Hello!
I have this problem, that my character can cling to walls even if it's his head or toes. I tried to use a separate Area2D with CollisionShape2D to register whether a player can cling to a wall or not, making it identical to the original player's hitbox, but shorter. It doens't seem to work. What should i do?
Thank you for your time!

Can you share your player script?
Are you using is_on_floor?

I am, and yeah, let me.

You said the separate Area2D and collision didn't work: What did you do and what did it do?
The on_wall check is always going to use the collision shape of the CharacterBody2D

I don't remember if i kept the code with the other hitbox or not since i went to sleep at 10 am, but i think i see what the problem is.

I think your best bet is going to be a shapecast or raycast for wall grabbing. An Area2D is also an option. Either way, you'll need to put in a little bit of work for wall detection instead of is_on_wall()
Probably not much though

You think Godot Docs should be enough for me to figure out ray casting?

I would think so. Raycasts are on the simpler side as far as godot mechanics go
