if you're having an issue when you get to the top of the ladder, just hold whatever your vault key is to climb over the invisible wall, i can't guarantee it'll work but it did for me.

Astratic we same trouble

I think I discovered a half-bug. Some buildings (ie the map itself being the issue) have a low wall at the top of the ladder- although not being readily visible due to rounding out the top fence structures, there is something you can destroy at the top of the ladder (accessed the roof via stairs). Once destroyed, I was able to use the ladder from top and bottom. I believe that this is similar to Manwich's issue, and is a oversight built into the map (as sheet rope starts from the low fence). Found this out at Riverside's post office.

i.e. Some buildings in the map have an "invisible" short wall at the top of ladders that prevent climbing onto flat roof. Perhaps remedy by somehow allowing a short wall phase through/fence jump at the top of the ladders?

Still works for me. Just not sheet ropes which is fine for me. I use collapsible ladders with this. Needs an update though still.
Manwich Jul 18 @ 9:53am 
Pretty much none of the ladders are working for me. Muldraugh warehouses for example (B42)

Can only get onto ladder from the ground, and get off the ladder at the ground.

But cannot do anything at the top of the ladder (can't get on or get off)

Currently bugged with sheet ropes in b42.10.0. As wel, exactly same issue with Entrum.

Just fyi some maps dont work properly. Probably the minority but they exist nevertheless.
Banana Phone Jul 2 @ 6:45pm 
Just want to say that I'm on 42.10 and I use this still whether it bugs sheet ropes or not. I don't even use sheet ropes though with this mod and collapsible ladders combined, there's no need unless I need a quick escape from somewhere other than my base. But I'm pretty sure that still works. I havn't experienced any problems climbing any ladders like some others have reported except for certain mod maps with their own ladders. But about half of the map mods I have with ladders do work. I assumed the ones that don't work are just textures rather than functional ladders. If anyone has trouble climbing down, I hold down the interact button rather than a single press and it works. Thanks for the mod!

Currently bugged with sheet ropes in b42.9.0. Sometimes replaces the sheet rope climbing animation with the ladder one, blocks climbing up if there is a window with barricades in front of it, creates an invisible short fence in front of doors and also blocks climbing up
