Is there a simple formula for doing this?
I either missed it, or have not yet come across it. Anyone know this?
I can get the calculation from Miles Per Hour (MPH) into Kilometer Per Hour (KPH) easily enough
I looked int he rules and there doesn't seem to be a math formula that applies to the way speed is assigned a MPH rating.
Spd = 1' per second
1 mile = 5280'
1 hr = 60*60 sec = 3600 sec
Now matching 1 spd to a MPH is of course gonna be messy.
1 spd = 0.6818 MPH (with that 18 repeating infinitely). The problem is, 5280 is divisible by 11, which does not divide cleanly.
However, 22 spd = 15 MPH (btw, this is also in the HU/Ninjas & Superspies super vehicle section in the speed charts)
11 spd = 7.5 MPH
Any Spd not divisible by 11, you'll need to either estimate, have a remainder, or a repeating decimal
