Talk:Elevator (Portal 2)

I know how to make an elevator but can't word it eloquently enough for everyone to understand, maybe someone can work with me here? --Persianstoner 06:13, 21 May 2011 (UTC)

Sure, just do what you can and I'll help clean up. (I really want to understand elevators anyway!) Zompist 10:36, 21 May 2011 (UTC)

I did what I could, here's the screenshots I took so you can implement them however you see fit. Ask me any questions you have I'll be checking this page, I hope I explained it well enough. EDIT: Nice revision, I changed the description for the exit elevator though since you got it wrong, you only need one "arrival_departure_transition_ents" instance, but the base and logic must be different.
