Rope Swing Mechanic

THIS IS NO LONGER FOR USAGE AS I AM WORKING ON THIS PROJECT AGAIN

Alrighty, so a while back I made a rope swinging mechanic similar to how the game called Karlson’s rope worked, and I recently saw how many people enjoyed that. So I wanted to give away the mechanic as open source, I’m giving away an older version of it, as that way more people will be fueled to make it better then I ever could.

I hope it goes to good use, if you use it, you don’t have to credit me, but it would be appreciated.

It’s kinda wonky, but gets the job done.

If you have questions about it, contact me on Discord (Boogle#4509)

Download: I have decided to begin working on this project again, so the open source has been removed. I apologize.

Original Game: Risky Ropes - Roblox

What it looks like: yeet

Very nice, i will add it to my game and i’ll credit you ofc, i have never created a rope/grappling system but honestly it looks pretty hard to do since i never mess with physics, Thanks for that i will probably go and try messing with some stuff with this lol.

I’m only copying a version of my game with the rope.

I might use this to make a realistic grapple

The code used for this is actually really simple.
These aren’t custom ropes with custom CFramed physics, they’re RopeConstraint objects that take advantage of default Roblox physics and an added BodyForce for a kick.

These are the main lines of code that make everything work:

(The pointOne.WorldPosition line could be shortened to pointOne.WorldPosition = grapplePoint.Position, so I did)

Makes HumanoidRootPart accelerate towards camera’s look vector

Easy to understand, but still cool

You can find the rope-related code under StarterGui.ScriptsAndStuff.GrappleMechanic.Grapple

Awesome! I mainly had the r15 scale thing in there because if people made their scale small locally it would make them like 2x speed

#16

Yea. I think I should try the R15 version to try it.
Thanks, Boogle, my game would not be good without your grapple!
