Currently any sort of gather ability makes the unit's collision size disappear. Is there anyway to change it so the unit DOES have a collision size even when gathering resources?

Gather abilities don't completely remove collision, unless you have "Bypass Resource Queue" flagged on the ability, which allows two workers to harvest from the same resource at the same time. I do think Gather somehow makes collision more generous, though, because of issues that occur otherwise. I don't think there's a way to disable that. The best you could do is make a mock Gather ability using a Effect - Target ability, but that would be extremely complicated.

Thanks for the response folks, I've noticed specifically that the unit collision is off while the unit is gathering or returning cargo. When the unit is issued a "move" command however, collision behaves normally.

I am trying to have my gatherers (which are trucks, the "Crazyhorse" model) to have collision while they harvest because they look stupid passing through each other.

DrSuperEvil, I would be very interested in knowing how you were able to change the collision removal on the ability if you would be kind enough to share that :)

Interesting, far more complicated than I thought it would be actually. Thanks for your responses and insight! I`ll let you know if develop a temporary fix for this myself.

You may be able to do it with a weapon.
