Turn any Part into a Climbable Ladder!

[wind coral]

Instead of using a truss and clipping it inside the part. Each part get's divided into segments with the gap of 1 stud. Then I need to create a clone of the part but make it's Scale.Y small and it's Scale.X and Scale.Z to be slightly larger to make it climbable. The problem is I only have the analogy to how it could be done but got no clue on how to actually script it. It's only my 5th day in Roblox Studio so I'm still a beginner.

I tried to do this and ended up with this script but this just froze and crashed the Studio..

local boxes = script.Parent:GetChildren()
for _, box in ipairs(boxes) do
    if box:IsA("Model") then
        local parts = box:GetChildren()
        for _, stone in ipairs(parts) do
            if stone:IsA("Part") and stone.Material == Enum.Material.Rock then
                task.wait(0.1)
                local distanceY = math.floor(stone.Size.Y)
                
                local segments = distanceY / 2
                
                for i = 1, segments do
                    local topPosition = distanceY - (distanceY / 2)
                    local slab = stone:Clone()
                    slab.Size = Vector3.new(stone.Size.X, 1, stone.Size.Z)
                    slab.Position = Vector3.new(stone.Position.X, topPosition - i * segments , stone.Position.Z)
                    slab.Anchored = true
                    
                    slab.Parent = stone
                end
            end
        end
    end
end

just make an invisible truss

not bad for a 5th day tho

[wind coral]

truss cannot scale more than (2, y, 2)

anyways i got it working

the part acts like a ladder so i can climb any part now

memory usage 📈

[wind coral]

absolute nuts

If you wanted to, you could copy the ladders and paste them in, instead of having to generate them every single time

When the game is running you can copy them, and once it ends you can paste them into workspace if you want, it would make things easier and more efficient

[wind coral]

wouldn’t it be the same thing?

if i only generate the ladder upon player touch would it make it better

[tribal jungle]

You’re over complicating things

[tribal jungle]

No, as they wouldn’t have to generate then

[wind coral]

it's becuase the hills thmeselves need to be randomly generated

[tribal jungle]

Ahhhhh ok

I understand now mb

Do you have anything else that needs to be fixed

[wind coral]

yes

it's a different problem

[tribal jungle]

Wha

[wind coral]

the rope (part) is not smoothly attached to player's arm

it's not a beam nor rope constraint

[tribal jungle]

Why not

[wind coral]

mechanic that i'm working on requires it to be a part

also, i did try beam

it was still laggy

[tribal jungle]

Is this on client or server?

[wind coral]

server

[tribal jungle]

Try it on client

[wind coral]

it was laggy on client

[tribal jungle]

Ohoohohohh

Ok

[wind coral]

created and positioned through server

[tribal jungle]

Did you try to create and pos on client?

[wind coral]

i did try SetNetworkOwner(player)

[wind coral]

yes it was smooth

so do i make the server rope transparent for player and clone and create new on server and make That visible?

?

or is there a better way

[tribal jungle]

That’s what I would do but there’s probably a better way

Idk what it would be tho
