 |

| Would it be possible to get grid size 1 in the editor in one of the future releases? |

Out of my head: using CTRL +/- also sets the gridsize and you should be able to set it to 1 using those shortcuts.  |

Oh by the way, could you build-in a lock that you can't scale an object to the width or length oder watever of 0 ? Because sometimes you just scale an object and then it's too thin and you can't rescale it.

Damn. Last night I was trying to convert my arena into Deled and I had to make up my own scaling system where 16 units meant 1 foot. It wasn't the easies thing in the world when you are making things that look bad out of scale.
It would be nice to be able to set the bigger grid lines to things like 10 and 12 and stuff. Being both a coder and an artist, I can see the reasons for keeping those multiple of 2 grid sizes, but that leads to so many problems when creating content and playing with the grid always having to guess how big something should be, and doing trial and error on object creation.
Something I noticed also, when you create a primitive with segments it would be nice to have a checkbox where the segments ignore the grid snapping settings. Sometimes you want your object to be on the grid, but not the segments, and it leads to odd results.
 Anyways, don't think I'm complaining. I loved this level editor since the second I installed it. I just think it has a few quirks to be worked out. |

Ok. Now I can start recreating my scene for the second time, 1 unit is an inch. I'm in scale, but it takes me an hour and a half to create a single cube now hehe.  |
