If I scale the TikZ picture environment, everything should scale by a factor of x correct?
If that is the case, why would some code not scale or scale incorrectly when it is in the environment?
For instance,
\begin{tikzpicture}[scale = 3]
code
\end{tikzpicture}
The reason I ask is some code that Qrrbrbirlbel helped with doesn't scale when I enter the scaled value as an environment option.
When I scale the picture, I receive the following error:
ERROR: Package pgf Error: No shape named F'-2 is known.

Without scaling:
With scaling:
Is there a way for me to scale this tikzpicture environment?
Edit 2:
Since I only produced a MWE, fixing the problem in code only created another unforeseen issue. Therefore, I have posted the whole code with the transform shape and the new issue it brought to the table.
From Peter's and Qrrbrbirlbel's suggestion, I was able to fix the scaling issue but a new problem cropped up (see the image below):
The 1 shouldn't be upside down, those nodes, and line shouldnt be in the location they show. Why would transform shape cause this issue?
I just read Andrew Stacey's post here How to scale a tikzpicture including texts?. He talks about transform shape will apply rotation to the node.
So I just tried adding:
\tikzset{global scale/.style={
scale=#1,
every node/.style={scale=#1}
}
}
the above code to the picture as Andrew suggested but nothing changed.
I am adding the code that isnt MWE because not having doesn't help here. This is because when I implemented one change, something else was affected. Therefore, the people helping don't know what else is going on in the code.

The reason is that theaCircleand thefCircledo not intersect (to check this, remove thepgfinterruptboundingbox(to see everything) and let TikZ draw the nodesaCircleandbCircle. If you addtransform shapeto the nodes they also will scale, though I don’t know whether this affects the node size correctly in regarding if theminimum size(which is set bycircle with radius). – Qrrbrbirlbel Jul 09 '13 at 21:58intersectionslibrary you might also simply usecirclepaths and not nodes (my fault). – Qrrbrbirlbel Jul 09 '13 at 22:06tlmgr info pgfv2.10 – texenthusiast Jul 10 '13 at 13:26
