Hi everyone,

I keep getting inconsistent results when it comes to collisions in my 3D test game using the AppGameKit 2 engine. How come some 3D models end up 'floating', whereas others are not floating and seem to have an accurate collision hull / shape.

I've modelled a simple chair in MagicaVoxel ( this is basically a Minecraft-like tool for somewhat quick modelling ) and exported as an .obj file. The models are all at a 0 , 0 , 0 position exported, as I could confirm using Wings3D.

But... the collision box for physics that is created with Create3DPhysicsKinematicBody and it's DynamicBody version result in a floating chair. How can I fix this??

Can we somehow check what collision box was generated by AppGameKit ?? Apparently Debug3DPhysicsWorld() doesn't work yet.

An image that shows the issue... the code itself is really nothing more but loading the '.obj' files, adding a texture and setting up the physics using Create3DPhysicsDynamicBody.
Honestly, the physics and such all work fairly fine, however the model floats as if the collision hull does not matches the 3D model.

The chair object is loaded exactly the same way, with only change being it is not a StaticBody, but a DynamicBody...

If the "center" of an object is outside the shape then AppGameKit will include the "center" point in the collision shape

edit: Nevermind, I've found out what you meant. It's a bit weird it works like this though, but alas... Thank you!!
