Units
 here is an ACCURATE scale to use when mapping, very useful

 

This helpful scale will help you to determine actual size of objects, walls, doors, players, etc for use in WorldCraft. This tutorial is more of a reference, but we don't have a reference section, so this is where we stuck it.

MAKE SURE YOUR GRID SIZE IS SET TO 16

Now below, you will see an image of the info_player_start entity in the WorldCraft editor. Each player in the game will be 72 units tall, regardless of how tall or short your model or custom models appear. A minimum of 72 units in height is required for the player to move through without having to duck, basically normal walking or running.

Size does matter !
Using simple math, you can figure out how large everything you create will be
relative to the size of your player. After all, accurately designing your map or
prefabs to fit in scale with your player is the ultimate goal for any mapper.
