So, there will be no swinging, I guess. Than maybe it will be more realistic to make something like this ?

EDIT: I mean, why do we need the rope ladder for in the first place? I see only two possible applications:
1) You throw a ladder down from an airship so other clonk can climb up onto it. (Good application - 100% approved)
2) You fly with a balloon onto a high floating island and throw down the ladder so other clonks can easily reach this island. (In CR you would have to build an elevator)

2 cons:
1) If we implement anchors, it can be used for climbing too (though your airship will have to stay in place while other clonks climb up - it will ruin some fun :-)
2) What about elevator? (of course, you still have to build it in order to transport lorries, cannons and such, but... do not know, really).

Alright, we can have a rope ladder. But it will consist of some static, prerendered planks with ropes coming up and down (something like I drew in the first post). And rolling out/in of a ladder will consist in adding/removing another plank (sprite).
