Collision Shape 'Non Uniform Scale' what does this mean and how do I fix it?

AI_Messiah

So I have a Box Shape I set it's scale to be 2, .04, 2 and I get a warning about this next to the Collision Shape. How do I fix it?

Megalomaniak

Don't scale collision shapes. Adjust the shapes size property instead.

An extra point about the non-uniform scaling warning, double check you have your transforms uniform if you import meshes from any 3D software as it will also cause problems doing collision for the meshes.

I cannot find size in the Collision Shape

I'm getting the same warning for a SphereShape3D, but it does not have scale/size option in resource like BoxShape3D.

curVV Well it has radius. If you need elongated shape use capsule instead.

curVV

xyz radius scales it uniformly. Same with capsule.

xyz

curVV Capsule has height.

curVV

xyz It won't let me change height without it automatically updating radius... and I don't see a uniform setting for resource that I can disable..

curVV It won't let me change height without it automatically updating radius

Are you sure?

curVV

xyz Well it will let me until the height is equal to 2x the radius, which then make it a sphere. That makes sense, I guess, because after that it's not a capsule any longer. So, it seems it is just impossible to make an oblong shape using transforms from the resource.

I've used a cylinder now which comes closest. But not really what I want.

curVV You can use convex mesh shape if none of the procedural shapes fit your needs.
