Ever scale a cube in Object Mode and wonder why the edges still say 2000mm in Edit Mode?

That’s because Blender keeps the original size and just multiplies it by the scale factor.

Quick fix: Ctrl + A → Apply Scale.

A flashy one looks cool… but slows the player down. 🎮⚡️
Good gameplay is about clarity + speed, not showing off.

Snapping in Blender doesn’t have to be guesswork. ⚡️

With G + Axis + B, you can snap to faces, edges, or vertices and align objects with millimeter precision. Perfect for clean modeling and faster workflows.

💡 Did you know?

Blender’s input fields are calculators: type 5+2, hit Enter, get 7. They’ll even convert 3′7″ to metric—no more head math.
