RE: !! Pioneer Question Time !! - Ask them here

<t>Hi Fluffy, Thanks, yes, I think I follow now. I'll have to insert some probes into the code to validate my assumptions below, but this is what I understand. Earth sector coord = 0,0,0Sirius sector coord = 1,0,-1 Distance between sectors is (by 3d vector math) 1.41 truncated to 1. Units are in LY ...

RE: !! Pioneer Question Time !! - Ask them here

<t>Thanks Fluffy, That is good to know. However, I was actually interested in understanding the LY distance calculation between the current system and the hyperspace destination system when the distance spans a single sector. Within 1 sector this seems to be the distance between source and target ...

RE: !! Pioneer Question Time !! - Ask them here

<t>Hi Guys, My question is how does the hyperspace distance (LY) calculation actually work across sectors on the galaxy map? Any insight would be appreciated! Thx! In SectorView.cpp, SectorView::Draw3D() there is the following which appears to calculate the LY distance: if (m_inSystem) { vector3f dv ...
