SetSolidFlags()

SetSolidFlags() defines various flags that affect the precise nature of an entity's solidity. It is used in conjunction with SetSolid().

Call IsSolidFlagSet() to test for existing flags.

Tip:An entity with SetSolidFlags(FSOLID_NOT_SOLID | FSOLID_TRIGGER) generates Touch() calls without colliding with other objects. This is the behaviour of triggers.

Flags

FSOLID_CUSTOMRAYTEST

Ignore solid type + always call into the entity for ray tests. ^[Todo]

FSOLID_CUSTOMBOXTEST

Ignore solid type + always call into the entity for swept box tests. ^[Todo]

FSOLID_NOT_SOLID

Allows entity to go non-solid without losing its underlying solid type.

Todo: Any different to SOLID_NONE?

FSOLID_TRIGGER

Touch() is triggered even if collisions are disabled.

FSOLID_NOT_STANDABLE

Players can't stand on this.

Todo: What happens when they try to?

FSOLID_VOLUME_CONTENTS

Contains a volumetric substance like water.

FSOLID_FORCE_WORLD_ALIGNED

Forces the collision rep to be world-aligned even if it's SOLID_BSP or SOLID_VPHYSICS. ^[Todo]

FSOLID_USE_TRIGGER_BOUNDS

Uses a special trigger bounds separate from the normal OBB. ^[Todo]

FSOLID_ROOT_PARENT_ALIGNED

Collisions are defined in the root parent's local coordinate space.

FSOLID_TRIGGER_TOUCH_DEBRIS

This FSOLID_TRIGGER entity will also Touch() debris objects.
