One of my objects is supposed to look at another object, but when I perform collision detection, it seems to disregard the rotation applied using LookAt. Instead, it defaults back to its original rotation. Why isn't it taking into account the rotation applied with LookAt?
Take a look at this comparison:

The blue object represents the default orientation, while the green one illustrates the blue object after applying LookAt.
Why isn't the collision detection affected by the changes made using LookAt?
The collision detection function I am using for my RTS game (which only considers X and Z coordinates) is as follows:
function collisionXZ(o1, o2) {
if (Math.abs(o1.position.x - o2.position.x) > (o1.geometry.parameters.width + o2.geometry.parameters.width) / 2)
return false;
if (Math.abs(o1.position.z - o2.position.z) > (o1.geometry.parameters.depth + o2.geometry.parameters.depth) / 2)
return false;
return true;
