Can't right click through Han's CC

[Tapothei]

There is an empty space around the CC which I can select but I'm trying to rally point the woman to behind it to make a farm which I can't seem to do. Unless I move my camera.

To illustrate how big it is, that I can't set a rally point behind the CC.

Suggestion: Reduce the hitbox to follow the blue line(red colour) which is on the surface or limit it until the blue or even yellow.

By the way you can display the bouding box.

Enable Cheats

ALT+D (Open developer overlay)

Bounding box overlay checkbox

I find it really convenient with the thumb buttons.

top down view ftw.

I think the engine only allows the bounding box to be prism.

Then I would like to request to shorten it, maybe about until 50-65% if possible.

I don't know much about modding, but if anyone can guide me how to change the boundary then I would be happy.

Happy to modify all CC so their hitbox is on the surface/bigger, and make people's life miserable muahahaha! (joke)

(You cannot change the <Square depth="35.0" width="43.0"/> though as it will mess up with the blue outline)

I'm on linux using flatpak, tried various things:
- Searched for the file, in which I needed permission to enter to the /var/
- Found the 3.6gb file in a /flatpak/, Decompress the zip file, edit the file, compress it 1.8gb = Missmatch compress = Error won't load 
- Made my own mod, following community mod = It doesn't register.
- Dismantle community mod, removing what I don't need and edit the zip file inside by overwriting without decompressing it = Works
So uh... it seems the height is not editable, its locked somewhat. Tried editing the house height too but it also doesn't work.
Other stuffs I can change like the name, resource, description even the border.

Here's the normal file, the height is set to 1, yet in game it doesn't register.
The name registers, Guan Zhu instead of Guan Shu.

Mmmh then it would seem I was wrong and it's using the 3D model ... Not sure what the height is for then...

Maybe this helps: https://gitea.wildfiregames.com/0ad/0ad/pulls/8181

Noice, I'll be sharing the files later. I'll be including all CC. Since I notice also some are not clickable.

It seems the height will be applied only after the code:

  <VisualActor>
   <SelectionShape>
      <Footprint/>
    </SelectionShape>
  </VisualActor>

This was supposed to happen with the <Height>8.0</Height> if the code was applied.

This is <Height>1.0</Height> which is my preference.

Thank you @phosityou are such a bro.

Edit:
- Done with the default, more info; Some of them don't state the height, Persians stays the same...(you can edit the height to 8)
- Next my preference. now its proper with similar height of 1, every CC.
Extra info:
Mod.js is inside the zip, if need to, just copy it outside together with the zip.
Removed cached.xmb, since no error occur in the better version, if it does there is a copy in the default version.
I'll come back and tweak the files at some point, by editing this thread.
If error occurs, I don't know bro, just ask this thread.
Good luck have fun amigos.
@Stan`request to also move this thread to Game Modification, thank you.

Ah right, forgot about that feature. Maybe we should warn when setting the height that it will be ignored.

I suppose I could write another Python script using the RL interface to find the templates that do it.

Hmm... now this is a problem, how do I play multiplayer with this...
Please this is a QOL type of mod... I don't like the way Han's CC blocks my right click... xd.
I'm so tired, anyways single player rejoice! Have a good day/night.
