Hello all. Just working on a map. It has alot of ladders and ironically they act like ladders: when you walk up to them you climb up. Fansy that. The problem is that I cant get off the ladders besides jumping off. I noticed there was an entity called func_ladderendpoint. But I cant get the freakin thing to work. Any suggestions? I just want to be able to sidestep off the ladder at the top or something.

Not to point you to other forums or anything, hehe, but the official ones DO have a much greater collection of topics...see if this helps at all:

Still, the way I see it what you're trying should work fine, assuming you just have the ladder tied to a func_ladder (though I'm not 100% that even that is necessary).

There are several tutorials (including one on ladders) in the SDK reference documents Very helpful stuff in there. There's also a LOT of example maps for different features.

As far as I know, the only way to get off a ladder is to jump. That at least was my experience playing though the game. [addsig]

Thanks. I figured it out. You have to add ladder dismount points and attach them to the ladder entity.
