Some Interesting Information

• A CT or T model in CS:S is not 64 units high (as I read somewhere), but 78 units, which is far more believable. Since 78 units = 78 inches = 198,12 centimeters... But the Source engine allows players up to a maximum height of 72 units (73 is not passable (standing))
• The maximum slope a person can climb in Source is 45 degrees...
• A step of a stair can be at a maximum height of 18 units, since that's the maximum of a climbable or oversteppable box.

• Look! Even on the real WikiPedia there's a Half-Life page! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Half_life :P LOL!
