Some Ships Have Dimensions Set to 0

[alistair3149]

"sizes": {
  "length": 0,
  "beam": 0,
  "height": 0
},

There could be more ships with the same issue, but that's where we discovered it:

• Hawk
• Hurricane

That seems to be an issue with the 3.21 game files, all sizes are 0 in the json files: https://github.com/StarCitizenWiki/scunpacked-data/blob/9642bf2797f799ba0475c28c00a9b96a00340880/ships/anvl_hawk.json#L57

Looking through the source xml files, the bounding box size is set to 0 there aswell

Looking over all vehicles this affects exactly four ships:

• Aegis Javelin
• Anvil Hawk
• Anvil Hurricane
• Gatac Syulen

Argo Moth also has no game data dimensions set

Is there any update on this issue?

[octfx]

Not that I know of.

We could utilize https://starcitizen.tools/Star_Citizen_Wiki:SCWAPI/vehicles though to community maintain the dimensions for vehicles that miss them.

That page is read by https://github.com/[octfx/ScDataDumper](https://github.com/octfx/ScDataDumper) to override certain values

[Lucas-Gruber]

I think that would be a great solution. SC-Tools contains a lot of useful data that cannot be extracted directly from the game data.

For example:

• Ship trailers
• Ship presentation pages
• Ship brochures
• Dimensions for some ships, as you mentioned
• Ship announcement dates and Flight Ready patches

This could also be a good way to provide more information for concept ships, since that data is currently quite limited in the API.

I already requested some of this data in another issue (#196).

In my opinion, this would be a really great addition. I really like this API, and having all of this information available through a single API would make it even more useful.
