Anyone Know CS: GO units?

[Shpadee]

I know that a person is 72 units in the game, but is there any conversion to meters? I'm doing a physics project and this information is necessary for our analysis. Thanks!

     8  =   6"      =  152.40mm

Player Collision Hull

    32  =  2' 0"    width & length

    36  =  2' 3"    height crouching

    72  =  4' 6"    height standing

 

Player Eyelevel

    28  =  1' 9"    height crouching

    64  =  4' 0"    height standing

   128  =  8' 0"    normal corridor height

    64  =  4' 0"    normal corridor width

   108  =  6' 9"    normal door height

    48  =  3' 6"    normal door width

The "units" in CS:GO are hammer units. eg: Moving 250 u/s in a surf server (the default running speed) is 250 HAMMER units per second. Valve documented it here.

Thanks so much for your help!

I had the same question myself a while ago, the command "sv_showimpacts_penetration 1" shows you the distance at which you hit a surface with a weapon in meters, taking that and custom maps made in hammer and some extra calculations to make sure with coordinates on normal maps already in the game, I did some testing with how they display meters. When converting units to meters that way, it came out that 1 unit is actually 1 inch and not 0.75 inches, that would also make more sense, since 73 units of player height would be about 1.85 meters then and not 1.40 meters, as stated by them, which would be pretty small for a person.

It wouldn't matter since everything is scaled using the same unit. The people might be 1/4 shorter but so would everything else around them, to the player everything looks the same as it should.
