NPC Hull

Stub

This article or section is a stub. You can help by adding to it.

An NPC Hull roughly defines the space taken up by NPCs and players. They mainly affect what spaces something can move through.

This is a list of the NPC Hull types used for nodegraph calculations. They are (currently) listed in the sequence followed by the ai_next_hull command (see ai_show_connect).

Warning:I have included some empirical min pathway data, however it seems inconsistent with cpp 'specifications'... see talk page. --Beeswax

Note:info_node and info_node_link have spawnflags corresponding to each NPC Hull type; eg 2 : "Force small_centered permission" : 0 and 2 : "Force small_centered connect" : 0 respectively.

Note:The player's Hull and Viewpoint are defined by CViewVectors g_DefaultViewVectors in gamerules.cpp
