What I still need in my game is a good ladder code, I've seen some topics about it, but none of them had a good ladder code.
So I wondered if someone had made a good ladder code yet and want to give it to me and other people who need it.

Haven't made one yet, but I had the idea that you could use the trace() function to scan the texture, so if there is a block close in front of you with a texture name beginning "ladder" then you will move up and down instead of forwards and backwards... It's how they do it in Deus Ex, among others. Sorry, that's not an awful lot of help as it will be a while before I try to get it working...

Thats how I am planning to do my ladders. Also I am going to do that to make climb-able wall moss.

Ambit:

Sounds like a good idea!

We'll have some ladder code in AUM3 (in about a week).

I'm really looking forward for AUM3, thanks George.

The code works for ropes, too - in fact, I've tested it with a rope

WOW again!

george thats cool thanks for your hard work,Mbee looks like were gonna get another
nugget!! a golden wdl snippet YAAAAAH.

Thanks for the ladder code George, but I can't get it working. This is what I have done:

- put your code into mine including this:

code:

---

var gravity_temp;
var rope_speed_up = 1;
var rope_speed_down = 1;

---

- put a map entity into my level and gave it action rope
- made skill1 100

Now I get a dangerous event warning and after that a wdl crash.
So I changed the following:

code:

---

if (key_w == 1 && my.z + (my.max_z - my.min_z) / 2 > player.z - (player.max_z - player.min_z) / 2) 
{ 
wait(1);	//added this...
move (player, rope_speed_up, nullvector); 
}
 
if (key_s == 1) // go down 
{ 
wait(1);     //...and this
move (player, rope_speed_down, nullvector); 
} 

---

Also changed the keys to w and s just like in my game is used.

Now I get a too much actions _rope_event error.
How can I make it work? Please help me!!!
