Tested Maximum Shot Distances
Now that the Playground LTM is back in the game I hopped in on 2 accounts and did some testing. Here's what I found for longest possible shots with each weapon type (didn't test RPG):
- All Snipers: 487m
- All Shotguns: 41m (Shots do 1-3 damage each)
- Pickaxe: 3m
- Everything Else: 275m
And some other things I found
- Each floor tile is 5m long
- Furthest you can throw C4: 30m (on flat ground)
- C4 Player-Damage Radius: 3.75m (Approx.)
- C4 Structure Damage Radius: 10m each direction
- Each player can only have 31 C4's placed at a time (they'll start despawning after that)
- Player render distance cuts off at around 300m (it's infinite in Playground mode)
- Bullets despawn after their respective distances but the tracers will still show
EDIT: After reading all the comments about moving back after shooting and such I will re-test it later today. However, even if you move back the shot is technically still the same distance since the bullet travelled the same distance but I'll try it out anyways. For anyone saying that elevation makes a difference, I did try both shooting off of a mountain and on flat ground but I will try again when I test again. I will also test if console vs. PC makes any difference. Thanks for all of your input
