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
.

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.
