I used the ladder tool - very nice indeed! - but the down region wont let the avatar go out from it. After climing down, the avatar turns around and start climbing up again as soon I click with the mouse to go out from the ladder region. I have tried with adding a fixed camera that looks at the avatar from a distance but that doesnt help. I also put a collider on the back region, no change. So what am I missing? The up region does not behave like that?
I can walk out if I use the Arrow keys and walk to the left or right though.

Could you post a screenshot of the ladder modifier on the down region so we can see the settings? We can probably start to troubleshoot there.

Thanks Doobes!
I have not changed any settings at all, as you can see in the screenshots. The 'blender issue' I wrote in the title on this post prevents me from changing anything , if I do blender just quits. That issue came after I first added a Plasma-Ladder from the 'Add'. Blender now does it for everything I add. I havent tried to uninstall and reinstall yet, guess it would be the first thing to try. I didnt do that before I wrote the post so I didnt take that up yesterday.

Yeah, if Blender is being glitchy, that could be affecting Korman as well, I'd reinstall the former, then the latter, then try again.

I just tried adding a new ladder myself and Blender isn't crashing. I haven't exported it yet, but Blender behaves normally and allows me to add and change things.

EDIT: I just tried exporting a ladder and everything works fine. I put 2 loops on both ladder entries (up and down). If the default settings don't work, maybe try that next?

EDIT 2: Here's my blend, in case you want to see my work. It's essentially the same default ladder too:

Thanks again Doobes! I downloaded your .blend file and looked at the ladder. I tested to add another ladder from the add menu, and changed the settings. It all worked fine, as expected. So it must be my own .blend file I have corrupted in some weird way
Nevertheless, I uninstalled blender 2.79b, installed it again and installed Korman as per instructions. Same thing happened - your file works fine, mine doesnt. Sigh. What I have built works fine in offline URU, except from the ladder , so I will finish this build, it is almost finished - without ladders though

So it's a better version?


May I suggest stairs?

Admit it Chacal. At some point in your life, you fell from a ladder and broke a leg

To be fair, in older Ages exported with PyPRP, ladders were better than stairs due to the wonky collisions. Nowadays stairs are fine

Let's put it this way, in real life I climb stairs 10 times a day, and ladders 10 times a year.


I vaguely remember the collision problem, but I think a single sloped collider works very well. I used this in a few places with good results with Plasma and Unity.

Or else just has climbed one ladder too many (read: two) in Uru. :p
