I keep seeing different answers so I was hoping someone could give me a definate answer.
I am working on a objective system and I would like to place a widget that tracks the player position to the objective in meters. I am using the “get distance node” then dividing by 52.5 and rounding the result because I found that 1 UU = 52.5 Meters.
Is this correct?
1uu = 1cm in Unreal.
TheAgent is correct.
I keep hearing that but when you are converting inches to CM. it just doesn’t feel right when you are playing through what you have built… I always end up having to go with 1.5uu = 1 cm
There are other things that play into “feelings” when it comes to translating real world coordinates to virtual worlds. Most of all this is the position and FOV of the camera you’re using. You should play around with the FOV a bit, it helps. But a static mesh in a first person view versus a 3rd person view also tend to have a difference in looks, because your perspective has been warped. So while 1uu = 1cm, you’re still going to need to apply some camera/artistic work to make it “feel” right sometimes.
