add collision meshes to player models, so people can stop walking through eachother?


Just wondering :

in the future please use proper titles for topics and not generic titles like you have, there is a rule against it in the forum rules and a moderator will most likley give you an infraction, let alone most devs wont bother opening a topic with a title like this, I normally dont.

but to answer your question, players already have collision meshes and they are not walked though... if players had no col meshes, you wouldn't be able to shoot them, you wouldn't be able to run them over, you would be able to walk though buildings, tanks, etc and players wouldn't be able to push you off the side of a ledge

well that's because you push the other player out of the way slightly and the door way is quite wide, normally about 0.7m wide where a player is .5m wide.

If you go onto my Container Handling crane (the big yellow one in muttrah over the container blocks) and climb up to the top, the walk ways are only .5m wide and as such, if you get 2 players going in either direction, they can't pass each other if they walk into each other as they fully block the way and there is no where to push them to the side, only way to get round is one go prone and the other jumps over, or you go back to a bit where you can pass, or pass on a ladder

You want collision meshes to prohibit pushing people out of the way so you can block doorways so your teammates can't get out?
Sounds like a great idea.. /sarcasm

The current system is quite good, actually. You can push people out of the way if they're blocking a doorway, you even take damage when running into someone at full speed - much better than simply having a collision box that blocks everything.

Locking at OP's request. Also, consider this a warning to use better titles in the future.
