I am making a side scrolling, urban ninja/parkour game, and one of the game mechanics is the grappling hook.

I know grappling hooks are not simple but I thought I’d give it a try.

I’m aiming for something like the bungee levels on wOne 2

The rope needs to wrap around objects that it touches like this:

(Ignore the bubble in the top right, I’ve fixed that)

I think I have managed to make the rope wrap around objects, using two pairs of stacks, which should be the most complicated bit, but now I can't make the swinging motion.

This is what I have so far (, although don't expect to see anything without the swinging code):

here

I need to have it so the length can be changed, and it also needs to be able to get closer to the pivot point than the current length of the rope (so the rope is not a rod, preventing it from getting closer than its length.)

Most importantly, I need the pivot point to be moveable, as it needs to jump to each new (or old) wrap point.

I’ll try and put you in special thanks if I ever finish it (which is unlikely, but still…)

Thanks.
