i don't think the scale works like that. the scale depends entirely on whatever format the creator created in. what i do is:
Say i am doing a for arm and i want it to go from my elbow to my wrist. i take that measurement and convert it to mm (if needed). then i measure the length on the part from the elbow to the wrist. the solution will be in mm. now take the current scale, multiply is by your length and divide by the part length. the answer you get will be your new scale factor.
I've gotten a lot of questions about scaling. i haven't looked, but others say their isn't a good video or written scaling explanation. does anyone know of one? if not, i may try and make one this weekend.
ADD: Also, please note that many parts intend for there to be a gap between your head and the helmet (or other part), please account for this in your scaling.
Be mindful that simply changing the scale might not be enough. you may need to make the part longer or wider instead.
