I think the elevator should move somewhat faster.
I dunno, I set one that had a relatively long shaft and it took ages to go from the lowest to the uppest floor.

Away from this, it's epic, it'll hardly ever leave my CC folder, and I really like when you set it's AI to "Return" and it actually returns!

Suggestions
-Different types of elevators
*Normal
*Fast
*Explosive (Trap time)
*Huge (Carry's craft) :D -I Don't expect this to be made-

-Destroyable winch
*Best way to have the elevator fall
*Cheap way is to have the elevator get stuck

-More modules

Nah, it only needs one that moves sideways and vertically also, so we can make complex tunnels for the elevator.

and no the lift rope can't be cuted exept with some lua magic of coruse

Sparkle magic can't do that,i'm fairly sure only if the rope was an actor,wich would lag horribly and kill lots of other actors

Actually, the rope is already generated via Lua(particle spawns), so it wouldn't be too hard.

If your only brain is a unit that walks around like a brain bot (Behemoth, etc) and you stick it in an elevator, you lose. Word of caution.

You can change the speed of the lift just edit the lua speed value;

local speed = 2; -- Speed of the lift in pixels, 2 is default - (moves 2 pixel at a time)

Also yeah we made a actor motor that if shot the lifts drops in the final version we are still working on.


When we release the final version you can change speed by using the left and right keys and I have optimized the cable 700 - 900%? e.g. if the cable was 199 pixels long it would take 199 pixels to display the cable, now its take 28! I Should have done it in the first place but yeah lazy..

That's because the activity maker forgot to check for crafts.

Lol. Simply lol.
A CPU actor came into the lift, I opened it, absorbed it, went like to the middle of the shaft and scuttled the lift. To my surprise, the actor changed teams to my team.
Brainwashing lift?

Can you fix the bug that makes it lag when you are near the bottom?

This is a great mod and all but is there anyway to increase the speed of the Lifts because its kinda slow.

If you open the Lift Lua file one of the variables is clearly labeled as the modifier for the lift speed in pixels. By default it's 2. Higher number = more pixels traveled at a time = faster lift.
