Deoxys Meteor discussion pt. 2

[StrymULTRA]

After this whole discussion, it was decided that Deoxys meteor would be calculated in the end with one of these 2 methods and choose one of them

• Method 1
• Method 2

Feat for who's interested

I’m good with either end.

The question though is which one is better.

 

[Antvasima]

Which calc group members have commented in the discussion or the blogs previously?

I contacted just Ugarik, since he's the one who pointed out the issue first, but there's also DemonMitch who commented there

 

[Antvasima]

Okay.

@Ugarik @DemonGodMitchAubin

Could you give some input here please?

 

[DemonGodMitchAubin]

At first glance, the high end of method 2 can be used

Method 1 doesn't need the curvature formula as the entire planet is visible. Curvature formula is only necessary when only a small part of the planet is visible. Just noting it down.

@StrymULTRA

You need to post the calculation methods in a blog post, so the calc group members can comment there. That is our standard procedure. Otherwise nothing that we decide here will be binding.

 

[KLOL506]

In any case I'd suggest going with Method 2. Method 1's wack.

1. DemonGodMitch already told that high end of Method 2 is fine
2. Done

EDIT: Nvm, DemonGod already commented there

Thank you. That can probably be used then, but I would prefer input from @Damage3245 and @Ugarik first.

Damage replied on the blog that the calc is mathematically fine and that it will depend upon which end the knowledgeable members want to go with for proper scaling, so basically this thread has been concluded as this thread is only for the calc aspect of the feat, not the scaling aspect.

The scaling aspect of the feat, and the end that will be chosen, is being discussed here.

 

[Antvasima]

Okay. Thank you. Should I close this thread then?

Yeah, sure.

 

[Antvasima]

Okay.
