How does levitation remove that constraint? It is still exactly the same?
You can make something levitate, removing the need for it to be supported.
I've read one where the guy basically had Minecraft powers and so he built a wall and then destroyed the supporting blocks and the wall stayed floating in air.
It had the potential to be pretty interesting, but it quickly turned into a monster girl harem manga.
Not that there's anything wrong with that in and of itself, but I gave up on it when the lead heroine used sleep magic so that the average japanese man MC could be raped by a bunch of harpies.
There was also a disturbing amount of butt stuff forced on the MC. Kinda weird all in all.
If I wasn't so familiar with manga and anime this would sound disturbing. But this barely tickles the feeling.
imma need you to link that shit, or at least name it so I can find it myself.
You're not talking about "survival in another world with my mistress" are you? He has minecraft powers and does fuck harpies, but i dont remember any rape or butt stuff. Although yeah, it was definitely a lot better before they started introducing a ton of new characters without filling them out.
The rape is off camera and downplayed immensely, but 8t does happen from an objective viewpoint
The whole issue with that is not only about weight, that hardly scratches the surface. Heat transfer, friction, radiation, mass transfer, etc. all get limited by this in some way and are FAR more consequential than weight alone.
Also diffusion.
Though that wouldn't help for many biological organisms, such as arthropods, where it's about Surface Area vs. Volume in diffusion. The oxygen diffusion rate gets too low without higher O2 concentrations
I think essentially everything affected would weigh less so you could build bigger stuff using less power to move and less support to hold stuff in place though if you wanted to make mechs I wonder if impacts would still have the same affect as it everything weighed more
I understand now that TO exclusively was thinking about weight, while that is only one of many things that are limited by the surface to volume scaling.
