Note:This is a six floor elevator, However theretically can take a near unlimited nuber of floors though its best to restrict a limit that best fits to the map design

Construction

This elevator's surrounding construction fallows simililar to the MultiStop elevator tutorial, however, the elevator itself is constructed from a func_movelinear. Therefore, you will not need any pathtracks. This allows the elevator to stop exactly at each point rather than slightly above or below the intended destination.

Brush Entities

This would be the entity that will move thw player to his or her deired floor

Note:To figure the move distance, add the height of the wall height plus floor thickness (The walls were 128 tall, floors were 32 thick)

Block Damage

2000

Note:Necessary to prevent the elevator from getting jammed

Sound played when the brush starts moving

Note:Elevator_Weight_&i is not absolutly necessary but it is more for visuals

Place this at the top most floor

This is used for detecting the elevator as it passes over. It is mainly used for door control, though it can be used for indicator lights.

Note:These must be carefully Placed to allow the doors to function properly

Functional Relays

These Fuctional relays were created to reduce the number of commands when operating the elevator. More for organizational purposes. For example, rather than rewriting 6 or 12 commands in roughly 24 diferent places, we can write one command for the same 24 places.

This Locks the buttons to prevent players from retriggering while the elevator is operating.

Floor Spacific Functions

Increment F1 in a entity name to the next intended floor (That includes the commands as well)

EX. (F1_TestRelay_&i to F2_TestRelay_&i)

Note:For Every floor you intend to add, all of these entities need to be present, in that floor, for the elevator to operate correctly

This triggers the cycle instructions to get to the particular floor (Triggered by one of the two elevator buttons)
