The check in the map DB for this room is annoying as hell and inaccurate. It expects you to have 0 encumbrance in order to climb the gate. I've heard of people really jacking up the mapDB by messing with this stuff, so I didn't want to make the change myself. It's Line# 30011 in the current map file (I think). This area should be changed to be more liberal on encumbrance:

if ((1-(percentencumbrance/100.0)) * Skills.to_bonus(Skills.climbing)) >= 90

Can someone make this change so this gate is less dumb? You can absolutely climb the gate with more encumbrance than allowed.

It looks like the wayto from 3264 to 3239 will need the adjustment as well.

That code doesn't actually say that you need zero encumbrance. It says that if you have zero encumbrance, you need 20 ranks of climbing. If you have 10 percent encumbrance, you need 24 ranks. 20 percent: 28 ranks. 30 percent: 35 ranks. etc. This formula is just a wild guess and certainly isn't accurate, but you do need more ranks of climbing to climb while encumbered. Unless someone wants to actually do a bunch of testing and figure out the real formula, which probably includes stats and possibly other things, then I'm not sure what the best way to fix this formula would be.
