I wish it were possible to enter the real sizes in the Z-Mod.
So that you also have the right size for a 1:1 map.

ZModeler does not use any units measurement, a value of 1.0 in ZModeler is 1.0 in game. The game's units scale could be different, I don't know what actual units the ETS/ATS uses. Most likely 1.0 is 1 meter, but I could be wrong.

SCS use Meter
If I could edit that it wouldn't be bad.
Because these are the original sizes that are in reality.

Thumbs up for measuring system. As a mechanical engineer can't do anything without measuring. For a good reference I prefer how AutoCAD 2d handles measuring system from most software, then Solidworks or CATIA V5 are also featuring powerful measuring solutions in 3d. Now in Zmodeler3 I'm counting grid squares and using TAB button to move back and forth to some degree of accuracy. Angles i kinda eyeball.

may you post a couple of screenshots from autocad, so I can see what exactly you find useful there in terms of measurement/distances/angles?
P.S. "Dimensions" entry is already made editable in new ZModeler. However, I can't give any time frame on release of 3.3 at the moment. May be in a couple of weeks or so.

Hey Oleg,
Sorry for late respond. Don't have an access to the AC software atm to be able to post. Best check some Youtube Video tutorials to see how it works.
