    Making an RPG style game with the ability to cast range spells and use bows etc...

    Trying to figure out at what distance should my character be able to see another character in ideal conditions such as flat terrain, daytime, characters both human size (1.5-2m) etc...

    I want them to appear before they are in range of spells or bows but at the same time I don't want them to appear when 1km away.


    Thanks

    Thanks

    I will most likely go with something like that where I will take the spell or perhaps range item with the longest range and then add some extra range.
