Default Re: Distance Increments?

The max the combat map can be set at is 5000 I believe. Now I took a ship of known speed (8km/s) and entered the combat area with another ship (in the simulator). I timed how long it took for the ship to travel from one side of the map to the other in a straight line. Yes I am nuts and yes I do have massive amounts of patience. It took20:97:655 but lets just say 20 minutes and 18 seconds or 1,218 seconds. Now using the old formula we get:

d=8*1218 which works out to 9,744 units. Far too short of a light second.

Did I do this right? Where is Fyron when you need him?
