I'm looking to design a new map. I've tinkered around before but haven't been able to get things the way I want them as far as size proportion goes. I'm a CAD designer so I understand the basics of how it works, but I was wondering if anyknow knows what the units in Hammer are equivelent to. For instance, in AutoCAD, 1 Unit = 1 Inch by default. Is this the case in Hammer as well???

Yes, one unit in HL2 is roughly an inch, according to Valve.

BTW in Hammer you must press [ a lot of times until the "Snap on Grid size:" or whatever says 1. Then zoom in and you can work inch-by-inch.
