I am having a problem with ladders in my level, I have the ladder in the spot where I want it. I am able to climb up the ladder fine; however, I am unable to get down the ladder. Any ideas why? I have the func_useableladder prop in the right spot, and the info_ladderdismount entries are placed right. Like I said I can climb up the ladder, but I am unable to come down the ladder without falling. Help please.
 
Create your prop/brush/whatever you want to climb, place that in your desired location. Then create another brush parrallel to the entity/brush you just created, space it out as close as you can get it to the brush/entity, but try not to let them touch. Also make it the exact (or as close as you can get it to) length and width of your entity/brush. Apply the toolsnodraw texture to the brush that you just created and then hit ctrl + T (while selecting) and where it says "func_***" rename it func_ladder. Compile and test.

What this does is creates an invisible surface that is the actual climbing material. The closer you create this brush to the "ladder", the better it will look.
 
Thanks

Thanks for the answer. I will give it a try here this weekend.
