Ladder use Cooldown Timer

Post by **Feweh** » 03 Aug 2015, 19:09

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):
Stop people/Alien's from going up and down Ladders to avoid a situation/fight.

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):
Less bullshit

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):
Put a cooldown timer for using Ladders, just 5 seconds type of thing... which is enough too shoot or slash someone once or twice.
Or make it so it takes 5 seconds to climb up and down ladders.

Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):
Code it?

I think he means per person rather than per ladder. Otherwise that wouldn't fix anything at all anyways if you could just click a different ladder to ignore cooldown.

Per person.

If that is so, then of course we need this.

I can't see how this hurts, but yes. A player can spam going up and down the ladders like an idiot.

+1, I once saw a human spamming up and down on the ladder to shoot the aliens so fast they could not even be hurt.

That would require 2 mouses O.o to click on 2 places at the same time.

If you can use a macro to click the ladder (not sure if its a verb or not maybe use object) then its possible.

..I'd kind of like to take it a step farther and make climbing ladders take a moment or two, while going down them takes much less/no time at all.

I don't know if I would go this far. Ladder congestion can already be pretty bad early game. I think not being able to spam click it would be plenty.
