taking zoom level in perspective
00:00
or the other way around

ok formula is f(x) = 0.866025^(10-x) * 380 (edited)
00:03
where x is your zoom level
Avatar
i guess 10 is the zoom level
00:03
nice
Avatar
and f(x) is your mouse distance
00:03
what is x
Avatar
x is the zoom you want
00:04
for example x = 5 then your max mouse distance should be f(5)
00:04
or rather 185.1124985147074

f(x) = 0.866025^(10-x) * 380 zoom 0 = 90.1753608062041 zoom 1 = 104.12558622003301 zoom 2 = 120.2339265264086 zoom 3 = 138.83424442297692 zoom 4 = 160.3120515261995 zoom 5 = 185.1124985147074 zoom 6 = 213.74960135643593 zoom 7 = 246.81689484303098 zoom 8 = 284.99973423750004 zoom 9 = 329.08950000000004 zoom 10 = 380.0 zoom 11 = 438.78640916832654 zoom 12 = 506.66713913377384 zoom 13 = 585.0490911160462 zoom 14 = 675.5568154684288 zoom 15 = 780.0661822331098 zoom 16 = 900.7432605676621 zoom 17 = 1040.0892128606704 zoom 18 = 1200.992134015381 zoom 19 = 1386.7869103263542 zoom 20 = 1601.324338588787 heres the list of zooms and their mouse distance counterparts (edited)
00:08
@cauldron
00:09
just round the numbers since you can only use integers as a mouse distance
00:11
i stick to my 10/4 zoom level for now
00:12
no worries ill make cfgs for you xD
00:21
i'm sure it's possible to do it dynamically in code (edited)
00:23
you also want a custom client?
00:24
pretty demanding of a random on the internet but sure i could do that

wow insane i would have never in my life thought that xDD
00:27
@cauldron here are the binds. just do like exec zoom_10.cfg after extracting them into your config folder
00:28
if you want to directly switch to some of them just bind it to a key like bind <key> "exec zoom_10.cfg"
Avatar
wow thanks teero for the binds,

np was fun :)

please forgive my stupid questions, I haven't played this before 1. Is there a way to play solo (short of using LAN with only my machine)? 2. Is there a keybind to restart from checkpoint? 3. Is there a way to show decimals in the HUD timer? (edited)

1. you can join a team by writing /team x replace x with the team you want to be in. you can join teams from 0 to 63. team 0 is the default team you join when joining the server. after joining a team you can lock the team with /lock. when a team is locked it means that no other people can join this team anymore and when you kill the entire team gets killed (under the condition that you have already started the race) 2. you can use /practice to practice a map first. in the practise mode you can use /rescue i think to reset to the last position you were not freezed. 3. not really without client mods (edited)

Thanks

I think it would be unintuitive to play with different distance values for each zoom
10:19
If you aim far you can be more precise with your angle (for example of you zoom out really far you mouse diatance would be tiny and you wouldnt be able to aim at some degree values)

What is your question? xD You dont know how to do a specific part of a map or what?

Hmm… maybe I should try it. But for example when you have near infinite max mouse distance - diesn’t your crosshair get lost far away from your tee? Imagine you have to hook left quickly, but your cursor is very far on the right. I don’t have a high mouse sense, so I’d have to move my mouse physically really far left to move the crosshair left of my tee. Do you know what I mean?

I get your point and ye, it wouldnt work But I think in that case its better to set a small distance but constant for all zoom levels - basically you will always have the same level of control (+if you zoom in a lot your hook distance will take up the entire screen but i dont think you will often zoom like that)

You won’t have the same level. If you zoom out you have the same 360 degrees but more tiles, because the are smaller. I really like the option if having the same max mouse distance in the gameworld. So always 12.5 tiles. Then you can zoom out very much to check on your team mates without having to adjust hook behaviour. When for example waiting in a gores part.

Maybe an alternative is to adjust the mouse sense. Raise the mouse sense when zooming out.

@Gazebr is right (edited)

Sure basically it’s the same level, but the more you zoom out the more awkward it feels to me.

It's not basically the same level. It is literally (edited)
