Sorry but nope, I'm interested in clarifying rules, not in helping everyone make pages for verses I don't care about.

Oh very well...If I’m going to do this I should definitely get help from someone though, cause my own best effort doesn’t seem to be good enough so maybe I shouldn’t do it anymore.

Then the explosion needs to be calculated rather than crash
Small planes exist IRL

Yes but that one is obviously supposed to be a passenger airliner which are MUCH larger than that. At best, that one is about the size of those propeller planes that can only fit one or two people as long as their heads are sticking out. Because its size is inconsistent with what it’s supposed to be, it’s pretty much certain that the scale is off.

Go ahead and think the scale is off if needed

Bruh. You seriously don’t think that’s too small? Have you even been to an airport?
Can we get a tiebreaker here?

Great. Another dead end. I’m not good at explaining things, and I’m even worse with making calcs.

Sorry but I have very low confidence right now...
I’ll now retreat into the shadows for a bit.

I’m feeling better now. Also I just remembered that the argument I made with the size issue probably isn’t valid because of how common it is in fiction. Buildings in many cartoons such as SpongeBob are often seen as far larger on the inside than the outside. Roblox is no exception, because when someone “enters” an object of that size, they are instead teleported to an area outside of the main area that normally is inaccessible otherwise and appears larger on the inside than the object that was “entered.” I apologize for my error and I’ll concede to nerfing Skeletox’s airplane destroying feat to as low as 9-A. Skeletox himself is at least 9-A anyway due to size.

Does anyone here agree that the average cruising speed of a passenger airliner is somewhere in the Subsonic range?

As far as Google is concerned, that seems to be the case.

Question 2 would destroying a plane that’s about the size of a single story house with an explosion be about...Small Building level?
- 7,780
- 11,571
Destroy it how?
- 1,666
- 272
Pretty much just by generating an explosion within the plane via explosion manipulation
- 7,780
- 11,571
I mean how much is actually destroyed? Do you have a scan you could provide?
- 18,196

Depends how big the explosion is. Use pixel scaling to find the radius of the explosion.
If you have the radius of the explosion (R) in meters, the yield is Y grams of TNT, where Y = ((R/0.28)^3)/2

That’s gonna be kinda hard to get since most of the footage I’ve seen has the plane exploding offscreen, also it’s Roblox which isn’t very reliable when it uses just the generic explosion particles but I did see it once so maybe if I can find that footage specifically.

And if you can’t tell here, I suspect that the developer didn’t think that someone would be actually able to see it.
- 1,666
- 272
Yes. And I’m glad I was able to find it. Though in all honesty I think there are one or two inconsistencies with the scenario.
So this is what we have to work with?
If so, this could probably be calced.
- 1,666

Okay, no one asked but I feel like this is worth mentioning:
An explosion that small and at that location on a plane of that kind should only really blow the tail off and cause the plane to crash elsewhere. This one just disappears like it was vaporized.

It seems to me that the intention was for the explosion to engulf the plane, and that the shockwave around the fireball is supposed to be part of the explosion as well. Otherwise it wouldn't just vanish like that. I think that it vanishing instantly is due to the limitations of the creator's scripting abilities, but given they had the option for it to crash, you could calculate the radius to include the shockwave as the high-end, and just the fireball as the low-end.

What does “near total fatalities” mean? Also I forgot to ask this before but what is pixel scaling?
- 7,780
- 11,571
It just means that almost everybody died (although literally "fatality" includes injured). Pixel scaling is like when you have a character that's 5 feet tall, and 30 pixels tall, and so you divide it and get that one pixel = 0.166~ feet. Then you can use that pixel scale to measure other things.

Expect bugs as this is very unfinished! We're working on taking the game to a much more stable experience in future updates, thanks for your patience! Await the remake of BFS, 2.0 for the full vision of the game to take hold! Skin Market for other gamepasses...

So 5 feet is 30 pixels is 1.5 meters huh?
Due to the distance away and the inability to close the distance I had to try to compare the size of the tail to the size of the characters and then compare that to the explosion, so this is more of an estimate as a result but the air blast appears to cover 6 meters in radius.

No, that's just an example. You have to pixel-scale for the specific scene.

how am i supposed to post it? i need a site to post it

Oh. Actually I didn’t use pixels in my comparison
- 7,780
- 11,571
Yes, so now if you have a character in the scene you want to measure, you know they are 154cm, and can pixel-scale from there.
I'd recommend Imgur for uploading images.

I do on both, I will do Imgur, but just curious, is there any other option?
- 7,780
- 11,571
As far as I know that's the easiest way, but I'm sure there are other options.
Also, if you click "open original" on the image in Discord, that link might work.
