I've attached a hold here showcasing the Grappling Hook, which functions identically to the accessory in RPG. The script is included, if you want to check it out and create your own puzzles with it.

Just be sure to have a character with the command "Set Global Script: Grappling Hook" to let the script work in every room.

Enjoy!

I've attached an updated version of the hold here. Now, the grappling hook will destroy the trapdoor you leaped from - unless you're wielding a dagger! (Unarmed users will still drop trapdoors of their last weapon was larger than a dagger, unfortunately. I can't seem to fix this.)

Again, feel free to use this script in any hold you make. I'm working on such a hold right now, actually.

Possibly Build Trapdoor in the player's origin?

You might have to have a character checking every turn the player's location - if it contains a trapdoor set a flag to 1, if it contains a trapdoor over water set the flag to 2, otherwise set it to 0.

Leaping over a gap on the edge of the room crashes the game.

Would you please post a bug report on this? We need to track this on the Bugs board or we'll lose sight of it.

In the meantime, it's simple enough to appropriate the script and make it stop before it tries to check a coordinate that isn't in the room.

Thanks, all. The crash/hang should be fixed in 5.0.1.6044.
