seeing entityradius, box

is there any way to retrieve and display the entitybox and entityradius that's been assigned to an object?

No, you have to record them when you set them if you want to retrieve the values used.

Take a million and one little particle decals,

fire them at your object from every concievable angle, with collision settings so they stop dead when they hit the bounding hitbox/radius

hmm that was just a joke, but there is potential wiothin the idea....

yeah well i fire bullets at it to see the outline of the box.

it sucks really.

i'll post a different question related to this in another thread.

actualy a good question...i have no idea about the answer but ..a good Question..

You could create a sphere or box the same size as the bounding box, set it's EntityAlpha value to something low and parent it to the entity.

Hi Folks,

I think someone has put up a code snippet for this - check the archives.

autobox? i found it didn't work. i'm not sure what it was confused by. i think if the origin wasn't in the middle because you used fitmesh or something, it got confused, but i haven't looked deeply into it.

The collision raduis is basically the same scale as the size of a sphere. So if the collision raduis is 1, create a sphere size 1, parent it and put it at the centre of your mesh.

That's by far the best way!
