Working on a plat that, on one of the sheets, has details. There are some details at 1" = 30', one at 1" = 20', and one at 1" = 10'.
Everything is drawn in model space, of course. I cannot seem to remember for the life of me, how to set up my LTSCALE and PSLTSCALE.

Running Carlson 2015, on AutoCAD.

I usually set my LTSCALE to 0.5 and my PSLTSCALE to 0.

PSLTSCALE set to "1" means PSLTSCALE is turned OFF. A "0" PSLTSCALE means PSLTSCALE is turned ON.

I think you have that backwards, but one or zero will will work and the other won't.

To have the viewport control the LTSCALE then PSLTSCALE needs to be set to 1 and TILEMODE need to be set to 0. Then the line type spacing is the same no matter what scale the viewport is at.

The PSLTSCALE system variable controls the linetype scaling of objects displayed in paper space
viewports.
0 = No special linetype scaling
1 = Viewport scaling governs linetype scaling

PSLTSCALE=0 (off)
LTSCALE= drawing scale (some prefer at half the dwg. scale)
TILEMODE=0 (always. otherwise Paper Space no workie)
