scale question

[micky]

So right now my game is 16x16 tiles, and I noticed by doing 1 pixel per meter that my tiles are the same size as a cube that is 16x16.. this also means my physics carries huge numbers for gravity and things.. is making 16 = 1 a good idea for a pixel game? Or should I just deal with everything being huge in the editor.

You can scale up gravity, or alternatively, set it to 100 pixels per meter or so - at that sorta scale, its still easy to position relative to pixels (0.01 = 1 pixel) and you won't need to worry about gravity as much then.
