$hbox

Creates a hit box around a bone. These hitboxes are used by the AI for simple collisions, such as bullets.

Running studiomdl with the -h option will print out all of the autogenerated hitboxes.

If any hitboxes are defined this way, autohitbox generation is disabled.

Hitbox Groups

When a hitbox is added to a bone, it has an additional group parameter before the name of the bone which can change how the hit is calculated for damage. Many NPC as well as certain vehicles follow a scheme for each hitbox.
