Does anyone have any idea how to make ladders?

The kind you climb:

I know youll need a player animation and thats about it. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

I think ladders can be done by making a trigger that sets a variable like %client.laddertrig and this trigger would be where the ladder is in and when people are in it they can press a button that calls a function that checks the cariable and if it is true it would then raise the player up using similer techniques to the teleporting trigger only this would only affect the Z axis

Another way of doing this could be done by making a vehicle that you mount that is invisable that only can move on the z axis
