# Mantle Component ## Overview This component is used to climb obstacles. Add it directly to your character:

**Mantle High** - *Motion Warping Asset* for climbing high obstcales. **Mantle Low** - *Motion Warping Asset* for climbing low obstacles. **Settings** is a *Data Asset*, which defines the settings for climbing:

{% hint style="success" %} **Tip:** you can create Mantle Settings and Motion Warping Assets by right clicking **Create/KINEMATION/Motion Warping/** {% endhint %} * **Layer Maks:** defines the collision mask. * **Max Height:** maximum allowed height. If obstacle's height is greater than this value, climbing won't be performed. * **Low Height:** required height to use high-climbing asset. If the obstacle height is great than this value, the system will use the Climb High Asset. * **Min Height:** minimum allowed height. If obstacle's height is less than this value, climbing won't be performed. * **Max Distance:** max allowed distance between the character and obstacle. * **Capsule Radius/Height:** parameters for character capsule trace. It will be used to find the obstacle and check if the obstacle's edge has enough space to place the character. * **Sphere Edge Check Radius:** defines radius for sphere trace, which will be used to find obstales edge. * **Max Surface Incline Angle:** defines the maximum allowed surface incline angle. * **Forward Offset:** defines the forward offset from the target point. ## How does it work? To initiate an interaction, make sure to get a reference to the **MantleComponent** in your code. Then, use the **Interact** method of the **MotionWarping** component: ```csharp _warping.Interact(_mantleComponent); ``` **MantleComponent** uses 3 stages to deteremine the target obstacle point: 1. Try to find the obstacle using the **Capsule** properties and **Max Distance**. 2. Try to find the edge by using **Sphere Check** properties, max and min obstacle height properties. 3. Check if point has enough space for the character. If all steps return true, the system will begin interaction. ## Motion Waring Asset Requirements Usually climbing is about going from A to B, so make sure to have only 1 Warp Phase in your asset:
