# scale {get;set}

```lua
return function()
    local user = getUser('clonzeh');
    if user == nil then
        log('user does not exist!');
        return;
    end
    
    user.scale = 2; --the same as runCommand('!scale ' .. user.id .. ' 2 60');
    
    local getScaleValue = user.scale; 
    log(getScaleValue); --prints 2

    --note this only refers to command_scale!
    
    --state_scale is set by a state the avatar is running
    --global_scale is set by the scale slider in quickaccess for all avatars
    --command_scale is set by the command_scale!

    --there is a 4th scale parameter which overrides all of these when set.
end
