Unit

Everything in the Creation Kit is measured in "units".

• The game's measurement system is scaled so that 128 world units is equal to 6 feet.
• An exterior cell is 4096 by 4096 world units across, or 192 by 192 feet across.
  • Heightmapped terrain within a single cell is 32 by 32 vertices across.
• Havok collision data uses meters as its unit of measurement.

The conversion formulae:

• Havok units to game units: hk × 69.99125 = wu
• Game units to feet: wu × 0.046875 = ft

This table aims to give an approximation, though the numbers are much less precise then their significant digits may imply.
