func_* brush entities (except detail), seem to have strange hitboxes?

[v0idnull]

I am trying to make train tracks for my map and ran into a problem where track switches don't seem to align to the rest of the tracks. Visually they look fine, but whether I'm using func_door, func_movelinear, or other things, objects seem to slighty into the track, making everything out of whack.

I am considering using Propper to just turn everything into models and having the models attached to something and move around this way. Seems a lot more complicated but not sure what else I can do. Suggestions?

Physics on dynamic entities is different than on world geometry. If you don't want the effect you describe, you'll have to use model tracks.

that's fine. A little more work but once I create the prefabs I'm all good.

So now the question is: what is easier to accomplish to move a prop, a built in animation or turning it into a prop_dynamic and have it parented to brush entities that do move? Ultimately I want to take the gm_wirecontruct_rc way of doing things, having the tracks move up and down as

If I use built in animation, is this something I can code or does it really have to be created within some 3D modelling software like Blender?

As far as I know, you'd have to use func_tracktrain for this.
