Exactly how much more load does USE_HITBOXES put on the server, say for a 16 player with a similar amout of raycasts as counterstrike (for example)?
I've found it gives much more accurate reg on player's extremities, but i wonder at what cost? Would it be cheaper to make an exagerated bbox using USE_SPECIFIED_BOUNDS (considering all the extra ray casts that may collide)? On 1/11/07, Jay Stelly <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hitboxes are only tested when the ray/box trace intersects the surrounding bounds of the entity. For players the surrounding bounds are simply the collision hull in world space. In your case that won't work so you'll need to modify the surrounding bounds.
