@FatsharkStrawHat Is it possible to find out wether this big Ogryn patch also will fix the bug that prevents Ogryn from vaulting/climbing over fences?

There are a lot of bug reports on this one and it’s been in for over a year now and is very frustrating. For reference I’ll link to one here:

Ogryn unable to vault ledges/fences a lot

Issue Type (Required): Player Mechanics Issue Description (Required): Ogryn fails to vault a lot of things that humans can. It’s not that he can’t do it, it’s that it’s broken and just makes him slide off a lot of the time. If you try it 10+ times it usually works. It usually happens on those small fences Steps to Reproduce (Required): play ogryn find a fence try to vault it ??? bug

Gpkgpk has a very good analysis of what is probably going wrong in there btw:

Ogryn unable to vault ledges/fences a lot

Stuff behaves differently for humans, e.g. immediately vaulting over a window ledge or ledge railing no jumping or mid-air checks, where ogryn has more hurdles to jump (sorry); the human skips virtually all the checks. The vaultable stuff’s heights seem tailor-made for human who do the grab animation and vault over, ogryn doesn’t have these animations. I think some of the Ogryn values may be wrong or at least ill-thought out in relation to their size. Humans vs Ogryns (renamed vars for clari…

Would be cool if the big ogryn rework could get rid of this very frustrating bug in particular too. It would be an indirect mobility buff if you think about it, letting him consistently vault fences.
