CS2 Ladder Movementspeed

The sv_ladder_scale_speed value (default 0.78) in CS2 is indeed a multiplier of the player's base movement speed. The standard max running speed is 250 units/sec, so 0.78 × 250 = 195 units/sec is your effective speed on ladders. This applies to vertical movement; combining it with W+D likely increases the horizontal component, but 195 u/s is the base for calculations.

You can test exact behavior with a custom workshop map and a timer script to fine-tune it.

Interesting question about CS2 ladder speed! The sv_ladder_scale_speed command definitely seems relevant. Calculating movement accurately can be tricky. It's like optimizing your path in a fast-paced Google Snake. Maybe experiment with different values around 0.78 relative to the base running speed of 250, factoring in the potential multiplier.

The famous “fast ladder climbing” technique geometry dash lite (look up + sideways + diagonal input) absolutely increases effective vertical speed compared to just holding W. Community testing still reports this behavior in CS2. The engine normalizes/clamps movement vectors, so diagonal ladder movement does not double your speed the same way raw vector addition would mathematically.
