CM Eye Mode Speed

[Killer91]

I was messing around offline today i wondered how fast you could go in CM Eye mode. I covered 25 1/2 sectors (or 512.5 miles) in 37 seconds (0.61 minutes).
take the distance (512.5 mi) divide by time (0.61 min) and you get 840 mph     Now thats moving!

Oh the boredom of a wednesday morning

37 seconds may well be 0.61 minutes but it's only 0.0103 hours

speed in mph is actually 512.5 / 0.0103 = 49,757 mph

I want orbital mechanics added to Aces High.  Now.

Which sounds more impressive:

840 miles per minute

or

49,757 miles per hour



1 mile per minute

or

60 miles per hour

What's more fun is going off the side of the map to the ghost world.

The AH world is flat I tell you, not round! Be careful, you can fall off the edge into the other arenas.

ummmmm.. ya what he said   and to think it was right there on the tip of my toung.

Ps. hitech your post just doest work right i know cuz i said so   j/k ... coad geeks and there fancy writing
