Hey,
I'm working on a jumpstats plugin for cs:go and this contains a jump style called "ladderjump". The following picture shows 2 sketches. The left sketch how a legit ladder jump looks like. Player x jumps forward to a block with the same ground level as the ladder. This technique requires a lot of skill because you need to have a correct view angle to get a good pre speed at the upper ladder edge. The right sketch shows an easier way to get a good ladder jump distance. You just have to "slide off" the ladder at the highest point. It's kinda hard to explain.. You don't have to align your view angle to get a good prespeed. I hope those 2 sketches help to imagine my issue. I have no idea how to check whether player x jumped forward in relation to the ladder orientation. I have only a method which checks the jump direction on normal jumps (but that does not help here):

thx4help

Could you rephrase the question? Maybe you can use the m_vecLadderNormal sendprop on the player when he jumps of.

Maybe showing what you tried helps too.

thats the method i was talking about. But that does not help on ladder jumps because i need to bring in ladder orientation to detect the actual moving direction on ladder jumps.

stock Float:GetClientMovingDirection(client)
{
    new Float:fVelocity[3];
    GetEntPropVector(client, Prop_Data, "m_vecAbsVelocity", fVelocity);
       
    new Float:fEyeAngles[3];
    GetClientEyeAngles(client, fEyeAngles);

    if(fEyeAngles[0] > 70.0) fEyeAngles[0] = 70.0;
    if(fEyeAngles[0] < -70.0) fEyeAngles[0] = -70.0;

    new Float:fViewDirection[3];
    GetAngleVectors(fEyeAngles, fViewDirection, NULL_VECTOR, NULL_VECTOR);
       
    NormalizeVector(fVelocity, fVelocity);
    NormalizeVector(fViewDirection, fViewDirection);

    new Float:direction = GetVectorDotProduct(fVelocity, fViewDirection);
    return direction;
}

If the return value of that snippet is > 0, you know the player is loosely looking in the direction he's going.

If you first check if the player is looking in the direction he's moving to with that method and next see if he's moving close to the ladder's normal direction, you would know if he's jumping straight of a ladder or not. It's the same code as above, just replacing the player viewdirection with the ladder normal.

You might have to invert the ladder normal, depending on what you define as "forward" ;)
