There is no specific elevator entity in HL1 or HL2. Elevators must be constructed from several entities.
Todo: need a tutorial article
Entities
- func_movelinear — moves along an axis between two points; useful for two-stop or multi-stop elevators
- func_tracktrain — moves between several points (See Trains); the easiest entity for multi-stop elevators
- func_door — moves between two positions and can't stop mid-way; only useful for two-stop elevators
Notes
- Doors can be attached to an elevator by parenting them to the elevator.
- Some logic entities may be required, especially for multi-stop elevators.
