Bug when placing ladders

Hello. I wasn't sure if this has been said before but I can place ladders horizontally only in raidable bases. When I copy paste bases, I cannot place them horizontally and on player bases I cannot place them horizontally. 

heya. ladders are placed vertically in raidable bases (up and down) which is how the game does it. it should not be possible to place them horizonally (left and right). I tested for you and it functions normally. perhaps you have a plugin altering this

Weird cause I have nothing else that does this. The only other plugin that has anything with ladders is AntiLadderandTwig. I unloaded it and tried it again and it still does it only in raidable bases

I'm not sure how you are able to do this then. is there some new ladder that I'm not aware of?

Nope. I can recheck just to make sure I don't have anything. 

ok, let's try this then. edit the .cs

change line 2365 from

Quote

Quaternion rot = Quaternion.LookRotation(constructionType == ConstructionType.Barricade ? (t.position.WithY(0f) - hit.point.WithY(0f)).normalized : hit.normal);

to

Quote

Quaternion rot = Quaternion.LookRotation(item.info.shortname == "ladder.wooden.wall" ? hit.normal : (t.position.WithY(0f) - hit.point.WithY(0f)).normalized);

and line 2375 from

if (constructionType == ConstructionType.Ladder && hit.GetEntity() is BaseEntity hitEntity)

Currently out. I will test tonight. Thanks for the quick response

Did not work. I can still place them. 

I can send a vid in discord of whats happening

I dont see how that is possible. surely it is a plugin or mod breaking it

Idk how though. Is there a debug I could do to see if its RaidableBases?

not necessarily, a plugin can modify the rotation by multiple means such as on spawn.

do you have a test server

I do

ok. load up Raidable bases and copypaste only and try it out there

@Snaplatack

I just got a chance to look at the video you sent me. you can disregard everything I said above. I was mistaken in what you were telling me

I thought you meant the ladders were rotating on walls horizontally, rather than being able to deploy them horizontally such as on roofs or ceilings.

ya, I think this is fine, unless you see it as a problem?

The only problem I would have with this is that if players can counter a raid, the owner of the raid can put ladders like that to stop someone from getting into the base. 

true, but you can deploy them normally to obstruct entry too

I will see if I can block it though

Its not intentional in default rust. If it was normal, I wouldnt care. I just dont want unexpected outcomes for players.

many things in this plugin aren't in default rust, but I did say I'd try to block it =p

alright, may have a solution. change:

Quote

if (!(player.GetActiveItem() is Item item) || !IsConstructionType(item.info.shortname, ref constructionType))

to

Quote

if (!(player.GetActiveItem() is Item item) || !IsConstructionType(item.info.shortname, ref constructionType) || item.info.shortname == "ladder.wooden.wall" && Mathf.Abs(hit.normal.y) > Mathf.Max(Mathf.Abs(hit.normal.x), Mathf.Abs(hit.normal.z)))

Fixed! Thank you
