pteras dont fit through door frames?
did i read this right?

i always used a ptera to get an argy to chase me into a cage made of door frames so i could just fly out the other side while the argy would get stuck inside

last i remember checking the patch notes they increased its capsule (hitbox) size so that its unable to fit into a doorframe, similar to how they fixed the T-Rex's where now they need a behemoth gate cause they no long fit through regular gateways

Was hoping S+ would have an answer to the Rex capsule size increase, the only thing stopping a Rex from visually fitting through a normal dino gate is the top beam which clips the Rexes head... I kinda feel like a behemoth gateway scaled down to the diminsions of a normal gateway(removing the top beam) would allow Rexes to visually fit through the gate without any issues.... and would keep those of us who built individual cages for our Rexes from needing to spawn in Tek forcefield walls just to keep our cages from being kinda useless xD

Edit: Speaking of weird capsules...... I'd love to see them fix the Gigas capsule which seems to be entirely in the hips and legs..... it's a little odd that a Giga literally has no front half as far as the game is concerned! LOL

No, it's a lot more than that.

Hmmmm... I kinda feel like perspective plays a big role here... it definitely looks too small from below... but not so much from straight on.

They didn't change their size at all. That is how big they have always been. They just adjusted their capsule or hitbox to fit their actual apparent size in game.

Perspective is a big part. And I think my perspective is much better. Yours if from above, mine is lower. But that is not why I think mine is better.

Mine is better because they are actually stuck in the gate on mine, your shot shows them farther away behind the gate making them look smaller. In my shot you can see that their hips are too wide to fit thru the gate. Also you can see that the top of the gate frame is actually in their hips because they are taller at the hips than the gate frame is.
