Are fades/onos hitboxes b0rked when they're up against a structure attacking it? I've noticed when a fade is hugging the cc in combat it's pretty hard to shoot him - the shots just go right though :/

    If the fade is crouched behind the CC you won't be able to hit him unless you shoot the lower half of him, even though you could probably see the head pop up over the CC.

    Really annoys me when a fade does this :|.

    th0r0n i think its the structures' hitboxes to blame actually <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
    Shooting a skulk clear as day and not getting one shot registered while he's behind the protolab is not much fun ....

    Note that you cant shoot through the gap in the CC too.

    Sooo many times do I see rines trying to shoot me through the Cc's hitbox as I am happily munching on it... <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Yeah, its great they made all the player hitboxes more accurate... but now it would be nice if they did the same to buildings.

    i have tested the skulk hitboxes.

    1vs1 with my friend.

    I was on top of the hive. He was facing me on the celing. I shot a whole pistol clip point blank inbetween his eyes, and he had no damage.

    The fade crouching is nasty... hitbox sort of shifts itself...

    same fun when they are behind the RT and you are blasting away doing nothing at all. You don't dare close the gap because thats when you end up dead!

    I tested crouching fades hitboxes a while back. You can see my results <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=63665' target='_blank'>here.</a> In sort, if a Fade crouches behind a building, you're not gona kill it from front on.

    I think theres something suspicious about the skulk hitbox. <!--emo&::asrifle::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/asrifle.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='asrifle.gif' /><!--endemo--> <!--emo&::asrifle::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/asrifle.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='asrifle.gif' /><!--endemo--> <!--emo&::skulk::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/skulk.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='skulk.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    If they do fix them... they should make the legs of the rts a little wider or something... it's handy being able to hide behind them while you munch.
