fit, we'd accept it, methinks.
- 2,136

What if the laser was explicitly called light?
- 4,837
- 6,028
While light based laser do technically have force in the form of Radiation Pressure, most of the time, it is so insignificant that it can be disregarded; like, you’re average laser would probably be clocking in at billionths of a newton. So, if a laser displayed any real tangible effect of force on an object without saying that it’s like, idk, a trillion watt laser or something, it’d probably go against our rule regarding it.

Also, if someone is able to knock out with a single hit an car-sized angry cow, can we get their LS via that?
The feat happens off-screen, statements with images are the only reliable source of that, unfortunately.

So in one punch man, there is the serious punch squared feat which causes an explosion that destroys a whole lotta stars. Now I wanted to calc how fast the serious punch explosion was and the fact that blast was able to react and redirect the explosion before it went fully off. I want help with that.
I have made some calcs, and I wanted to someone knowledgeable to review it and see if there is any faults or if it breaks some sort of guidelines because frankly I am not very used to making calcs like these. Just wanted know how feasible of a calc it is.

99.9% of the time this would be calc stacking and hence not allowed. (Or, depending on how you put it, a self-calculated multiplier which is also not allowed)
In the 0.1% of the time when you have a case that avoids calc stacking it would be allowed.
