I'm confused. I'd got the idea from [[CollisionProperty]] that the "Surrounding Bounds" (== "Bounding Box" == $bbox right?) enclosed all the collision geometry, including the collision hull (as in [[NPC Hull]] and [[Player Hull]]), hitboxes, etc and is used for a preliminary collision-test filter before testing against specific bits of the model? --[[User:Beeswax|Beeswax]] 16:31, 28 Apr 2008 (PDT) | I'm confused.

: A bounding box is a general term for the cubic dimensions of the entity extents. It can be used for multiple purposes, including collision and early-out trace testing. There's no contradiction. This command is used infrequently anyway. --[[User:JeffLane|JeffLane]] 18:14, 28 Apr 2008 (PDT) | |||
