During this animation, I lock the rigidbody in place where it started the ledgegrab. When the animation is finished, I teleport it atop of the ledge where the animation ended up.
A little sleight of hand, but the player never needs to know ;)

The answer: I don't use the rigidbody for the ledgegrab!
While all other animations happen in place while Munch moves around. The animation for the ledgegrab moves the entirety of Munch.

A ceiling would shoot a laser down, which would be a (0,-1,0) 3d vector.
A floor would shoot a laser up, a (0,1,0) vector.
That's the one we need, so we check if normal.y = 1
Now we only ledgegrab on flat platforms

But hold on! if we hit a sloped surface we don't want to do a ledgegrab.
To check if what we hit is a flat surface, we can check the normal of what we hit.
A normal of a surface is the direction it's facing. Basically, if you shoot a laser from a hole in that surface, which direction would it go?

To check if Munch has a ledge to grab onto, I send raycast that starts a little above and in front of Munch.
This raycast shoots down until it hits something, we can do a ledgegrab!

During testing, players would struggle with some platforms, often panicking when they missed it slightly.
Our solution: give a little leeway when reaching a platform.

To start, I'm making a 3d platformer with a heavy focus on movement.

Do you ever wonder how you make a ledgegrab?
I did, and I will show you how I made it (a thread 🧵):

If I try really hard I can skip a part of my route by surfing over land! It's really fun!

I made the twirljump a little silly, but it's a great way to cover a long distance!
