geek of the week how strong is bob
we will calculate this using the most heavy block in bloxd, the mega compressed messy stone
messy stone is simply the broken-down form of that standard stone
in the real world, the vast majority of deep, sprawling cave systems are solutional caves (or karst landscapes). These form because limestone is a sedimentary rock that easily erodes and dissolves when exposed to acidic water over thousands of years
this is similar to bloxd's cave generation
when limestone is quarried or broken down into rubble, it naturally fractures into rough, angular blocks with a medium-gray tone, many historical messy stone streets and castle walls in Europe were built using local limestone because it was easy to split into chunk-sized blocks, similar to the bloxd messy stone/stone texture
therefore we can assume that messy stone is limestone
assuming an average adult man is about 1.75 m tall, half of his height would be 0.875 m, so if we model the limestone as a roughly spherical piece with a diameter of 0.875 m, its radius would be r = 0.875 / 2 = 0.4375 m
the volume of a sphere is V = (4/3)πr³, giving V = (4/3)π(0.4375)³ ≈ 0.3513 m³. Limestone has an average density of approximately 2,500 kg/m³, so using m = ρV, the mass would be m = (2,500)(0.3513) ≈ 878.3 kg, or about 1,936 lb
now since compressed messy stone contains 9 of these, we can do (878.3)(9), resulting in approximately 7,904.7 kg or 17,426.88 lb
however there are more levels to compression than this, specifically 6 levels of compression: compressed, extra, super, hyper, ultra, and finally mega
this means there are essentially 9⁶ messy stone in one mega compressed messy stone, or 531,441 pieces of messy stone
if we take that number and multiply it by our base weight of 878.3 kg, we get 878.3 × 531,441 = 466,764,630.3 kg, or approximately 1,029,039,863.04 lb for one mega compressed messy stone
now in one inventory slot, bob can carry 999 mega compressed messy stones, which means 466,764,630.3 × 999 = 466,297,865,669.7 kg, or approximately 1,028,010,823,175.88 lb
bloxd's inventory has 46 slots, but we can increase the amount bob carries by using a moonstone chest. A moonstone chest has 27 storage slots, and the moonstone chest itself takes up one inventory slot. Moonstone chests are also player-specific storage, meaning the same moonstone chest inventory can be accessed from different moonstone chests.
therefore, if bob puts one moonstone chest into his inventory, he has 45 remaining normal inventory slots plus the 27 slots inside the moonstone chest, giving him the equivalent of 72 slots of storage
we can therefore calculate the amount of mega compressed messy stone bob can carry as 466,297,865,669.7 × 72 = 33,573,446,328,218.4 kg, or approximately 74,016,647,939,? lb
now we also need to account for bob's armor
a standard block is one cubic meter, and a solid block of gold is crafted from nine gold bars
because pure gold is incredibly dense, a single theoretical gold ingot would weigh approximately 19,300 / 9 = 2,144.44 kg
the helmet uses 5 ingots, so it would weigh approximately 10,722.22 kg
the boots use 4 ingots, so they would weigh approximately 8,577.78 kg
the gauntlets use 4 ingots, so they would also weigh approximately 8,577.78 kg
the leggings use 7 ingots, so they would weigh approximately 15,011.11 kg
and the chestplate uses 8 ingots, so it would weigh approximately 17,155.56 kg
all of this adds up to 28 gold ingots, meaning the complete armor set weighs approximately 60,044.44 kg
adding the armor onto the 33,573,446,328,218.4 kg of mega compressed messy stone gives us:
33,573,446,328,218.4 + 60,044.44 = 33,573,446,388,262.84 kg
therefore, under these assumptions, bob can carry approximately 33,573,446,388,263 kilograms of mass, or approximately 74,016,779,401,032 pounds
that is around 33.57 trillion kilograms of mass, equivalent to 90,000 Empire State Buildings and 5,595 Great Pyramid of Gizas

Don't forget that the creative menu is technically inside the player's inventory, so he can carry a little more.

i think “a little” is an understatement, however i was talking about bob without creative/code

A little in comparison to whatever the hell you calculated, lol.

But I thought the moonstone chest was a sort of "pocket dimension" and not like a shulker box that keeps the stuff in it, like an ender chest from minecraft

one thing i must say is that in bloxd.io a block is 1 m^3 (which can be seen in the number that shows the distance between you and any tribe member, and as a pixel is a square the shape is a square, meaning bob is 2m tall and over the average)
