Working Elevators!

[Trader]

Elevators will return to the ground floor during maintenance.

Can elevator cars be called from other floors? If you go to floor 8, and someone is waiting at floor 5, will the elevator stop and pick them up? Can elevators be set to only carry only specific groups of people, just like the doors and teleporters? Do elevators have an express mode?

[Trader]

Yes.

If an elevator is on its way down from floor 8 and a person on floor 5 wants to go down as well, the elevator will stop to pick up the person on floor 5, provided there is enough room for that player.  However, if the same player from floor 8 is wanting to go down and the player from floor 5 is wanting to go up, the elevator will go down first, and then come up to pick up that player.

The elevator itself will have no restrictions.  It will be the sliding doors in front of the elevator that control access.  Each door can be setup to for Admins & SuperAdmins, SuperAdmins only, Mini-Game, Personal, and no restriction.

What do you mean by express mode?

[Wedge]

In express mode, I would run straight to the floor I pick, ignoring calls from other players.

In other words, if an elevator is on its way down from 8, and there is a person waiting on 5, it ignores them until it drops me off where I want to go and I get off.

They do not have express mode yet, however, it sounds pretty important.

There should also be a "lock down" mode. You can guess what i mean.

Probably the same thing as maintenance.

kinda, but it just stops where ever it is, then waits for some odd seconds and then drops.

[Trader]

Express mode might be a possibility for the owner of the elevator and / or Admins and / or SuperAdmins.

no
its trader making it, not some noob.

[Trader]

I'll be adding in checks to scan the path of the elevator for bricks, terrain, interiors, etc.  I'm trying to make it hack-proof as possible.  I don't want people elevating their way out of the Bedroom or down through the Slopes.

[BattleKon001]

Will they go VERTICAL like some elevators do?
