Okay,
I've looked but can't find the answers. Here is my question. I know I can set the grid like 64 x 64 and the like, but if I want to make a room that is 3 meters tall - how do I know that I'm getting the height to be what I want?
Is there a conversion process or a setting I should be looking at? |

A unit is a unit. It doesn't add up to anything, it's just a generic unit. 3 meters is whatever you want 3 meters to be. A lot of people don't bother modelling to scale, and just make it look good and close to the right size. |

Meaning that you could say, for example, that 30 grid quads is your 3 meters at a gridsize of 32. Or just use any other measurement you like. |
