Hi

I’m confused by the definition of Bounds.extents and Physics.BoxCast parameter named halfExtents.

Bounds.extents : The extents of the box. This is always half of the size.
Physics.BoxCast, param halfExtents : Half the size of the box in each dimension.

What I’ve usually seen is that extents is half a size.
But in case of Physics.BoxCast, the name halfExtents is confusing me. Shouldn’t it be named halfSize ? or just extents, like Bounds is doing to express half size ?

Thanks for your consideration.
Regards.

I’ll let the documentation team know about this post. Hard for me to work out if this is a docs team of R&D team problem.
