Mousewheel up/down binds don't work for grab zipline or climbing a rope

[intricate]

Reproduction steps
1. Bind Grab zipline to a key like mwheel up
2. Try to use mwheel up to grab a zipline

Expected
You see nothing happen when you expect to grab the zipline.
the ui correctly shows mwheel up though.

1. Unbind Jump from Space
2. Bind Jump to another key like mwheel down
3. Press mwheel down once to jump one more time to air jump and a third time to grab the rope

Expected
The third input would cause you to grab the rope


Mouse wheel binds to jump don't work for grabbing the rope and changing the Zipline bind to mousewheel up/down doesn't work at all

Also there's no way to jump or fall then grab rope without attempting to use your airjump, even if it worked on mouse wheel.
I think making grab rope and zipline both share the same bind and make the bind work on mousewheel up/down would be great.

There's also this bug which might be related, but is distinct.

Thread 'ropes input bug/inconsitency with crouch and jump buttons (likely input buffer related)'

Dec 23, 2025

buffering jump/crouch into rope grab will make you go up/down but ONLY if they are buffered, if you dont buffer but manually press it after attaching then it acts in the expected way (detaches from rope)
w and s unbound just to prove a point


nowhere does it say that crouch or jump binds have anything to do with ropes; this is an unintended behavior that results in inconsistent and janky control of movement even if you are aware of the bug

Correction, you can Jump and continue holding space to jump then grab a rope while saving your stamina, but you still can't fall off a ledge into a rope and not use your jump or airjump beforehand.
