I am creating a game where terrain is a huge structure , and is very important that people can not climb up with ease.
For those who might be confused:
Terrain climbing is when you put your character into mouse lock, and you wiggle your body and screen back and forth while jumping, and it will allow you to climb up a straight wall of any height for terrain.
I know terrain is overlooked and lots of people have little care for it, but it is very important for my game, and I would love for ROBLOX to be able to patch this, so you can't climb up a wall, just like a regular part.
[(Common Comments)] ANSWERED
1."Just add bricks inside or on edges the terrain, then they can't climb it."
My response - I can't do that. The game is completely terrain, I wouldn't be using terrain if I just used bricks. The amount of bricks it would take to keep people from climbing the terrain would be an insane amount, thousands and thousands of bricks.
2. "Add edges of extra terrain blocks so they can't climb it"
My response- I would do this, but again, it would be everywhere, every part of the map would have ridges and it would look really ugly. You shouldn't even be able to terrain climb, so you shouldn't have to add all of that.
3. "Make this feature optional"
My response- Very true and that is an excellent idea. It should be optional as well. I suppose because lots of other games DO depend on terrain climbing.
If you have any suggestions or ideas to add to this, please do so, and feel free to comment. I would love to see some support on this.
That is all.

Blame character animations.
(Namely, the HumanoidRootPart) |

Non support
Just put an invisible brick on the terrain,
problem solved. |
|
|
You dont need mouse lock for it |
|

@Longly if we use that logic many updates aren't needed!
ROBLOX needs to be the best, as simplified and easy to work with as possible. Making it intuitive is the right move, ignoring it just because it's not a big deal is a lack of innovation on anyone's part. |

Script it so that terrain is a conveyer that sends you down. |

I have a feeling some of you didn't read the thread :), but that's ok.
Conveyer belt, with velocity, that is not a bad idea. I guess you can't manually change the velocity of terrain without the script you suggested. |

Some terrain is basically a brick but with more surfaces. Terrain you can climb on is merely a brick that has certain dimensions. Blame the x y z of it. I believe that this is the problem. I thik this could be solved by doing, what has been said, put an invisible brick. If you are using stamper tool, resize the bricks to wanted dimensions. |

|

Support, and LOL, i can play as OP in the league of roblox.
Terrain climbing also works with regular bricks. |

What's so bad about them? They have so much benefits in many games. It's part of the character physics, and it shouldn't be removed, it's an incredibly minor thing. It should be an option if anything, in Terrain to disable it. |

Partial support.
I kinda depend on this glitch to kinda win certain games and kinda removing this kinda lets me not do that. |

ROBLOX Animations Wallclimb Test
http://youtu.be/aCtODvVpO3Q
"In this test, I disable animations and test wall-climbing. The test is conclusive that animations did not cause wall-climbing."
this is still an issue, i still support |
|

The fact that this works on bricks that are copied right above each other makes them like ladders if you are able to jump their height. This is not a problem with terrain, it is even with normal bricks. And since terrain is basically multi-surface bricks sometimes and sometimes like regular rbicks, this would have to be fixed with the bricks. |
|
|
just place a huge invisible brick in place. Maybe a height of about 30 studs should do the trick. |
|
|
Add the velocity to a terrain brick, and make the vel 'Y', I belive, it shall stop Wallclimbing,
Unless a haxor ruins it. |
|

Do ANY of you EVER READ the thread? He has the comments most of you are saying replied to.
HE CAN"T USE BRICKS
Its significant for his game to use terrain, he says this.
HE SUGGESTS MAKING IT OPTIONAL TO TURN ON OR OFF THE TERRAIN CLIMBING
READ THE WHOLE THING
Thank you |

Totally Supported, And You Don't Really Need Mouse Lock For It.
I Prefer That That They Make An Update To Fix This By Making The Terrain Part One Long Part Instead Of 1 Above 1 Above 1, Etc.
That Would Be A Nice Idea To Make an Update To Fix This, I Mean This Really Needed Fixing From A Long Time Ago Because They Keep Glitching Those Stuff And Ruining The Fun In Game's, And As You Said, Some Game's Are Based On Terrain And That Would Totally Ruin Those Game's. So Let's Support This Until The ROBLOX Staff Find It And Make An Update And Fix It. |

Good point there but still, terrain and stuff has made it simpler, but more limited and awkward, and its just added to more of the PLAY MINECRAFT WITH SKINS games, And I agree the terrain climbing should be toggle-able somehow, like switching between 2 systems of movement (like armoured patrol uses friction movement) And so should SO MANY AND MANY of other things in roblox, like having to use stamper tool...Problem is, It wont happen, roblox dont listen...They wont listen. |

if ROBLOX undid the unlimited jumping thing this would be fixed
but it's already difficult due to little friction |
|
|
Longly, They added a hacker protection toggle-able (for some reason that's about the ONLY thing they put toggle-able, but at-least its something) ((p.s. we really dont need that toggled)) its in the roblox KIWI, Just surf it a bit and you'll find the name. |
