round mist
I have a lot of questions about collision, mostly as it relates to debug menu in DS3. Just interested to learn. Specific questions so far:
See conversation below for more unanswered questions.
SOLVED:
||1. Why is the bonfire colored orange? ANSWER - Collision resulting from objects||
||Blue wireframe around character in picture is ragdoll collision.||
What are the blue wireframes around the player called? Collision box?
This node displays the current (collision box? hitbox?) the player is on. What is the proper terminology?
Collision (HIT INS) in Dark Souls, many questions.

Orange might just be how object collision is shown?
Low hit is more simple and used for simpler things, high hit is more detailed and used for more complex things. There are various reasons why things use one or the either and I don't know many details
blue wireframe is "ragdoll" collision which is also used for hurtboxes
collision is just called Hit in-data
round mist
Yeah I confirmed the orange being objects

collision is just called Hit in-data
Thanks this helps a lot
Do i call the collision boxes or just collision?
pulsar plank
depends on the collision
i just call map collision collision, and character collision ragdoll collision
round mist
Appreciated
Do you have an examples of what use low hit vs hight hit? even if its just one?
Any ideas on what this means? I'm not solid on the translations. In video below, 1st and second line correspond to 3/4, and 3rd line corresponds to 5
1 is just low hit, don't know how its differing from these other ones

i just call map collision `collision`, and character collision `ragdoll collisio...
So does that mean the blue is collision for the character when it ragdolls, while the orange is collision when it is not a ragdoll?
pulsar plank
no. as i said, ragdoll collision is used for hurtboxes
orange is probably collision with map during movement
maybe chr vs chr push collision too actually
round mist
Sorry, got it. Whats the chr push stuff you're talking about?
pulsar plank
what happens if you walk into another character
round mist
Got it got it makes sense
pulsar plank
(that type of collision can also use ragdoll collision though)
round mist
I got the orange box translated as "Proxy", does that sound right at all?
round mist
When you say that type of collision can use ragdoll collision, you mean like it can happen between the two ragdoll collision "boxes"?
Like blue interacting with blue?
pulsar plank
yes
round mist
Cool, makes sense. Never thought of it that way
This is all good stuff, really appreciate it

Low collision is what the character capsule collides with. High collision is used for stuff like Foot Ik.

Low collision is what the character capsule collides with. High collision is use...
Are you sure? I seemed to be finding the opposite
clear mango
Yes
Low collision is used for the actual collision with the character so the character can move smoothly
Like with stairs for instance
The steps in the high col only affect the IK while the low col is a ramp
The low col is also where the collision material is taken from
So presumably it’s also used for hitbox collision with the map
