LJ blocks with milli units

Hey, crazy(?) idea just visited my mind. I was sitting here bored thinking about what will be after new lj wr with 258 units(?) done, since 259 isn't pos, for now at least. The end of longjumping era? Shouldn't be!

So, the thing is to make blocks with milli units like 258.1; 258.2; 258.3 etc... I think you understand the idea.

So what do you think about it?


// I decided to start a thread in this forum cuz its more popular than longjumping one.

i dont think u can go under 1 unit :p i atleast dont know how

Well, making those blocks could be possible if you cut them diagonally, but it would be impossible to actually measure them. Atleast VHE's smallest unit is really one unit.

PS. Would fucking shoot myself if there was going to be 257.1 257.2 wrs and fucking updates about it.

ive also thought of this but like they say, i dont think its possible to make a block 250.1 for example, and LJ would be spammed SOOOO hard by noobs making a new video every 0.1 they jump, propably a bad idea ^^

BUT!
I think they should remake the LJTOP like the one KZSCA has, where you can see every posted record.

Would propably make the ljscene more living :)

Not really possible.

I think this is a bad idea
for example "New Longjump WR 258.2 by xxx"
six months later ""New Longjump WR 258.3 by xxx"
nobody will interest about it

first of all it isn't even possible to create blocks without "miliunits" because of some kind of invisible hull between blocks. just try measuring the distance by a plugin and you will see block length x = x-0.03125.

however miliunits is actually possible with a small trick. once i've found out that the player's collision model does not turn/has a static axis. somewhere the thread should still be on this forum, sadly without the the pictures explaining what it's all about :)

anyway, the formula for calculating the lj distance is sqroot((x1-x2)^2+(y1-y2)^2+(z1-z2)^2)+32 - the ordinary formula for the distance between two vectors but what does that "32" addition mean? it's the player's collision model which is about 32*32*72 ("about" because i think z actually was 72.03125 or something).

this means if the collision model does not turn as the player turns we need to adjust the 32 which becomes bigger as soon as the block is not rectangular to the x/y-grid in vhe (up to ~45,25 [sqroot(32^2+32^2)]). so all you need is to have eg. a 250units block in a 0° up to 45° angle to cover different miliunits of different blocks. but you would need to calculate a bit and get the angle somehow in vhe (i think there wasn't any information of that) since eg. 250units in 45° become 250-sqroot(32^2+32^2)-0.03125 units.

ps: i am not sure about the 0.03125 which can be more or less but i am sure that there is some offset. just measure a block and you will know the correct offset :)
