Grappling Hook/Rope

No, I'm not asking for the grappling hook...I'm actually wondering how I would get something like that to work with a gravity script.
I'll post the gravity script...but just after I see what people say.

If you've ever played the game Liero, that's what I want it to be like. So if you press a button...a little red cross shows up above the players head and you can move it around a certain radius. So it's like above the players head about 3 tiles and you can move it 180 degrees each side but not below.
When you fire...it fires a rope...I'm just using the mace chain for now into the direction which the cross was facing and it pulls the player up. The player stays on the rope (they would look like their stuck on the roof) until they fire the weapon again.

I've had a look at the grappling hook script and I can only do some bits but not all.
Could you please help me.

BTW Free PW scripting

what do you mean by 'with gravity'
why not just slow down the shoot speed?

I can make it so it pulls the character up but the problem is I want it to use a radius and all the extra stuff for extra effect.
I'm very hopeless at mathematics and I don't understand all this cos, tan, sin stuff.

Ok I've never used cos or sin, but aren't they cosign and sign? If not, what are they, and how the hell do you use them!?

[Shard_IceFire]

oops! lol that's what I meant, cosine and sine

I'd be able to understand it if someone could give me a working example of something revolving around the player. *Knudge* *Knudge* *wink * *wink *
I can work it from there.
The only script I've found is from that scripter bible thing...but it doesn't work even if you call everything and set the right values to all the variables.
And yes...I may need to study my text book

I've got the gravity stuff...and I can work on the swinging.
Oh...I just got it working too...Now how would I make it so that when I press up...it goes in the direction which the angle is?
