Hitbox Dimensions

[agentronin 8]

I have seen that the hitbox height is roughly the same as its avatar's height. What is its width?

I read in a thread elsewhere the hitbox is not an accurate representation of the shape a weapon must hit to do meter damage. How closely does this shape conform to the avatar's shape?

I made measurements with conical prim objects. I aligned each of the cone's tips with the vertical hitbox lines on my avatar, and using position information from the Editor I used the Pythagorean Theorem to find the distance between the two prims.

I found the width and depth dimensions of the hitbox's two ends to be 0.6 meters.

Picture is not the normal me, but to make a point...

Developer Menu > Render Metadata > Avatar Hit Boxes shows the hitbox in purple. Three avatars:

Now, making a prim replica of the Horse's hitbox 

and turning back to Human

The Z will change in line with the height of your system body, just a little shorter. The X and Y remain as 0.6M and 0.44M

Add on a deforming mesh/bento or prim avatar as you see there, and they do not factor into the hit box size. The Z always comes from your system body.
