In Response To: On the Road Again... (PerseusSpartacus)

: Boy, the last real activity regarding PiD was back in September! This is
: totally unacceptable! To start up the PiD activity again, here's two
: questions which, if answered, might prove interestingly fun and useful,
: but which I cannot find any answers to: 1. How large is a given map
: sector in PiD, in real-world units? More specifically, what's the length
: of each of the sides of a sector, in real-world units? I'm guessing it'll
: be some number of meters, but you never can tell with sectors. ;)
: 2. How fast does our character move, in sectors-per-minute? From this and
: the first bit of information, I can figure out how fast our character
: moves in meters- or feet-per-minute.

: These could prove to be very interestingly useful pieces of information, in
: ways we never expected. If you've got an answer, I would be very grateful
: for it.

Hopper made a stab at answering your first question.

Some real world testing will help you answer your second question. Find a corridor x sectors in the length and time yourself going down it. For example, I believe the Labyrinth is always 30 sectors square. Sometimes you can get a straight run between ladders. Time how long it takes you to reach the next ladder.

Post your results.

Have fun. :)

Cheers
