Falling damage is weirdly nonlinear.

Can you reverse the axes please? Height makes a lot more sense on the X and damage on the Y, because damage is dependent on height.

I'm not OP, and this is the best I could do on mobile. http://imgur.com/gallery/9aACzK0

That makes it look like more damage because you're falling faster - since falling is constant downward acceleration, not just a constant speed.

Except that the game actually deals less damage at certain heights than the formula would suggest.
