The hitbox is now cylindrical rather than a box, making it a constant size depending on the angle of the other player - before it used to be a larger hitbox when seen from the diagonals. I *think* that TankJR is the best model for filling it, but most people still use Keel imho.
ok thx for the answer.Originally Posted by Phlogiston
np, think there's a thread somewhere where someone actually did some graphics to illustrate the hitbox changes, if I find it I'll link it
EDIT: http://www.quakelive.com/forum/showt...-don-t-miss-it
2nd EDIT: I read through the thread a little -
Keel hitbox
TankJR hitbox
So TankJR fits better, but most posters complained about preferring Keel's footstep/pain sounds.

Keel fits the best per devs.

Some people aim better with TankJR as the enemy model. If you're one of them then go for it.
Aren't we supposed to be looking at the outer green cylinders to reflect the +10% size they added?
Which then shows Tank Jr as the better model
Have a nice FALL!

Why CTF4 is bad
Correct me if I'm wrong but I think Tank Jr is not good since it has negative hit box, meaning that even if you shoot part of its body it would not die. That's annoying specially for RG.
The only portions of Tank Jr that aren't in the hitbox are a tiny portion of his arms and legs
This does mean that you could get railthrus on people (and accurately think you did), but the majority of the railthrus are just bad aim.

This topic as discussed countless times before, always eludes the actual real question: Where to shoot to hit the enemy if my ping P, enemy ping E, and my movement speed Z, enemy movement speed Y, with X weapon and which height you're atm or the enemy, enemy/you jumping or not. Then consider speed of weapon firing, ie rockets travel speed, or if instant, the unlagged netcode, what's the margin for error with unstable ping. It's quite a few things to consider.
It is entirely pointless to discuss where to shoot to hit enemy that stands still.
