About

ChangeSize scales your player character's model up or down without affecting collision, movement speed, or stats. Pass a decimal multiplier: 0.5 shrinks you to half size, 2.0 doubles you, 1.0 restores normal scale.

This is useful for testing how larger or smaller player models interact with structures, doorways, and animations on your server. The command is cheat-enabled and works in console on all platforms.
