Depending on dynamic objects density, cluster size can increase its size without limits. We solved it by clustering the game world into independent clusters of objects (minimal cluster size is 20km).

The harder one was to change the integration between Space Engineers and Havok (so Havok can keep using 32-bit floating point numbers).

We have modified all game objects to support double-precision 64-bit floating point numbers - this was the easy part.

This data format has a certain precision, leading to visible imperfections on objects located further than 10km from the origin

Until now, Space Engineers and its physics engine (Havok) were using single-precision 32-bit floating point numbers.

How did we increase the precision of numerical computations?

If you decide to use your ship to travel from one side of the game world to the opposite, and you will fly on maximum speed (115 m/s), it will take you 552 years (checking calculation: 2 x 6.6 AU / 115 m/s).įor all practical purposes, “super-large worlds” could be considered “infinite worlds”, but the limit is still there and we don’t want to lie to you.
