People are putting Math in Fusionfall! (Mac´s Head Radius? Map distance?)

May i ask why are people trying to put Math into FusionFall???
Seriously: This is kinda ridiculous, but funny and pretty interesting at the same time. Lets see the 2 cases we got here.

Nano Mac´s Head Radius
It began with a thread named "Tbh theres really nothing to talk about". In the 1st post, one part said:
"Don’t try to argue my topic saying you can talk about the square radius of nano Mac’s head or something as outrageous as that"

And thus it began: A user named Owlquill made a threat just about that. And heres what it begins with:

"Upon Seijoh's "request", I am going to explain why we may never know the exact radius of Nano Mac's "square" head.

1. As the picture shows, we don't know the length of the square's sides to begin with. Knowing the length of one side of the square is vital to finding the radius. Who knows? In Fusionfall's universe-- how up-to-scale is everything to the real world?

2. Is Nano Mac's head EVEN square? Well, nobody knows! Even in the cartoon, his forehead-- and the sides of his head were practically completely covered by his hair. The hair hides is forehead and sides, but, if his head IS long/wide enough-- his head would be a square.


In the end it doesn't even matter we don't, and won't, ever know. Unless you could remove the hair from his model, but that is another story."

So yeah... This became a thing... A VERY interesting thing.

So people began to try to obtain it. I suggested to get a pixel measurement, where you count pixels to obtain a volume. People began to help as well, and as of now no one has obtained the answer.

You can go and put an answer or solution here: https://www.forums.fusionfalluniverse.com/index.php?topic=13299.0

The 2nd one actually has a solution! This is the past map distance! Pretty interesting, as some of the bigger math nerds of FFU joined to help out :P

Heres the answer from user Magtongen:

"So, each map square is 512 x 512. Imma say that mean that's 512 meters by 512
If each square is cut in half, the hypotenuse is 512radical2, so thus that's 2 radical 32 as the hypotenuse (It's been a couple months since i've done geometry), which is 128 meters.
128 x 8 (8 map squares)= 1,024 meters, or 1.024 km.
The map across is 1.024 km."

What a madman... Not even i can do that... HECK, im just learning Equations right now... Here ill leave one for you all :)

3X + 5Y = 7

2X + Y = -4

If anyone can solve it i love you :)

Anyways... Back to the Map distance: Another user, named RangerFusion, posted a more elaborate version:

"So in order to find the closest estimate I needed to get a base measurment for each square. I didn't know about the 512x512 measurement so I had to find another source. Our good friend Devan posted a video of him walking across the entire map for his 1000 subscriber special, so I took my information from there.

Doing some rough estimations I found that his character walked about 4 steps for every second (after the video sped up of course.) This is the base of the rest of my calculations.

Devan walked relatively straight across Eternal Vistas from 11:35 - 12:24 to 12:35 - 13:32 (with a break in between when he took a quick detour to kill Professor Plutonium before going back on track.) This leads to 106 seconds to walk across one block. 4 steps times 106 seconds makes 424 steps for each block.

Your line across the map starts from block 4,4 and ends at 12,11. The distance formula makes their distance from each other the square root of 113. The square root of 113 times 424 makes 4,528.44 steps across the map.

Now I could just turn this number into km and call it done BUT NO! I AM DEDICATED TO THIS! Besides, nobody has a set step size. I scoured the video for some correct measurements and found a tennis court! Why is this important? Because according to the International Tennis Federation a proper tennis court must be 76 by 27 feet in size. Devan walks across the short end of a court from 10:45 - 10:50 for 16 steps. 27 divided by 16 is 1.6875 feet for every step size, leading for a finaly of 7,641.7425 feet OR 2.32920311 KILOMETERS ACROSS THE MAP!

*Phew* With all do respect and honesty this an incredibly rough estimate with Devan walking in not so straight lines every now and then, so Magtongen is probably right but hey, who knows.

Final estimation if you didn't read it is 2.32920311 Kilometers. But that's just a theory. A GAME THEORY (im not sorry)"

Later on, Devan did confirm that each map square is 512 x 512. Not bad!

We need Game Theory on these. Anyone know how to contact him? lmao

Reminder: Tomorrow is the announcement that was going to happen a few days ago. This might change to another date however. Just keep an eye out tomorrow on the forums.

So what do you all think? Im personally impressed! Cant wait to see what other crazy and cool things the forums come up with.

Btw, im going to be more active on the forums, so if you wanna send me a message, you can do so here on my FFU profile: https://www.forums.fusionfalluniverse.com/index.php?action=profile
