This is very problematic. You could probably use another equation for rectangles, but what if you end up getting a trapezoid? You might as well just split them into triangles.

2) how can we check whether a point is inside a polygon ? I know about the mathematical fact that all egdes defines a 360 degree when inside, but, again looks heavy to compute
|
Generate a plane for the polygon and then check to see if it is in that plane. after that you can check to see if it is within the polygon.

3) as my utility is running as standalone, it does not have access to the HL engine :'( , hence the TraceHull function is not available :'( I used Botman TraceLine but how can we emulate the TraceHull ?
|
What does TraceHull do? I might be able to help you if I knew.

3.1) what are the 'sizes' of point_hull, head_hull, human_hull ? It looks like the shape of a human player when standing is 16x16x76 and when duckinc 16x16x36, is it correct ?
|
I believe it is 32x72x32, 72 units tall, 32 units wide, and 32 units deep.
Crouching it is 32x36x32.

3.2) how can we handle the de_aztec bridge, the utility cannot waypoint it probably because it cannot 'feel' the ground as the brigde has holes :'(
|
My guess is you would get a simulated person to walk across it and see if they could. Also, the bridge may have a clip brush in between. You could also just put a point on anything the bot can stand on and test if they can get across it.
