Without any scripts, a player is able to climb a truss curving inwards up to a 45 degree angle.

Some things to note:

  • Anything over 45 degrees will cause the player to fall
  • You cannot climb down, as you will let go of the ladder
  • I’m unsure if this works with all climbable surfaces, I’ve only tried with trusses.
  • The player’s animation will not tilt when climbing at an angle, they will still appear to be climbing a flat ladder

Demonstration (recorded in Railroads by thomasawl, game not recommended):

I’d like to see what people do with this glitch.

There’s a game called Juke’s Towers of Hell that has been utilizing this “glitch” for years, in fact its a thing used in a lot of difficult (Tower of Hell is not difficult) vertical obbies and some horizontal ones too!
