Finding entities within a certain distance of another

Geel9 · **Author**

I'm coding a plugin and I need to see if an entity is within a certain distance of another. The GetVectorDistance command spouts out a really high number that I'm sure is wrong. Is there an example for that? Or is it broken?

The_Distance = GetVectorDistance(First_Vector, Second_Vector, false);

Hammer units are very small.
They're roughly around 5 pixels/1Hu.

An estimate you can go by is that it is around 3000 Hu from one sniper deck to the other on 2Fort.

1 Hu ~= 1 inch. so a distance of 1200 is only 100 feet.
