Hm, right, there are some trees that are particular large. Might reconsider if that is something to look into. In the first instance, I'd like to think that the player obstacle change that I outlined would make a positive impact to begin with, but it's something to consider.

Can we be blessed with knowing the layout of it?

It is, and no. I don't think the client has ever used the bounding-box info to begin with.
In case the client does not use that data: send it random garbage to fuck with the bots.

That would be quickly noticed and people would just go back to manually defining the hitboxes. Pathfinding is quite useful and not only for bots. I personally do it a lot in mines and even just walking around my village. I would imagine most public clients allow for this behavior by now.

Ironically, it would fuck with the public client users more than it would fuck with the private client users seeing as the private ones are more actively maintained at this point.

Ah, no, it is in fact not, but I always forget about it. It's usually Jorb who reminds me of things like that, so I completely blame him for my memory. :)

Nice patch.
0 content, 5 crashes?

We didn't even get easter eggs.......

I definitely hope that we get next patch sooner (like in few days) with some additional new hitboxes or anything really.
