      On paper, sure, but we’ve seen many times where individuals are in completely separate areas of the holo world. The whole world War II bit in VOY, and when boymler went off trying to find the meaning g of life in his own program. Doubtless there’s more examples but that’s all I have in the memory buffer right now.

        Another example is when Troi and LaForge go looking for Barclay and discover the goddess of empathy. They cover quite the distance to find Barclay.

      Frequently however characters will go on to the holo deck and walk further apart from each other than is possible in the limited space. So it must be able to do some kind of partitioning.

      Like in voyager when they simulated the entire town, it was a town it was much bigger than the holodeck which seems to be only about the size of a tennis court.
