Hey,
I ran into the same problem with the setBounds() method - that it
seemed to not actually set them. But if you are just using the bounds for
collision detection the setCollisionBounds() method appears to do what you
want. For example:
shape.setCollisionBounds(new BoundingBox(new Point3d(-.25, -1, -.5),
new Point3d(.25, 1, .5)));
would actually give you an AABB for shape's collision bounds. I'm not
sure why the normal setBounds() doesn't seem to work.
Maybe that helps,
Bobby
