Non-Passable Bounding Box Needed - 10/24/17 02:26
I am trying to make the bounding box (manually set collision hull) surrounding an NPC to not allow the player to enter the bounding box. I successfully created a bounding box, as I can tell by pressing the F11 key twice and seeing it. However, the player is continually able to pass into the NPC's bounding box when I do not want it to.
I thought I knew how to do this in the past, but it has been awhile since I have done it, and I forgot. I thought I did everything I needed to do to make the bounding box non-passable, as follows:
I tried setting c_setminmax() before manually creating the bounding box. I also set the push value of the NPC to the same push value as the player. The model of the NPC itself is creating collision (Un-passable), but not the bounding box surrounding the NPC. I tried getting rid of c_setminmax(), but the same thing happens.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated in helping me to make the collision hull un-passable. Thank you.

Code:

{
c_move(me, move_vec, vector(0, 0, my.GRAVITY_VAR),
USE_POLYGON | IGNORE_PASSABLE | IGNORE_PUSH | GLIDE);
}
action player_function()

player = me;
my.push = 10;
...
my.eflags |= FAT | NARROW;
...
c_setminmax(me);
set(my, POLYGON);
...
while (player_health > 0)
{
...
playerAdvance();
...
wait(1);
}

}
action villain_action()
{

villain = me;

}
void createVillain()
{
villain = ent_create("villain.mdl",
vector(-64,146,-111), villain_action );
...
c_setminmax(villain);
// set bounding box to individual values
vec_set(villain.min_x,vector(30,20,80));
vec_set(villain.max_x,vector(-20,-20,0));
}
function newGameButton()
{
...
level_load ("gameWorld.wmb");
...
hero = ent_create ( "player.mdl", vector(8,-606,-111),
player_function );
...
}
