New page

==Doorways and windows ==

Doorways = 56 units wide/96 units high

For high traffic areas it is sometime best to make it a double door.

Double door = 128 units wide/96 units high

Window Height = 32 units from floor to the bottom of the window frame.

Window Frame = minimum of 46 units wide 72 units high. (Inside diameter)

== Stairways ==

Interior = 8 high / 10 deep 64 unit min. width

== Mantles (Climbing) ==

The tallest distance a player will climb automatically is 18 units. However, while 18 is the limit, stairs and curbs should be around 8 units high.

The highest a player can mantle ("climb") is eye level (approx. 64 units). Of course, if the player jumps, their eye level goes higher and they can climb higher things - but they player won't see the mantle icon if their eye isn't above the ledge.

== Hallways ==

Hallways = 489 units wide

== Walls ==

Building wall/One story high = 128 units high

Wall thickness = 8 units

Columns = 32-48 units wide

A 32 unit wide column is barely enough to still offer valid cover for the player. And after the column_cover node animations have been added 32-48 units will also provide valid cover and firing angles from both sides of the column for AI as well.

== Streets ==

Large - Four car width = 600 units

Small - Two Tank width = 300 units

Alleyway – small street = 300 units wide

== Sidewalk ==

Small = 128 units wide

Medium = 192 units wide

Large = 256 units wide (this is more for Singleplayer levels)

== Cover ==

Standing cover height = 48 units high

Crouching = 32 units

Prone cover height = 16 units high

Prone crawling height clearance = 32 units high

== Engagement ranges ==

These would be the range at which a firefight takes place. These ranges make sure the player is shooting at a target that is a good size to hit and interact with. This will help keep the levels from getting too big and having pixel shooting distances.

There is a model in the game called mw_scale_soldier. It has two rings around him, one at 600 and one at 1024. Based off of COD2’s weapons settings, 512 was a good distance to shoot an SMG at a target and 1024 was a good distance for a rifle. These can be adjusted if the new weapons get changed drastically. You can drop the model in your level to make sure your geo is not getting too big.

== Player Models ==

Standing = 72 units

Crouch = 36 units
