How many turns until it’s the entire population of the planet?

Doubling every turn would reach 8,589,934,592 on turn 34

How long of a track would that be to hold that many people. Does the trolly have enough fuel to make it to the end? At some point wouldn't the trolly get detailed by all of the bodies piling up.

Also how are these people getting captured and tied up. How much roap would you need to tie up that many people?

How are we keeping all of the people alive during the time we are capturing them. I would think it would take a little while. You would have people dieing of dehydration before you finish.

If the people tied to the previous segments are magically moved forward to the next one, 34 turns. If not, everyone would be tied to one of the tracks at 33 turns.

Edit: forgot to add 1 to include the first lever.
