Using control rig logic, this set of Blueprints can enable great looking, lifelike movement while climbing. Using no animations, the control rig finds full body placement using the power of the Full Body IK. This works great for quick level design as the logic can adapt quite well to natural environs. *****Works best with rounded edges or obtuse angles! Will get strange results with spikes, holes or deep cracks in the terrain, or angles sharper than 100 degrees!***** Contents include a Character Blueprint for the movement around world actors, an Animation Blueprint that makes use of variables set from the default Third Person Character from Unreal Engine, and the control rig itself. Entirely done in Blueprints, no C++. I’ve included comments in the blueprints for anyone interested in learning control rig and have also included multiple methods I’ve learned to help those that want to use this for that purpose.
