A brush entity that allows the mapper to set a custom shape for the different collision hulls. The shape must be made of a single brush and must be tied with an origin brush to define the shape's center.
To use this you may either add zhlt_hull1, zhlt_hull2 and zhlt_hull3 keys whose values are the names of an info_hullshape for standing, big monster and crouching shapes respectively to any solid brush entity or func_detail, or set the defaulthulls key of the info_hullshapes accordingly to apply to all geometry by default.
1 Keyvalues
Name : targetname
Property used to identify entities.
Set as default shape : defaulthulls
Whether to use this shape as the default for hull calculations. The available options are:
- = No
- 2 = for hull 1 (standing player)
- 4 = for hull 2 (big monster, e.g. gargantua)
- 8 = for hull 3 (crouching player)
Disable this entity : disabled
Disable this entity.
2 Notes
- For reference, default hulls are cuboids of size
32x32x72units (hull1, standing),64x64x64units (hull2, big monster) and32x32x36units (hull3, crouching) with origin in the center. - Most of the time you will only need hull1 and hull3 as these are the collision hulls used by players (standing and crouching hulls respectively).
- This entity can be used to prevent the player from standing on top of slopes by giving the player a hull shape that is tapered or rounded at the bottom.
- The shape should be kept simple as complex shapes may drastically increase clipnodes used in the map.
