  2. Map seed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Map_seed

    In video games using procedural world generation, the map seed is a (relatively) short number or text string which is used to procedurally create the game world ("map"). "). This means that while the seed-unique generated map may be many megabytes in size (often generated incrementally and virtually unlimited in potential size), it is possible to reset to the unmodified map, or the unmodified ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hegman_gauge

    The grooves decrease in depth from one end of the block to the other, according to a scale stamped next to them. A typical Hegman gauge is 170mm by 65mm by 15mm, with a channel of grooves running lengthwise, 12.5mm across and narrowing uniformly in depth from 100 μm to zero and used to determine particle size .

    Block; Tract; Blocks (groups of joined or non-joined subdivided surveyed land) are not restricted to rectangles or squares but based on survey layouts and individual property bounds. Original block lines were drawn before any official boundaries were created. Tracts, found within blocks, are special categories. Neither blocks nor tracts obey ...

  5. Mineral resource estimation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mineral_resource_estimation

    The block model is essentially a set of specifically sized "blocks" in the shape of the mineralized orebody. Although the blocks all have the same size, the characteristics of each block differ. The grade, density, rock type and confidence are all unique to each block within the entire block model. An example of a block model is shown on the right.

  6. Grain (unit) - Wikipedia

    A grain is a unit of measurement of mass, and in the troy weight, avoirdupois, and apothecaries' systems, equal to exactly 64.798 91 milligrams.It is nominally based upon the mass of a single ideal seed of a cereal.

  7. Gauge block - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauge_block

    Gauge blocks (also known as gage blocks, Johansson gauges, slip gauges, or Jo blocks) are a system for producing precision lengths. The individual gauge block is a metal or ceramic block that has been precision ground and lapped to a specific thickness. Gauge blocks come in sets of blocks with a range of standard lengths.

  8. Homer (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homer_(unit)

    A homer (Hebrew: חֹמֶר ḥōmer, plural חמרם ḥomārim; also כֹּר kōr) is a biblical unit of volume used for liquids and dry goods. One homer is equal to 10 baths, or what was also equivalent to 30 seahs; each seah being the equivalent in volume to six kabs, and each kab equivalent in volume to 24 medium-sized eggs. [1]

  9. Timekeeping in games - Wikipedia

    This may occur at the same or different rates from the passage of time in the real world. For example, in Terraria, one day-night cycle of 24 hours in the game is equal to 24 minutes in the real world. [1] In a multiplayer real-time game, players perform actions simultaneously as opposed to in sequential units or turns.
