Structure Measurements?
I was wondering if any of you guys would know what the measurements in structures? For example how many meters, inches or centimeters is in a foundation, wall, ceiling or fence foundation? It’s only because I was thinking of trying to figure out a way to build the design of a base in a designing program but the only problem is not knowing what the measurements are for structures. I was also wondering if any of you guys know of any programs that would be good for something like that

assume all walls, foundations, or ceiling tiles are 1 by 1 and build it to scale

Think about the measure of a single bed every tier has almost the length of one... I assume in real world that foundations is something like 2x2m

That was asked 6 years ago, hope he found something since then.
Here to help because I'm deep diving into this question myself and have some (but not all) answers.

Ark uses the Unreal units for measurement which are centimeters. Any length measured without units or grabbed from game files is probably in centimeters.

The size of a foundation is 300cm by 300cm (a meter is roughly 3 feet 3.37 inches, so if you think in feet and inches that is 9 feet 10.11 inches)

I am still trying to figure out the height of a wall. the best answer I've found is that a metal wall is 191 cm unstacked, and 184 cm stacked, but this is from in-game measurements not looking at code or assets, so I don't trust it to not have methodology errors.

This thread was quite old before the recent post, so we're locking it to prevent confusion.
