About this mod Author’s original text
BetterDistanceEstimation
The game's built-in distance estimation visible on the power bar does not account for verticality. BetterDistanceEstimation does.
It's a small change: when the player and flag are at different heights, the height of the flag is used as the ground height for points that are closer to the flag than to the player.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- Most mods rely on the game's mod loader — the usual route is a community mod manager (such as r2modman): pick this game, install, and it handles the loader and dependencies.
- For a manual install, put the mod files into the matching Mod / plugins folder inside the game directory.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; mods with listed dependencies need those installed as well.
Install locations vary a lot between mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
