Sorry, slight amendment; your structure should in fact occupy the box{ <
0,-.5, 0>, < 1, 1, 1> }
Once scaled, your structure will occupy a box{ < 0, -ELEV/2, 0>, < XLEN,
ELEV, ZLEN> } The default plot size is 200x200 metres, so in this case
you should use XLEN=200, ZLEN=200. There is currently no procedure for
defining the maximum ELEV value to use, but try and keep it around 200
for now, mmmkay?

Other stuff; the PVC-II grid extends from <-2400, 0,-2400> to < 2400, 0,
2400>; you can request a specific co-ordinate when requesting your plot,
or you can take an assigned one. You can also request a plot size as
follows; f you don't request a size, you will be assigned a 200x200
plot. One POV = 1 metre

Assuming you request a plot @ (a,b) with size (w,h), your plot will be
the rectangle from (a,b) to (a+w, b+h) as shown. Please don't request
gigantic plots.
Also note that the area from (-10,-10) to (10,10) is Ground Zero; no
plots may overlap this area. Also note that plots inside the area from
(-200,-200) to (200,200) are reserved for the POV-Team, and may not be
taken by anyone else.
