Rule: a block counts when its centre lies inside the circle (boundary included), on the same block grid as the game. All 124 rows are computed by our engine; checked 21 Oct 2026. Free to reuse under CC BY 4.0 with a link.
How to use the chart
- Pick the diameter: the full width of the circle in blocks, wall included.
- Gather the blocks: the "Thin" column for a simple ring, "Thick" for a wall without diagonal gaps, "Filled" for a floor.
- Build one quarter with the pattern, then repeat it in the other three. The circle guide shows the steps, and the studio shows every block on a grid.
Questions
How many blocks are in a circle?
About 2.8 times the diameter for a thin outline and about 0.785 times the diameter squared for a filled disc. Exact counts: 25 wide = 68 outline / 489 filled; 100 wide = 280 outline / 7,860 filled.
Odd or even diameter?
Odd sizes (25, 31, 101) have one centre block, so a door, beacon or pillar sits exactly in the middle. Even sizes (24, 64, 100) have a 2×2 centre.
What is the quarter pattern?
The runs of blocks you place going around one quarter of the circle, from the middle of the top edge to the middle of the side. The first and last numbers are the whole flat edges. Repeat it in all four quarters.
Why do other charts give different numbers?
Charts differ in the rule they use. Ours counts a block when its centre lies inside the ideal circle, the same rule as the most popular pixel-circle generator; every number here is computed, not typed in, and the CSV has all of them.
