I know that the EDM exporter expects units to be in Metres but for some reason I need more more precision than 1 metre units as the System Unit when I'm drawing shapes. Example of this "precision problem" is not being able to draw small shapes? Still don't know why I can't draw small circles when the system Unit is 1 metre.

 

What is a best practice and a good solution for getting the required precision and also satisfying the unit size expected by the EDM exporter?

 

I am talking about cockpit and small vehicle size work.

In the exporter you have options to rescale the model.

 

Ie for my enforcer ship I export at 10:1 instead of 1:1.

The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

here is a screanshot of the exporter.

 

You can scale up and down the model, so you could have the scale up then export it down and visa versa.

Cool thanks for that Joey.

 

I really wanted to use 1 millimeter as my System Unit but it looks like using centimeters and a 100:1 export setting is what will work.
