Well actually, ladders that are doors.
Is this possible?
I am working on a collab RP map for HL1, and it is my first mapping job ever. I have been tasked with creating the bank, and I was wondering if it is possible to make a ladder (well, a rope) which will be able to be moved via a button? My plan was to make it so the bank robbers could push an external button, and ropes would drop down, allowing the robbers to escape. But after experimentation, I dont think its possible to have something as a func_ladder AND a func_door (but if im wrong, please help me =))
Is it possible to 'deactivate' the ladder throught the use of a button, for example, could my button 'deactivate' the func_ladder, and make the visible brush assiciated with it ascend into the air?
Which brings me to my next problem. Would there be any way to hide the rope once it gets above a certain point, so that there isnt a gigantic rope sticking out of the ceiling all the time?
Thanks
