How to calc this?

[ArgentDragonPluto]

So, let's say an anime shows you an attacks POV and it heading straight for the target. Is it possible to find the distance of the attack to its target using some POV or angle calc? Here is the example I'm talking about:

If there is a way to find the distance that would be great, since I'm pretty sure it's less than I'm currently using. (Over 1 meter)

id imagine there would be a way to do that but i wouldnt know how

Bump

do we know the speed of the attack? maybe you could just reverse engineer the speed formula by using speed and time to determine distance

Yes

Use Angsizing

It's lightning, so MHS+. She gets saved and I already know the distance the guy traveled to save her. I just want more accurate result for lightning to Julis distance

Use Angsizing

How to do that? And where is the formula for it? I keep hearing about the method but never find how people do it lol

isnt lightning only around mach 300? i realized i didnt know exactly how fast lightning is a few days ago so i looked it up and converted the number it gave me from mph to mach

Lightning is Mach 1282.798834 or Massively Hypersonic+

i thought what i got felt a bit too low, i wonder what i did wrong

Made this a month ago to help a friend. Hopefully it will help you too.

Hopefully, if I didn't **** up somewhere, is this correct?

Retinas size on average 12mm

Panel height (OP image) = 397px

Retina = 105px

2atan(tan(35)*(105/397)) = 0.249333 degrees

2.7576e+3 mm distance from POV to the retina? I have a hunch I did something HORRENDOUSLY wrong, but don't know where I went wrong lmao

 

[ArgentDragonPluto]

Okay, so since its 3:22 am, I will got to sleep. Hopefully after a good nights rest I will be able to figure out where I ****** up lol

 

[ArgentDragonPluto]

Ok, wait, before I went to sleep I decided to check out if the angular sizing formula is on VSBW and if there is in fact a guide. So, I found an alternative. Which is this:

• Distance from point of view to object = object size * panel height in pixels/[object height in pixels*2*tan(70deg/2)]

So, using that, this is how it looks: 12mm*397/(105*2*tan(70deg/2)) = 32.39856 mm

Would that work? IDK. Hopefully, it will.

All good but the angle portion.

"0.249333" is the answer in rad, but you have to convert that to degrees. 0.249333 rad = 14.2857118 degrees. Plugging into the calculator gives 47.879 mm.

Oh, I see. Thank you for the explanation.

Of course
