Description

This related to this ticket 3705,
but unlike 3705, I am specific only to animation.
This alone would make the ladder much better.

Climb up/down a ladder

Additional Information

Please watch this: (not my video)

As you can see in the video the hands continue to "hold the ladder" (holding the air)
even after the character has already passed the ladder.
It does not place it's hands on the floor (roof) and pushes itself up.

Also when climbing down the ladder the character does not kneel down to to hold the
ladder and turn, it's just grabbing the air as if the ladder continue up above the
roof and instantly turns 180 degrees.

Looking at Dslyecxi's video from raven sheild you can see how it should look:

It is really a simple animation that would make the game much more immersive
and polished.

On a side note, I think that pressing the vaulting key should drop you
from the ladder, in a case I am 1 meter above ground and under fire,
the animation is too slow to complete, in real life I would probably jump
even from 3 meters to avoid getting hit by bullets.

#3705 may only be related, but #1228 is about the animations.
