info_ladder
This entity is Obsolete. Its use is discouraged, and it may only exist/function in older engine branches.
This entity is not in the FGD by default.
It should not be put directly in a map because it is automatically generated by VBSP from func_ladder entities.

info_ladder is an entity available in 
Source 2006 and 
Source 2007.
Based on VBSP source code, info_ladder is intended to help bots navigate the ladders created from func_ladder entities (which are collapsed to worldspawn by VBSP), but it is not used in current versions of Source that use func_ladder.
Important:This is a preserved entity in 
.
- On a new round entities with this classname will intentionally not reset. You can use
logic_autoto emulate resetting it. - Killing it removes it forever, as it is not respawned on a new round.
- It cannot be spawned with a
point_template. - Parenting this with non preserved entities may have undesirable effects.
Warning:In games where info_ladder doesn't exist and func_ladder is being converted into this, the console warning "Attempted to create unknown entity type info_ladder!" will be shown when running the map. In such instances, it is better to instead use func_detail with a material that has %CompileLadder unless the specific game has established different way of creating ladders.
Note:Some third-party bot plugins read info_ladder to find ladders, such as the version of Omnibot included (but currently inactive) in 
Fortress Forever.Keyvalues
