I’m trying to make a simple 3D maze out of boxes, but I’m having trouble keeping the player out of the boxes. I slightly modified the HelloCollisions tutorial code, and my code now looks like this:

If I set the extents on my BoxCollisionShape to be large (2 or so) then the player stays out of the boxes, but then they also can’t get into the maze! When I set the extents to something smaller like .5, then you can go right through all the boxes. Is there anyway to make it more “sensitive” so the extents can be small but still keep the player out of the boxes?
Thanks very much!
I guess theres something else wrong, try attachDebugShape(assetManager) to see the actual collision shapes.
