Hi,
I am having trouble creating an acceptable script for climbing a ladder.
A description of my scene is as follows:
I am using ODE for my rigid body physics (movement, collisions, etc.)
It is a FPS type game
The player climbs a narrow ladder into the hull of a plane.
What I am doing now is using a platform that lowers and raises when the player hits a certain area, using up & down key. TO prevent angular drift, I created a cage to hold the player in as it lifts. The problems arise when the cage appears and “impales” the player making him stuck. The other problem is the cage is to wide to fit through the doorway. Any other ideas or a better way for a ladder script? Thanks in advance.
