You are.
....someone is not educated enough to know the imperial system correct.
Unity is dumb as a box of rocks, I am pretty sure that its 'feelings' are not hurt.
5 feet 12 which at least should be 5 foot 12 is just wrong to the max.
A discussion about the usage of 'feet' vs 'foot' would be interesting, but it really isn't pertinent to the discussion at hand here.
MAYBE it is meant to say something or just plain dumb.
Either way...the person incapable of the imperial measurement system was intelligent enough to create this game you were playing.
Alas, you seemed rather intent on charging forward on some righteous quest based on personal assumptions that I am somehow insulting the developer and you would be incorrect.
If you had actually taken the comment that I was replying to into consideration, you might have been able to deduce that I was laughing at a flaw in
Unity.
Here, allow me to try and explain it:
The poster that I was replying to had stated that, internally, the game is using metric and it is then being converted to feet and inches for display purposes.
Which led me to the conclusion that the Dev is using Metric for all of their measurements AND they are then telling Unity to convert those Metric measurements into Imperial measurements. You are aware that Unity can convert between metric and imperial?
I acknowledged that there is not a nice, neat conversion between the two systems and the discrepancies can cause some amusing (or hysterical, in my case) outputs when converting from Metric to Imperial.
In this specific case, the Developer likely set the height of a character to something like 180 or 182cm and then applied a command to tell Unity to convert it to Imperial, which output a number in the neighborhood of 71.65 inches, which Unity interpreted as 5' 11.65" then rounded up and declared that the person was 5ft 12in tall, it is likely just a mistake by the game engine that was applying rules to convert things and probably another one to round up (or round down) numbers to present whole numbers only.
