Realistically I don't need multiple skin sets for editing CTF/CTF4 maps, but I'm a skinner so variety often tends to be a given.

There's something about U1 and ut99 that doesn't quite line up right. This is why Unreal monsters often appear to be standing a little further over the edge than any Unreal Tournament players can but without falling.

UTDMW are basically bots in the forms of monsters, but they're still U1 monsters where it counts.

This can work out well strategically sometimes...

...because you can catch them unawares and shoot them from below if you time it right.

Hitbox ...and no they are not bots.

They're bot-like.

As papercoffee says, it's to do with the collision cylinder. As a matter of interest, the collision radius of the UTDMWarlord is 52, whilst that of a TMale1Bot is 17.

I'm more amused by this than anything else, but I was skimming a UT facebook book group and I saw this new MonsterHunt map someone is making (looks really good) and he's got a Warlord on the map with, as he puts it, a "cool new green suit he made himself".

It's that green one there I made in 2019. Find it kinda flattering, my skinning is good enough that others are claiming my stuff as something they made themselves; actually not the first time I've seen something like this.

Moreso as I only team colored someone else's existing Warlord skin... so technically that other guy is ripping us both off.
