My ModelEngine model seems to have broken eyes, hitbox and shadow

[tidal eagle]

Hello,

Something's wrong with my spider. Her hitbox is on ground and should be a bit higher, she doesn't have eye level at all, there's no red lines, etc.
She also has pretty bad vision and can only detect me from about 10 blocks? And only when facing me. I guess it's related to her eye position being flushed with the floor.

For the eye-height move the pivot point of the hitbox bone up.

And the hitbox is on the ground cause that's how hitboxes work for mobs with gravity.

The thingy at the mob's head is the pivot point

the hitbox bone is not a child of the spider bone, is that fine?

The thing you see here is the bone's pivot

[maiden nimbus]

the hitbox being a root bone should be fine

What can I do to troubleshoot it? I'm so stuck :C

[maiden nimbus]

not sure
but in regards to "there's no red lines"
I think there might not be a red line cause it's not an actual entity.
It's a bunch of item displays and an interaction entity. I think they have no "eye" level and hence don't display anything.
(That or they still use invisible marker armorstands. Not sure if those show up for hitboxes 🤔 )

Either way, eye height is just there in ModelEngine to determine when it suffocates and what point to use for animations to look at something).

[tidal eagle]

Right, I'll check with other custom models if they have the red line, etc.
The mob seems to be working correctly apart of the fact that it's really blind... It can only detect me from like 10 blocks away - not a very respectable boss entity 💀
It's head works, he looks at me with his head and doesn't seem to ever suffocate

what's the FollowRange set to? (if not specified it should default to 32)

[tidal eagle]

I actually don't have FollowRange specified in Spider Queen's Mythic Mobs config. The thing is, the configs seem to be identical to other bosses that work correctly, and I have configured all of those bosses.

Here's 2 configs for comparison. Miner Wrath works correctly and won't let player cheese him, it will chase the player until it goes quite out of range, while the Spider Queen will literally allow you to shoot her from like 15 meters away and will not react.
