Lara jumps off ladder after grabbing

[Enzi]

I'm getting this since the patch. Seems like a wrong input queue command.
It's getting really annoying and I didn't find any topic on it. I can't be the only one.
The time is really long because Lara has to adjust herself before starting to move up/down a ladder. As soon as she has adjusted, she'll make a backwards flip.

If you haven't changed anything in the way you play, this shouldn't be happening. Things you can try to mitigate this while you wait for a solution: Use Action instead of Jump to get onto ladders from the ground. Whenever you have to jump towards the ladder, make sure to let go of the jump button the moment her feet leave the ground, and just hold action from there on in. Basically put as much "temporal distance" between your last Jump input and her making contact with the ladder.

Other things to try: Check if the same thing happens when you use a different input device. Check what happens when you unplug all other controllers/HIDs. If you're a controller user, check if it makes a difference whether you're using Steam Input vs native controller support. Check your Task Manager for any processes/applications that might interfere with your input device. Check if it makes a difference when you whitelist the game in your antivirus software (do this while disconnected from the internet, just to be safe). Have Steam verify your game files. Delete the game and redownload.

These are all shots in the dark, though. Hopefully someone else has an easy fix for you.

modern controls ?

I run it under Linux, Keyboard and tank controls. Just wanted to know if anyone else has the same problem. Maybe it's just a Linux thing.
This bug happens even with just a quick tap on the ALT key and then just holding CTRL to grab. There really shouldn't be any jump input left.
Which reminds me, I also had some awkward second jump after just one jump input. So it's not just on ladders. No idea how to reproduce, it's happening very erratically but when jumped towards ladders it's like 50% chance.

That's strange. If you hold the action button in tank control she shouldn't fall. In modern controls, you just hold it to grab, then you don't have to keep your finger on button (give it a try, just practice a few times in Lara's TR3 mansion with a controller).

They are good in a controller. I can't say much about keyboard+mouse. My problem was more my mind confusing the buttons for playing tank my whole life, but I got used to them and now everything can be done faster.
