# Climbing

## Basics

In order to make a surface climbable, it needs to have the tag **SurfaceToClimb** added to them. That way you only climb what you need and not everything in the player's path.

{% hint style="info" %}
You may need to add the Tag to your *Tags and Layers* if it doesn't already exist.
{% endhint %}

## Interact to Climb

If you only want to climb when the player presses a specific button, make sure it's added as a *Button Event* in **Activate Device** in the Use Devices Category.
