Pondering Non-Axis-Aligned Entity Hitboxes

[Arathain]

What it would have to entail:

• Allowing for non-AABB collisions within MC (big fella, this one)
  • Either done via a workaround, or do some cursed magic with voxelshapes and pray it works
  • At least the math itself has plenty of previous material to draw on, I s'pose
• creating an EntityPart interface? class? that allows for full rotation (presumably via a single assigned quaternion, or potentially just pitch/yaw)

What might be worth considering:

• Joint parenting?
• Spheres?
• Non-cuboid collision shapes
• Extending to regular entity hitboxes?
• Separating/standardising hitboxes as target affectors/damageable/collidable/etc

In addendum - capsule colliders could work really well here, and be simpler to implement, even though it sounds really cursed within the confines of MC

This sounds really useful. For example, it would be really useful for turrets in Portal Cubed.
