A few questions on RP Base rules

•The size of a shooting window cannot be a small crack; you need to be able to see all of the head.
Q: Is a 1x1x1 PHX Cube sized gap between two props considered a crack? My gaps are usually about 1.5 of those, so in reality its a 1.5x1.5x1.5 block(dont exsist) space. If you don't know how big that is, please spawn it in game before answering.

•Having unrealistic bases with unrealistic defense systems is not permitted. Heads do not magically stick through props. No hitbox glitching. Both raiders and defenders must be able to shoot the enemy in the exact same spot at all times.
Q: I never glitch out heads, Actually I build my defenses so that Neither party can shoot at heads. Though, what gets me is this part "Both raiders and defenders must be able to shoot the enemy in the exact same spot at all times.". Majority of my homes I set up so that their is a decent size hole to shoot threw, and I use nocolided props on my side of the entrance X distance from the hole so that I never have an advantage against a player on the other side. My only advantage is knowing where to aim, because I materialize my props so that its sort of a illusion. It can be hard to see the difference between thin air, and a prop. Of course unless you pull out your tool gun and see the grid, DOH. Anyways, he problem I have is that I might be shooting their hip, while they are shooting my shins or knee caps, depending on how much I'm moving around. I notice you care more about being able to shoot the head, while they can shoot your feet, or nothing. Would what I explained above be against the rule I stated?

If needed I'll upload a few screen shots to better explain my situation.

Hmm you do have a point. The only problem here is majority of all players have some type of nocolided "safe wall" somewhere in their base. Even admins/mods. It's tricky trying to pin point whats ok and whats not when somethings are unrealistic but ok, while others are not. This is something I feel should have more detail to keep away from mistaken rule breaking from misinterpretation of certain rules.

No form of no-collide entrance/safe wall is allowed. Simple as. However all the admins judge differently. I had admins their base removed quite some times by reporting them.

Sadly enough even the admins are often not aware of the rules.

Scottie, I have seen super admins use nocollide, If it's not allowed then why don't the Owners disable it? They disabled paint and Rope and other tools.

Because sometimes nocollide is used for purposes such as easier building etc.

I use nocolide in my base defence all the time. But, I allow people to shoot my whole body. I just have the advantage of cover.

Not allowed.

For the simple reason allot of people use it to just stick their gun through.it is easily abused. And against yhe rulrs.

I do not know what size it is in PHX/Construction props, but you should know how big a head is by looking at it. You could get a friend to help you to see if you can see the Whole head or not. Just use common sence ;)
