-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Well, there is UTIL_TraceEntity/AI_TraceEntity, which seems to be able to sweep an OBB. But I don't think the path finding code is set up to use it. Though of course I haven't read every file in the SDK and I was hoping there was some NPC/code path that overrides the TraceHull CAI_MoveProbe with a TraceEntity one. What I want seems possible but with no working example or advice I'm reluctant to start coding it in case it becomes too difficult/impossible.
