I didn't end up adding naything to the game, because no one seemed to need it.
However, I *can* still add a checkbox to T triggers that saysActivate only if jack is on solid ground. Which would allow you to indicate for *some* triggers that they activate only if he's currently on solid ground. Would that be helpful to add?
Would that be true for ladders as well? If so, then yes that would be useful. Otherwise, if this is where I think it is, I was considering putting a coin on the ladder towards the very top of the screen and using the existing rule you have in place for the triggers. So long as Jack hasn't just come down the final ladder, then the trigger shouldn't accidentally fire. I've used this trick other places.
