Question on collision domains

Post by Jar B »

Even'in guys, does anyone know how to get infos on collision domains? I've found a column in the BodyData indicating that there might be different preselectable shapes of collision bubbles.

I wonder how these shapes look like? What's their size and configuration? Are the scene files related to them?

I've found a script command, too, that gives me a size (get size of object). Is that the mere size/diameter of the model at its thickest spot? Or does it include the object's collision domain?

For those who might ask: WTF why?
Well. I'm one of the curious kind ;) I want to see if I can calculate the free configuration space within X. It can be done in decent time if you know the faces of every collision domain.

You could try asking Alkeena, the author of this: http://forum.egosoft.com/viewtopic.php?t=258948

Thanks. Did that already but then thought it over and put my question in a more prominent location. It's not exactly related to Alkeena's mod.

I suppose I need to figure this out the hard way :|
