SetSolid() defines the manner in which this entity's QPhysics collisions are handled. SetSolidFlags() can be used to tweak behaviour further.
An entity's solid type has no effect whatsoever on VPhysics collisions.
Note:Behaviour can change subtly depending on whether the object is colliding or being collided with.SolidTypes
SOLID_NONE- The entity does not generate its own collisions. Depending on the MoveType, its origin may still collide with brushes but will
Touch()unreliably.
Tip:Use SetMoveType(MOVETYPE_NOCLIP)to completely disable all movement collision. SOLID_BSP- The entity has a brush model defined by the map. Does not collide with other
SOLID_BSPentities. SOLID_BBOX- The entity collides with an axis-aligned bounding box. Collides with everything. Required for hitbox tests.
- Use
UTIL_SetSize()to define the extents of the box.
Bug:Stop calling SetSize if the entity changes to another SolidType, or you will get a crash that disappears when a debugger is attached! [todo tested in ?] SOLID_OBBSOLID_OBB_YAW- The entity collides with an object-aligned bounding box.
OBB_YAWrestricts orientation to the Z-axis.UTIL_SetSize()can be used to define the box's extents. SOLID_CUSTOMTestCollision()is called every frame to handle collisions.Todo: Relationship withFSOLID_CUSTOMRAYTESTandFSOLID_CUSTOMBOXTEST?SOLID_VPHYSICS- Loads a collision mesh from the entity's model. This results in the same collision shape as VPhysics would have, without actually enabling VPhysics collisions or simulation.
