Greetings,
As you all know, Gravity is the force pushing an object down. Each Planet has it's own gravity. Now it's come to my attention that the gravity for the Moons/Planets of GC may not be mathematically accurate.
First we need a base Gravity.
I will be measuring gravity using blocks/s2 and converting it into m/s2.
As you all know, the jump height in Minecraft is 1 block. Therefore the gravity is 1 block/s2.
1 Block/s2 = 9.8 m/s2
Now to the other planets.....
The Moon is believed to have about 1.620 m/s2.
Therefore, if we do 9.8 / 1.620, the jump height would be around 6.04, or 6 blocks/s2
The current Moon Jump height is around 3.9 blocks, so it's 35% inaccurate
Mars has a gravity is about 3.711 m/s2
9.8 / 3.711 is about 2.64 , so something around 2.64 blocks/s2 would be a good gravity
The current Mars Jump height is around 3.2 blocks/s2, so this is a 17.5% inaccurate gravity.
I don't know if Addon Authors have accurate gravity for their planets, But I find that it would be a good idea to make GC have close-to-real Gravity's of each Planet/Moon.
