Distance unit

The distance unit (DU) is a unit of distance measurement used internally by all games in the Splatoon series.

History
The distance unit has remained consistent between games. There are always 50 distance units between each distance line in the Shooting Range.

Example
The Bamboozler has a range stat of about 200 distance units. Since each distance line in the Shooting Range is 50 units and 200 divided by 50 is 4, a Bamboozler shot can damage Squid Bumpers in the Shooting Range up to four lines away.
