drawing distance

hi,

i want to use really big moving objects. the problem is that the drawing distance is to small in the editor. how can i change it?

Select the camera in the hierarchy and change the far clip plane property to a large value.

I think the question is about the drawing distance in the scene view. It seems to be related to the last object you had selected; try selecting an object you can’t see (by clicking on it in the hierarchy list) and hitting “F” to focus on it. Also, try switching from orthogonal to perspective view and back; that’s worked for me a lot. Although there is eventually a finite limit; something like 50km?

What about zoom and panning rate? I have an enormous world with tiny buildings on it. I’d like to be able to zoom in and easily manipulate the people and furniture in the buildings, but whenever I try to zoom in that far the editor camera becomes way too sensitive. I’ve tried scaling everything up (what a pain), but it seems to be relative.

Again, select the object you want and hit “F” to focus on it. Then zooming etc. will be much better scaled to that object. (Yes, I was having the same problem until I discovered the focus thing…) Scaling everything is bad anyway because then the physics will be off.

You can hold down shift while moving in the scene view to move faster.
