Controller Shape Offset

[SpiderPig]

Now I think this is a bug...  the cylinder falls and lands half way up.  It moves around fine.  I get it there's an offset of 0.5 but in this case I do not know how to fix it.  Modify the vertices?  Will that update the collider model too?  What shape is the player controller?  Is it not using the collider of the model I set PHYSICS_PLAYER on?

    for (auto mesh : player->lods[0]->meshes)
    {
        mesh->Translate(0, 0.5, 0);
    }
    player->UpdateBounds();

Thanks.  Is the cylinder collider used as the controller's shape or is it something else that's currently invisible when debugging physics?

I guess the player collider is invisible. Well, it doesn't really use a regular collider, but I guess it would be nicer if it was shown anyways.

Yeah I just noticed things were colliding above my offset collider.  Would be nice to see it.
