What I think is that ladder mdls should be nonsolid & nonclipped in MP mods...this is because the the ladder brush will handle all of the solidity while functioning correctly—ts2do 19:33, 30 Jan 2006 (PST)

You mean the func_ladder brush? Unless I'm mistaken, that only applies for CS:S and DoD:S (which I have stated in the Working Ladders article). HL2:DM doesn't have a func_ladder brush. Do you mean that you only prefer the non-solid method when there is a func_brush involved?--Andreasen 21:37, 30 Jan 2006 (PST)

yes since the func_ladder takes place of the solid...of course some clipping may be good to "guide" the player—ts2do 22:19, 30 Jan 2006 (PST)

Okay. I already wrote what you're tellig me last night, so if you wanted it written yesterday, you got it. :)
The other cases of non-solid techniques are there because wisemx has persisted that non-solid ladders are totally superior in every case, including HL2:SP, and as people seem to agree without providing much evidence, I wanted to sort things out. --Andreasen 22:37, 30 Jan 2006 (PST)

I think it's just an understood expectation in MP to be able to move freely parallel to the surface that a ladder covers.—ts2do 23:06, 30 Jan 2006 (PST)

When is comes to brush ladders entirely against a wall, they're somewhat flat, so then you can get away with it, but prop ladders are so large that it will look wierd if someone stands inside a non-solid ladder, so I'd prefer 45 degree angled player clips at the sides - a normal technique when it comes to avoid the player getting stuck on uneven walls.

Wiki markup

Your contributions are appreciated, but please read Help:Editing to learn more wiki formatting markup. You should not be using HTML tags like <i>. Wiki markup uses '' for marking italics. --JeffLane 11:48, 31 Jan 2006 (PST)

Oh, thank you. I was adopting the current style from the article I was editing, thinking it was correct. I've read Help:Editing now, and updated all the articles. Is there any page where it sais what is supposed to be italized, and also if the <code></code>-markup is okay to use, and when? --Andreasen 12:14, 31 Jan 2006 (PST)
