Ticket #3778, comment 2
v1 v2 1 1 I did some maths and assumed that animal hp and food supply scales with the square root of real life animal weight which in most cases is quite a good assumption as you will see in the attached table. In Atlas I also put all animals together in the order of real life weight which does not fit well to their model size. There are three main reasons: 2 * The models do not have exactly the same scale. E.g. the rhino appears quite small to me especially compared to giraffes (which are too big). Note that male white rhinoceroses weigh tup to 2.4 tons and are the second largest animals on land.2 * The models do not have exactly the same scale.

E.g. polar bears are 5 times heavier than southern European brown bears. I always tried to pick the species which live in central/southern Europe, near/middle East or North Africa 4 4 * Some species like the North African Elephant do not live any more. Also there have been tigers and lions in the near/middle East where you can't find them anymore. Of course these species might deviate from those who still live today. 5 My hp calculations are quite good in most cases but they yield too much hpfor whales and to less food supply for chicken because they are so light. What do you think?5 My HP calculations are quite good in most cases but they yield too much HP for whales and to less food supply for chicken because they are so light. What do you think?
