The distance math

March time in Kingshot is driven by straight-line distance: this tool takes two coordinate pairs, computes the Euclidean distance in tiles, and converts it to time using the community-observed baseline of roughly 6 seconds per tile at 100% march speed, scaled by whatever march-speed percentage you enter. The 6-second baseline is an approximation — different march types and buffs shift it — so treat results as planning estimates rather than stopwatch guarantees, and calibrate against one real march on your own account for precision.

Using it in anger

  • Rally coordination lives and dies on arrival order — combine the march time here with rally-timer math in the Rally Planner so joiners actually land inside the window.
  • March speed bonuses are multiplicative on time saved: at 150% speed a 10-minute march becomes under 7 minutes, which is frequently the difference between reinforcing a garrison and reading its funeral report.

How the map planner calculator works

Turns two sets of map coordinates into a march time, adjusted for your march speed bonus.

Distance between the tiles
var distance = Math.sqrt(dx*dx + dy*dy); — Straight-line distance on the coordinate grid — the game does not march around obstacles.
Base march time
var baseMarchSec = Math.round(distance * 6); — Six seconds per tile at 100% speed. The code comment says so: ~6 sec per tile at 100% speed.
Your actual time
var actualMarchSec = Math.round(baseMarchSec * (100 / speed)); — March speed divides the time — 200% speed halves it.

The six-seconds-per-tile figure is the one assumption in this calculator, and it is approximate; the code marks it with a tilde. Everything else is arithmetic on your own numbers. If your marches consistently come in faster or slower, that constant is the thing to doubt.
