There is a ladder climbing resource that you might be able to use, create a projectile then follow the raycast as a path maybe(im not a coder, but this seems like the logical way to go)Tribes vengence had a similar weapon.

There is a grapple hook resource if you search for it, but you would have to know your c++ because it is not up to date for 1.5. (at least when I used it, it had many errors when I compiled).
