    Copy paste of a reddit comment I made the other day: "I opened up hammer and measured that soldier's shoulder to the center of his chest is 16 hammer units. The rocket moves at 1100 hammer units per second (68.75 feet per second or 46.875 mph). If we shoot an object exactly 1100 units away, it will take the original one second to get there. Knowing the distance between center and stock rocket firing location, we can use Pythagorean theorem to find the new adjusted distance. √((1100)² + (16)²) = 1100.12. If we divide the answer by 1100, we can find how many seconds it takes. 1100.12 / 1100 = 1.0001. Since TF2 server updates at 16 tick rate (one update every 0.0625 seconds), we can see the time difference isn't even registered in game, thus meaning original is not faster than stock."

      Speed is a rate. Since the rocket is traveling at a constant speed, any change in distance will be accompanied by a proportional change in time.
      As a simplified example, let’s say the rocket is traveling at 1 m/s. It takes 1 second to go 1 meter, 2 seconds to go 2 meters, etc.
      The rocket isn’t any faster if it goes 2 meters instead of 1, because the rate, 1 m/s, is the same.

  • @ex0_cs
    @ex0_cs 3 роки тому +14

    Hey! I might have a technical explanation for this;
    Video game engines usually run (at least) two different update routines during their lifetime, one of them being a fixed update and one of them being an update.
    I won't go into huge detail here, but fixed update is a loop which runs at a fixed time step (e.g. 50Hz) and is usually tied to the physics engine of the game.
    The other one, the normal, routine is run as much frequently as possible. This one is only limited by the hardware of your machine, but of course can be limited via vsync or maxfps commands.
    Physics is resolved in a fixed update, due to how it works. Most of the physical engines work in a way that each physical step, all of your physical objects are moved via their physical properties and only then collision is detected, resolved and corrected. If you made a projectile that would be very small and allow it to travel at high velocity, without having continuous detection for such rigidbody enabled, your collision might even be skipped, because it would just pass through objects easily and never get corrected properly.
    What this can mean in your case is that your renderer might show two different rockets at two different places, because we can approximate their position based on their current velocity and render them somewhere between now and next step, but your physical engine will resolve these two collisions within a single fixed update, because these projectiles travel too fast and their collision (and correction) occur within a single frame (single fixed update).
    So pure hypothesis: Assuming you could change your physical step from let's say 50Hz to hundred or thousand times more (5KHz?); besides the fact that your framerate would most likely die, because not much update calls could keep up with this amount of fixed steps; you might be able to reach such a small physical simulation step (e.g. if an object is moved at 1 unit/sec, in each step it would move only 0.0002 units) that should make it possible to register these hits in two separate fixed updates). :)
    Source: I work as a game programmer for 3 years, but you should be able to confirm these (I simplified a lot for the sake of general audience) by seeing topics such as:
    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physics_engine
    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_game_programming#Game_structure
    And so on. :)

    • @shittinator
      @shittinator Рік тому +1

      This is exactly what I was thinking. Clearly the rockets _are_ offset from each other in the Original's favor, but is there ever a circumstance where there is 1 tick of difference between the two, causing the Original to detonate 1 tick faster?
      The quickest way to get to the bottom of that would probably be to analyze the distance between the two spawn points on Soldier's model, then look at the speed of the rocket, and determine whether a hitbox at the spawnpoint of the Original's rocket would have any advantage at all over Stock. Since the offset gets less relevant the further out the model is, then if it's not relevant at all at even the most contrived example skewed in the Original's favor, it'll never be relevant in any other circumstance.
      But then things get dicey since the hitboxes in this game aren't points, they're usually large boxes. A hitbox right at the Original's spawnpoint, for almost all intents and purposes, can be thought of as eclipsing the Stock's spawn point as well. There very likely practically isn't a point of impact in the game where the Original has an edge.

      Yeah, most of the Source engine runs at a fixed timestep, with TF2 running at 66 steps per second.
      And I would hazard a guess and say that TF2 uses some form of continuous collision detection within the Havok physics engine, because otherwise fast projectiles like the Huntsman arrow would pass through things like walls.
      Maybe there's a case where a small enough timestep could highlight the distance between the Original and stock, but given how the rockets move the same speed, hit the same target, and are an insignificant distance apart, it would make the server unusable in any real world situation (especially now with 100 player servers lol)

      This would mean to reach the target at the same time, the Stock’s rockets would actually have to travel slightly faster, giving it an advantage over the Original at a long enough distance.

      That would theoretically give the Stock an advantage over the Original. At least, at very long ranges.

Or they thought it would be balanced since it’s harder to hit enemies at long distances since they can see the rocket coming and move.

    There's a better way to figure it out
    You just have to create a new map, at which 2 bots are spawning in DIFFERENT locations. Both bots have a wall in front of them, around 500-1000 hammer units away. Each wall (if being more certain, func_button, not a wall) has output, that deletes second wall, so second rocket can't hit it. That means that if original's rocket hits first wall, stock rocket launcher's wall will disappear, and stock rocket will continue to fly.
    Btw, the bigger distance between each wall and bot, the better results will be received!

      But unless the diagonal line started at a spot slightly closer to the target, it would have to travel farther to reach the target. Maybe we could check to see where the rockets spawn?
      Between the Original and the stock, does the stock perhaps spawn the rocket to the side, and slightly forward?

    If we turn this into a two-dimensional physics problem: say that the rocket's velocity from the soldier is the x-velocity.
    On both rocket launchers, the x-velocity is the same. However, the y-velocity is different. So the rockets have the same x-travel time, but the stock launcher also travels in the y-direction.

    • @SkyraM
      @SkyraM 5 років тому +2

      @august elmelund nielsen made sense for my brain, but if it doesnt work for you, just think about it as if both rockets are 2 balls in a pipe. You can lift the pipe around and carry it in a straight line (the direction toward the target that the rockets are traveling in), and the balls can move around sideways in the pipe at the same time. The speed the pipe is going towards the target is the same, but the balls might move at different speeds sideways in the pipe.
      Ultimately the stock rocket might be traveling at a higher magnitude speed, but in the direction of intended travel, both travel the same speed. Which means it might be worth testing if you can hit closer targets faster with the stock rocket launcher before the paths merge by aiming slightly off centre?

    We'd have to dive into the source spaghetti to learn more about how it deals with two-rockets-one-target-one-tick conflict resolution. I really like the Discovery involving first and last people joined with first and people last players joined (playerEnt spawned?) because that makes sense.
    Perhaps it has something to do with the rocket splash damage routine? Though, you'd think it to share the grenade launcher's explosion code. Maybe not though. 🍝

    Tf2's hit reg is...odd to say the least. The issue you were running into with the rockets exploding on one of the soldiers is something that happens quiet often in normal gameplay with all projectiles. Rockets blow up on contact with an entity even if they're on your team, this happens with most of the games projectiles such as the sniper's jarate. Melee hits also suffer from this. Anywho this was an informative vid and it does bring up a great question as the original should have a faster rocket.

    I've always wondered about this. Does the stock RL's trajectory ever fully intersect the 'crosshair line'? If you had a map that was just a maximally vast box and aimed your stock crosshair at a target that was miles away, would it eventually hit that wall, but to the left of the crosshair (because it had enough time to intersect with your crosshair line and move to the other side of it)?
    OR -
    Does the stock RL not really shoot in straight lines? Maybe they kind of 'cheat' it and while it starts out from the right side of your crosshair line, it actually curves until it is eventually in line with the crosshair?

    • @b-chroniumproductions3177
      @b-chroniumproductions3177 4 роки тому

  • @Bluhmann
    @Bluhmann 4 роки тому

    I actually think that rocket speed between Original and Stock are _practically_ equal. There might be something about rocket speed that calculates how fast rockets should move based on triangulation between three points:
    1. Point where the soldier is aiming
    2. The origin of the soldier
    3. The origin of where the rocket is generated (what differs between Original and Stock).
    The time it takes for a rocket to hit a target is chiefly determined by points 1 and 2, but then the third point of this triangle, where the rocket is generated from, is accounted for to adjust the projectile's speed. This likely has always been a function that Valve could use for their weapon's aiming systems (and in fact probably even just the function used to generate hitscan ray-traces), because of just how often it is to have weapons fire from a view model that isn't perfectly centered on the player's screen.
    In other words, Stock rockets are ever so slightly faster, but they're always _precisely_ the degree faster required to hit the target (or a solid map object) at the same time as the Original. And really looking at the footage around 3:55, that kind of checks out when considering the two rockets both move from left to right at the same speed, and then, when detonating at extremely low engine speed, apparently despawn at the exact same time.
    That then makes me wonder exactly how close a target would need to be in order to produce appreciable difference in rocket speed if that all were the case...

    I'm pretty sure that the distance of difference is so small that the target's breathing idle animation impacts on whichever rocket touches it first.
    To visualize this: close up, slow motion, unhide hitboxes and watch how the target's arm moves forward when exhaling and inwards when breathing in. So when the diagonal rocket is fired at a certain time it will collide with the forward arm first despite the original having arrived at the scene first but missing the arm and instead going for the chest that is still further ahead.

    The video basically asked the question which rocket hits the target faster not which rocket flies faster.
    The reason you didn't find the answer is that when you increase the target distance you also decrease the difference between the original rocket and the rocket launcher rocket, making them more likely to hit the target at the same time.
    The closer the target, the more likely the original will kill the target, but only if the soldiers are looking the same direction. This though, is only when the rocket launcher always shoots straight to the crosshair.
    Could you look more into how the rocket launcher shoots at the crosshair at different distances?

    Adjusting the host_timescale doesn't make the step size smaller, so the rockets appear to explode simultaneously because the difference between them was far less than a tick.
