Thanks 22cal. Most of the mappers know about this bug but it isn't currently on our list of statics not to use. I will add it. Since it's a vBF2 static we don't have the original files. It isn't impossible to fix, but it's not likely going to happen. The better solution is for mappers to use the other smoke stack instead.

Thanks again.

umm AF, wouldn't put it on the "statics not to use" list, simplest way to fix this would be just to move the child ladder position a little (most likely more into the chimney) so this doesn't happen.

Aah, great idea! I just moved the center ladder in a bit and tested it and now you don't fall. :)

The only drawback is the ladder now doesn't line up visually at the top or bottom but that's fine:

It's only visual as I tested entering and exiting it several times and it works. I'll update the file so it'll be fixed after the next release.

Thanks again Rhino and 22cal.
