-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] I think you're only solution is to cheat and make the bounding box small (so he can walk thru the hallway) BUT you can make it so that you can still shoot him by adding this line of code to the :Spawn function
CollisionProp()->SetSurroundingBoundsType( USE_HITBOXES ); It basically makes it so that any raytraces will take into account the actual hitboxes of the character model (even if those hitboxes are outside of the Bounding Box). I've tested it and it works quite well. I use it for my players when they are leaning left/right out of their BBOX.
