1 Blender unit is 1 Foot
So 50k BU's would be 50k feet....that's a bit more than 3 miles. More like 8.3 Nautical miles, or 9.46 standard miles.

So, Drizzle now does a better job on Moul Ages: Minkata, the 4 pods, and 5 guild Ages, and the LiveBahroCaves are fully functional. Jalak has a key interface instead of a GUI, but otherwise works right. All linking books and ladders in all Ages work. Tsogal and Delin need a medium-sized Python overhaul, but since it's a multiplayer puzzle I'm not interested.
Both Crowthistle Ages and supported, as are most of the Myst5 Ages. Just a small amount of more work is needed on that.

Does the lift in the shaft work? It'd be cool to do that ride again... not to mention fall 3 miles, provided the Panic Link Regions were lowered/removed.

How do we convert Myst V ages? Is this a new version of drizzle I don't know about?

Jeffrey: not yet, but Drizzle is much easier to use than before: Some people can figure it out if I get them started by saying you want the Automation->MystV tab for MystV, and the Automation->Moul tab for Moul.
TG: no, that would involve playing with the Python which I haven't done for MystV yet. I think GPNMilano might take a look at it. The plan is to not have the tablet, but just enable the button on the pedestal that links you to the other pedestals.
Tweek: thanks! I think both of us are mostly interested in having the Moul Ages available offline, as opposed to getting the Myst5 Ages on there.
All Myst5 Ages are now supported. I've just added some more screenshots at the link I posted above. I'm no longer stuck in the library on Myst Island!

Drizzle was great, Drizzle 2 is pure bliss. I can't wait to try this, Dustin.
I'm a fan of Myst V Ages (as opposed to the game story). Getting them in Uru is so much better than having to fish for the CD and start Myst V.
What I'd like to do as a pet project would be grafting the volcano interior into the one in the Cleft. Alas, this will have to wait a few months.

I would call that full sized. You would have to rewrite everything in Python that is now inside the executable.
It doesn't need to be multiplayer. Just slow down the timers.
