Distance display (bug or idea)

Post by Metsi »

Hey, i don't know if it's a bug or maybe it's on purpose.
I switched to the 0.0-0.5 distance display and now let's say 2 of my jumpers have 150.0m which is the longest jump.
But only one of the jumps is highlighted as the longest one.
Shouldn't they be both the longest ones? Since there is no further or closer one?
If it's on purpose, maybe you could think of changin it too?

I think the game is calculating with the cm lenghts. So if you jump a PB with 0,5m system you will also get a PB of 224,45m when the game shows 224,0m i think (or if it rounds up it shows 224,5m but you only get 224,45m as PB).

I know the game calculates cm, but if we decide to display 0.5 m distances, maybe they could be also highlighted as 0.5m distances ;)

I wanted to display the longest jump based on the centimeter value, so that people in the online game see the same longest jump even if they have different settings. Otherwise, somebody could be bragging that he/she had the longest jump even if it didn't actually happen.

It works the same way in the online game for consistency.
