Enhancing Russell’s Climbing Abilities Here are the latest updates on the climbing mechanics we’re developing for Russell: Current Capabilities Ledge Jumping: Russell can now jump from ledge to ledge, provided they are at the same height. This allows him to traverse horizontal gaps effectively. Vertical Movement: Russell can climb up and down ledges, making it

This initial version allows Russell to interact with ledges and start climbing, but there are still some issues to iron out. One of the main challenges I’m facing is with the positioning of
