(vurtual's fork) Advanced Urban Rappelling

Description
This is a quick and hasty fork I did of Duda's Advanced Urban Rappelling mod.
This one will not work as a serverside only mod, as it adds items to the game.

These are a rappelling gear set, and rappelling ropes. To rappel, you must be carrying rappelling gear, and at least one rope. More 10 meter ropes will let you rappel farther down, and any ropes you use to get down will be left at the starting position of your rappel. They can be picked up and reused by someone else, if needed.

Rappelling also now takes five seconds to set up, as a hold action.

For a more up to date version of this mod, try for example: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1916062371

This version has been patched up further since by other people, the most recent one I've seen is https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1916062371 but there may be others. While the license wouldn't prohibit me from reuploading their fixes to my own workshop page, it'd probably be better if i linked them instead.

do you intend to update your mod, it does not work and the items are invisible, we are playing with ace 3

Gotcha. I took a look at it and I couldn't even figure out where the rope object was spawned at...

I did this as a quick experiment a while ago, and didn't have the skill to do anything more advanced. Using multiple types of rope would be more complicated, and also those are fastropes, which are big, heavy, and thick, vs normal static or dynamic line.
Actually having the rope stay hanging there would involve making the dangling rope usable and interactive, which I don't really know how to do.

I posted this earlier: "Having the rope stay on its anchor point until the player actually dismantles it would be cool too." and realized that was supposed to work this way, but it doesn't. The rope disappears, but the object stays on the rappell point. Is there a way to make the rope stay hanging from it's anchor point?

Also, would it be possible to make a version of this that uses the ACE Rappelling Ropes? (ACE_rope12, ACE_rope15, ACE_rope18, ACE_rope27, ACE_rope36)

@Lasket, you can only have so many characters in your modline before steam truncates it and it comes up as corrupted when people go to join - compressing all your smol mods into a single big mod solves this.

That's why people ask.

I got the rope and the gear but still dont know how to rappell, there is no option in the wheel menu nor in the ACE menu. Is there a specific key?

@Wolf I'll never understand people uploading modlists.. just do a collection or use the Arma 3 modlists from the launcher..
