Wildly inconsistent Units in one AutoCad doc. (Distances between parts change depending which object I measure to)
I have attached several screenshots below that show my issue. When I measure from point A to point B, the distance may be about 2, but if one of my lines attaches to a another object, even if the distance change insignificant, the distance would jump to over 60.
Can anyone explain why this is happening? If it helps to know-- the outer squared lines on the bottom left are a block that was made with different units. Regardless, I don't know I would have multiple units in one drawing.
Furthermore, my units are set to 1:1 on the bottom right of the page, when I zoom in or out, this ratio does not change.

PS: zooming in and out has no effect on "plot scale" in modelspace, that's not a thing in AutoCAD. Perhaps you've seen that in other programs? Or inside an unlocked viewport in a LAYOUT in AutoCAD?

@csalleyUW2RF I'm thinking your 2D drawing has some Z values in it and that what looks like a 2D drawing is actually in 3d; which would account for your inconsistent units. I suppose this is the case because your UCS is showing the Z value rather than just XY....
Turn your drawing 90 degrees using the view toolbar to see if this is the case.

If the Z is displayed, then you are not looking perpendicular to the XY plane.
