That sounds right. Use third person and the visualization code to check it:
thirdperson Ent_bbox player (this will show you the bbox/collision hull) Ent_absbox player (this will show you the surrounding bounds) Sv_showhitboxes 1 (this will visualize the hitboxes) Is the absbox correctly surrounding the hitboxes?
