    Build: v1.7 3632 (all builds for as long as I have been playing)
    Mode: Survival
    Mode: Any

    SERVER NAME: Any / N.a
    SEED-ID: not available.

    If applicable:
    MODIFIED PLAYFIELDS: Yes - Vanilla, Reforged Galaxy, Reforged Eden, and probably others.

    Reproducibility: Always
    Severity: Minor ... Breaks immersion.

    Type: Bug.

    Summary: Entities can occupy the same space (Was: Fourarms wants a hug)

    Description:
    Examples:
    1. NPCs can walk right through each another (rude)
    2. Player can walk through NPCs. (disconcerting)
    3. Player can walk through downed drones. (immersion breaking)
    4. Etc.

    Long story short: They appear solid but they aren't.



    Notes:
    Screenshot of an example here: https://empyriononline.com/threads/fourarms-wants-a-hug.99292/

    P.S I can't remember what POI that was. It was in an R.E game so may not be a vanilla POI.

    P.P.S I think I've seen cases where players can walk through one another too.

    P.P.P.S I've also seen that Enemies can "partially" clip through walls. For eg the fact that an overseer doesn't fit through a passage doesn't stop it from walking down the passage. It's head is just in the ceiling, no problem.

    Dead entities can FULLY clip through walls and terrain, making them impossible to loot unless you (a) use godmode or (b) remove the terrain or blocks.

    Also: blocks merge with terrain rather than replacing it. We're told it's a feature....
