Scale and Proportions
An important step, before blocking out a level, is to determine all the relevant measurements, document them, and later adjust them when necessary. This allows us to test and figure out proper values and helps to ensure that objects in the level have the right size from the beginning. In this step, I created a table that contains the proportions of all structural pieces that will be part of the bunker such as walls, pillars, trims, windows, stairs, etc. The table was created using various sources and recommendations (see sources 1, 2, 3 below).
