I'm trying to build Disney World on a 1:1 scale and I'm stuck.

Does anyone here know what the measurement in meters for 1:1 scale is? like for example, in minecraft, one block is one meter long on a 1:1 scale.

answer if you can, thanks

@Rider, I do not believe that.

A standard door is two meters high.
A Robloxian is over 5ft which is bigger than a meter.

I'd say one meter is about 2 - 3 studs.

1:20 is the official scale. Robloxians are approximately the size of a LEGO figurine.

He wants the measurements as if a Robloxian was the size of a person.

Not a LEGO sized figure in a real scale world!

One meter is approximately 2 - 3 studs if a robloxian is real sized.

Well I would say about 1 ft = 1 stud.

The only problem is that robloxians are quite fat (4 ft).

Just build using your man as the scale. Don't think in inches or meters, but rather think of the size of your character. Height , shoulders width , hands high.
A doorway is taller than the man.6 stud by 4 stud is a small door size.
Windows are centered to your eyesight. 4x4 is a good window size at 2 studs high.
Countertops are at waist level. 2 or 2.5 studs.
Ceilings are normally 8 studs or higher.

Its hard to create a scale properly when you don't know the exact size of your man. Is your character a child or an adult.

I like to think that 1 stud = 1 foot, This comes close to a character being an adult. And 1 inch = 0.1 stud. So with this scale a stud is 1 foot high and ten inches wide.

I'd say that 1ft = 1 stud.
So 1 Meter is about 3 studs.
(3.333 to be exact.)

Using a man as a scale is the best.
However, a meter can't be less than 4 studs because that would mean each avatar is a meter wide.

Well then each Robloxian must be a dwarf because if you're under 4ft 9 inches you're classed as a dwarf.

I'd say 10 studs would be a meter.
But everything would be giant.

I'd say 3 and a half is the only way the building wouldn't look weird.

An Avg. ROBLOXIAN is 4 studs. So 1.5 ft for each stud would be a nice mesurement.

By jhend's scale about 4.5 studs would be a meter which seems about right.
