Editor precision

[sergey.pozhidaev]

hi, i am want to set node scale (0.00001), Editor can not set this value manually, if i set it from script, editor show 0.0000

there is many things like this in editor (camera step, minimum 0.01)

 

please dispatch this

Hi Sergey,

 

Thank you for the suggestion. I've added it to our internal TODO list (right now it has low priority).

 

Btw, could you please tell us what kind of content are you using if you neede to scale nodes down to 0.00001?

 

Thanks!

Maybe you should have immediately noted that such vertex scaling might quickly cause float precision issues when applied to node meshes.

 

Even though node scaling sometimes seems convenient people often forget that this will cause issues for the physics simulation as non-1 scaling is not support for associated bodies

 

I think in general it is a good advice to avoid node scaling (especially if it is just used for compensation of non-matching modelling tool coordinate unit ranges)

it is needed for Global Space System simulations, i am using Unigine physics on 0.001 scale (max 0.0002) (0.0001 - troubles)

and if i am make body from scaled objects its bodies different from original mesh
