hello ,
is there a way yet to resize the game entities form within the editor ?
it would sure make the little we have a lot more versatile.

thx

there is 2 ways to do it that I know of but am not sure exactly the method.

you can add a line to the fpe or use a script with lua

adding a line to the fpe is faster but has drawbacks, it effects every model of that named type, ie combat soldier from the engine stock media would all be bigger not just 1 model..
making a script might be alittle slower if you don't know scripting, but only effects the models you add it to I think, but am not 100% certain on that myself as I have not tested it yet this way.

both ways are not exactly in editor, not like a gizmo would scale in live time. best we can do at moment though I think.

you can scale entities using the fpe make sure you have the following the scale is the one you change for size and it will effect only that model

;orientation
model = .X
offx = 0
offy = 0
offz = 0
rotx = 0
roty = 0
rotz = 0
scale = ?
