chaseOffsetFor

The chase offset for a hull of a given overall length.

The framing is a ratio, not a distance: what makes a chase view read is the hull filling roughly the same fraction of the frame regardless of whether it is six meters long or six hundred. 1.4 lengths behind and 0.28 above keeps the whole hull inside the default field of view with sky around it — slightly tighter than the debug cone's hand-tuned offset, because a big ship shot from 2.3 lengths reads as a photograph of a model rather than a ship you are flying.
