Re: Mod Idea: Simulating surfaces -> Borg Technology -> Twinkie Physics -> Worldviews
Well, okay,
So the larger the object, hypothetically the more twinkies it should be able to contain. However the actual surface area of the object can have a huge effect on the internal volume (with the maximal volume to surface ratio being appreciated by a sphere). As such, Borg ships should, on average, be able to carry more twinkies per kT of hull plating than can the Enterprise. Star Destroyers should have a reasonable ratio, whereas mon Calamari cruisers should have a slight edge over them. X-wing fighters and Tie-fighters are not so good for Twinkie transport, but of the two, I'd give the prize to the X-wing (removal of the R2 helps in this regard). In the end, you can count on the pilot eating the lions' share of the twinkies anyway, unless it's a Wookie pilot - then you're guaranteed that there will be none delivered to the destination.
