Skyrim Mod:Mod File Format/COLL

< Mod / Skyrim: Skyrim Mod: File Formats: Mod File Format

COLL records are "collision layers". A collision layer is essentially an invisible box around/near NPCs/objects/camera, indicating different kinds of checks if they collide with other boxes.

If a box of type A collides with a box of type B, and the formid of A is in the CNAM field of type B then some kind of action is triggered.
