Talk:Oblivion Units
fMagicUnitsPerFoot
This game setting defaults to 22, not 21.3. The 21.3 seems pretty accurate from various testing, but it may be that the coordinate system and the magic system are out of sync... or, more likely, that the "feet" in spell area effects is actually not feet as normally defined. What do people think?

- That's a fairly small difference so I'd assume it's 22 instead of 21.3. Maybe Bethesda is including the Z-axis, so unless your target's origin is at the exact same height as you it'll always seem a little lower?--Haama 12:17, 30 April 2008 (EDT)
Category?
This needs a category (or several), but I'm not sure where to put it. It's potentially pretty important to just about anyone... --DragoonWraith 15:21, 22 May 2006 (EDT)
Fallen Ghost's Edit
Dragoon Wraith TALK 17:37, 30 June 2006 (EDT): Very good, that's probably a better way to figure out the ratio. But please, that was not a minor edit, don't mark such edits as minor in the future. A minor edit is a spelling or grammar fix, or a formatting change. Changing or adding to the information in an article are major changes.
- Uhm... he just added a ".3" to my "21" I think this can be considered minor ;)--JOG 03:26, 1 July 2006 (EDT)
- Dragoon Wraith TALK 13:21, 1 July 2006 (EDT): Oh, I hadn't realized that you'd added that bit about the exterior cells. My mistake, I thought that was him.

Units per Foot - Challenge of the 6 foot average height
I would argue that 22 units per foot (per the fMagicUnitsPerFoot setting) is just as valid a number as 21.3 when considering 128 units to represent the average height of a person. At 22 units per foot, 128 units converts to approximately 5 feet 9.6 inches. The average height of the adult male in Europe from the 10th c. through the 19th c. was around 5 feet 7 inches. Even by modern standards, if you look at average heights worldwide, 5 foot 9 is closer to a more realistic average. saebel (talk) 21:32, 30 November 2014 (EST)
