I was just looking at the coordinate system in the Rosetta and quickly figured the maximum size *one* room could have in one level.
The horizontal dimensions are a bit32 which is 2,147,483,647 units in max value. Each floor square is 1024 units so we can build a level to have a total number of 2,097,152 on a side. we are not so lucky witht he height since data constraints would limit the max height at 60 sqhares.
If each square is the equivalent of 8 feets (eyed by comparing to Lara's height), we'd get a single-room level of around 3,000 plus miles on a side.
Think about that: a whole continent.
I'd hate to have to do the textures for all those polygons, though. :-)
Think about the item list, man....
