・ You can place them quickly by turning on the [Snap] and set value to [91].
・ Ground floor level is Z=0cm. 2nd floor’s Z value is 280 cm, 3rd floor’s Z value is 560 cm,… so you will need to enter the [Z] value in [Location] manually.
3. Specification
Structures of Outliner.
Element: Static Meshes. There are basic parts.
Unit: Unit-Base_BP Blueprint. Assembling elements to create floor, wall, ceiling.
FinishedRoom: Room-Base_BP Blueprint. Assembling unit to create room.
4. Dimensions, Units
All parts of [FinishedRooms] are made according to certain dimension rules.
A. Room object

・The floor height of the first floor is set with the Z coordinate = 0cm.
・The height of the first floor is 280cm. The floor height of the second floor is 280cm, the floor height of the third floor is 560cm, and so on.
