prone crawling under gaps


(damocles) #1

Has anyone tested this yet - is it possible to crawl through small gaps when prone that you can’t when crouched?

I’m guessing it probably isn’t because of all the “issues” with prone collision boxes, but I was just curious.

If it is possible it would make for some cool secret areas/routes.

I’m pretty sure its possible. When I was testing out heights for a vent to crouch through, during one test I got stuck while crouching but could make it through prone.

I’ve got a staircase in my map and I just tried running into it from the other side, I get further by going prone than by crouching so the answer is yes.

The answer is indeed yes, but the difference is small. I found that the difference is around 8-12 units. You can get blocked by low ceilings that are visually quite a way above the model.

Alas, the difference isn’t really enough to be worth using specially. I was hoping to be able to make some proper low down vents or sewer grates.
