*Decompiling the Sim: CurrentSpeed

Thanks for the feedback, everyone! Glad you are enjoying the posts.


I have only found one explicit mention to the LB/DB positions related to gameplay in the code so far, and it is related to FS. In calculating whether or not a player is close enough to possibly intercepting a pass, the sim calculates the distance between the intended target and the defending player. The FS position has an 'interception radius' that is 2.5 times larger than any other player. All other defenders have the same radius.

Ever seen what happens when you put a FS on the D Line? It's fun.
