Ladders anyone?

Ok I need a Ladder.
what Ive got is simply use a bounding box via SceneObject,
set some properties for surface type settings.
save out the scale and rotations. thus simply allowing a wrap on anything to turn it climbable
certian surfaces can call certian animations or whatever.
I havent decided yet exactly what to do about the player.
Ill get there when I do :)
Im thinking so far flag him as climbing..
and handle it there. using the box.
or Better maybe to just use an ObjectType (LadderObjectType) and perform some case specific code in his end.(im trying this one first)
thoughts?

I'm just trying to get as many things sorted in my head before i get stuck into my project. This lifter idea sounds pretty cool, unfortunately Kurt's link to the .zip file seems broken. So long story short i was just wondering if anybody else knows where i might be able to get hold of it?
thanks in advance

actually what im trying to do is add ladders first of all.
second is adding the ability to shoot/throw a rope onto a building/ledge and then climb up/down it.
