  Estimating Land Sizes and Values

  Posted by profmag on March 4, 2021 at 9:48 pm

  We want to sell land and buildings as part of the economy of New City in STF. To be able to peg E-land SparkQuest STF Map property to real-world values, we’ll need to do some calculations and research.

  First, property values can be expressed as average $/acre. But what is an acre in MC? According to MC Forums, a 4 chunk x 4 chunk area would be about an acre. This would work out to:

  1 acre = 4 x 4 chunk area = 16 chunks
  1 chunk = 16 x 16 blocks = 256 blocks/chunk
  256 blocks/chunk x 16 chunks = 4096 blocks/acre

  This means we can:

  1. Count the blocks in a area to be sold,
  2. Convert this area to acres or sq. meters (1 acre = 4046.86 sq. m.),
  3. Research reference property values online for similar properties
  4. Set a price per block for the area to be sold based on this rate.
