📋 About This Mod

Thanks to the awesome Climbable Ladder Resource provided by Hopper31 I bring you climbable water towers!

This mod requires Rectified Water Towers!

"Bu.. but.. my vanilla..."  Vanilla water towers do not have collision or a platform on which to walk around on up top, not to mention the ladder on them is broken. So you'd have to replace the water tower model anyways so might as well use the best one available.

To use the ladders, just simply walk up to the front of them and hit whatever key you have assigned as your activate key (default E) and used W and S for up and down. Sometimes depending on your camera position whether it's more up or down will switch the keys directions so W will make you go down and vice versa. Not sure why but it's not too big of an issue. When you reach the top of the climb hit your activate key again and you will be up on the platform to enjoy the superior battle position or point of temporary retreat (if you survive the climb in the heat of combat.)

I've added the ability to climb all 6 7 (if Fallout Wiki is correct) vanilla placed water towers.

  • []Behind the graves in the Goodsprings Cemetery.

    []On the northern side of Camp Searchlight.

    []Behind the Crimson Caravan main office.

    []Behind the town hall in Nipton.

    []Near the playground behind the Primm houses.

    []Behind the barracks in Nelson.

  • Added the water tower at Novac. (Wasn't listed on the wiki, should've known it was there though)

    A few of the water towers in vanilla were scaled down in size so I've brought them back up to full scale for this mod to work properly and and I've adjusted their placements to accommodate their bigger sizes. Since this is the case you will most likely need to regenerate your object LOD for them to be consistent at a distance and up close.

    I've also added a version for use with Nefarious Nipton. That mod removes the water tower from behind the Nipton Town Hall, so I've added it back and adjusted it's placement for this mod.

    I may add more placements for the other mods I use that add water towers as I find them.

    There is a now a version for TTW thanks to DevvEloper!
