Unreal Engine 5 Tutorial - Mantling (Borderlands 3 inspired)

my little amount of free time lately has been spent playing borderlands 3 with the mrs, and i really liked the mantling ability to climb ledges. so i thought we'd recreate it! it's a pretty simple feature but can add a lot of versatility to your games by increasing maneuverability, so let's jump in and see how it's done!

It worked really well but how would i remove the red lines left behind

[@kuc0r]

Great tutorial! Ive come up with another solution to the problem you solved by adding "mantle from". Instead of casting a line i just cast a sphere.

i'm confused, when the trace hits, if im not holdin space the trace still shows, but if i run away, far enought to where i shouldnt mantle, my character teleports over to where the trace hit. how can i fix this?

[@IAmHereForYou228]

Very nice try. Maybe a direcțional dash next ?

[@CCGS]

that sounds pretty cool, i think we could do that :D

[@TheNomadEpire]

@@CCGS will be very nice

Hey man, great tutorial! One issue though. This enables you to mantle through things rather than just onto ledges. For instance if you place a ceiling within a height that the ray trace can reach, you can simple mantle/teleport through the ceiling. Any ideas on how to fix this?

I too would love to know a bit more on this front. I followed this tutorial and got it to work great, but I want to lower the mantle height so the player can't just mantle up on an impossibly high ledge

So ive stopped on 13:36 for testing and my character refuses to mantle, the capsule and line trace all work and update to show where it should ne but my character just doesnt go. Can you help bro?

Can this also be implemented in the lyra game?

[@jakelevitt7245]

mine just pushes me through the wall every time

[@kingragner55]

but how can i mantil higher ?

[@limoncatt]

Adjust the mantling height in the up trace.
