@RushaWalp If you expect mods that haven't been updated in 10 years to still work, then I wonder if your brain was ever warm to begin with.
RushaWalp 21 Sep, 2024 @ 12:41pm 
this mod is 100% bullsjit its never works and make ur brain warming up for nothing maybe an update is needed or a better tuto to make things clear

there is a better mod than this that services 9 floors
bran- 11 Jan, 2018 @ 5:15am 
looks good does not work tho can not interact with interior block and or del it
would be a good mod but need work

@whitepawrolls: just a question did you try fliping the (button/floor) I havent used this mod yet but i was just reading the comments when i saw yours. (simple thought I am sure you have tried it already)
whitepawrolls 10 Feb, 2017 @ 2:52am 
Yes. If you try to use this on a down facing piston you have to place the blocks in reverse (button/floor first then cage) and the button bloclk leaves a gap between the piston head and thetop of the box.

Thanks! I really appreciate the response:steamhappy:

@whitepawrolls: without a gap between?
Sektan  [author] 9 Feb, 2017 @ 10:52am 
@REVAN: delete only if you want deconstruct, only place main block then second from top
whitepawrolls 5 Feb, 2017 @ 5:33am 
Is there any way to make this so it works on downwards facing pistons too without a gap between? I'd love to put this on my ship as a down elevator to the ground when I land. Thank you.
LORD 29 Jan, 2017 @ 7:23am 
Or is it just broke?
LORD 29 Jan, 2017 @ 7:17am 
Maybe post a video or more detailed instructions
LORD 29 Jan, 2017 @ 7:16am 
This is a really cool idea, but I'm not sure how to get it working. I specifically don't understand the third step. I don't understand what it means by delete inside block again on the upper side first block??? What inside block? the floor and buttons? But I want those, why would I delete them? Or did u mean the entire lift cage? Because that totally makes sense :steamfacepalm:...not.
Vas 27 Aug, 2016 @ 5:39pm 
I can't figure out how to get this to work.. I don't know how to build it right I guess. I tried in creative and it just doesn't end up working.
Shroom 21 Jun, 2016 @ 1:21pm 
We know. Again, limitations of the game, not of modders' abilities.
Cuddle Time 21 Jun, 2016 @ 1:11pm 
yes, but decisions with pistons in general 100% not workers because of problems with pistons)
Shroom 21 Jun, 2016 @ 1:00pm 
There are limitations to the game engine that make this very hard to accomplish, which is why there are only a couple clever workarounds, and even those I'm not sure are stable or work well.

It's not due to a lack of modders who want to make a working elevator. The game is just limited in its current state. Minecraft has been out for years and still doesn't have elevators either.
Cuddle Time 21 Jun, 2016 @ 12:03pm 
@Shroom yes I understand this. But just there is couple of spendthrifts with elevators without these devil's pistons...
here I also hope every time that can where someone as yes could make ideal option...
Shroom 21 Jun, 2016 @ 12:01pm 
Yes, this elevator requires pistons, as does virtually every other functional elevator, as there is currently no other game mechanic to provide this functionality.
Cuddle Time 21 Jun, 2016 @ 11:46am 
Rotors too, btw
Cuddle Time 21 Jun, 2016 @ 11:44am 
@Shroom Pistons at normal multiplayer game blow up, broken off, break everything. Not its fine?
long I looked fashions, I waited for everything and I hoped that the elevator works without pistons (as some in other fashions - for example cast, "complete", like one-block)
Because long ago I looked for the beautiful, competent elevator without pistons. But I have found only on 4 blocks in length (it is beautiful but too small) and on 9 (but it is quite awful, just glass panel moving). Ideally that custom are long the elevator, assembly of blocks but working as one-block
& yeah sorry, i have BIIIG troubles with eng.

@Nefali try using full sentences if you want people to understand what you're saying and get help.
Cuddle Time 21 Jun, 2016 @ 11:00am 
why on pistons.... bugged pistons...
Pjosip 15 Jun, 2016 @ 10:34am 
For some reason when placing it in survival (tested with double-sided elevator) the interior buttons are unreachable and closing the door glitches out the cahracter untill he is forcefully pushed out of the elevator.
Blast (AKA LostAmI) 12 Apr, 2016 @ 6:03am 
So I have to use a ship welder just to get this to work, not exactly survival friendly but still one of best functioning elevators, had issues with azmuths elevator exploding for some reason it does not like 1x vertical tunnals
Rothank 12 Mar, 2016 @ 8:33am 
@Sektan we really need that 3x3 size lift cage, pretty please! :D
rabidmongoose 28 Feb, 2016 @ 10:52am 
@Crossbow use a ship welder they have larger welding radius
Wilmur 12 Feb, 2016 @ 7:13pm 
very good! but I search more bigest cage 3 x 3
Crossbow 4 Feb, 2016 @ 11:08am 
How i can weld the lift up down for the cage in survival?
Crossbow 4 Feb, 2016 @ 3:06am 
That's a nice cabin, looks good, nice work dude^^
Antinov 14 Jan, 2016 @ 4:25am 
I can't get this to work, but I think the game itself doesn't particularly want proper fully enclsoed elevators like this.
A.F.T 7 Jan, 2016 @ 1:24am 
Again working only on piston?
TheWonderer 3 Dec, 2015 @ 9:54am 
Ya not seeing how to use this at all.. So i think im just ganna get rid of it.. Tho the idea is cool
aliminater 27 Nov, 2015 @ 10:27pm 
You should make it so you can add a LCD with the buttons
Wolverine 21 Nov, 2015 @ 5:48am 
Button on inside doesnt work to open door.
JohnJohn83uk 1 Nov, 2015 @ 8:37am 
Nope not working, even trying to get rid of it in creative I cant do :-(
rew 17 Oct, 2015 @ 2:15am 
You weld the button pannel inside
JohnJohn83uk 16 Oct, 2015 @ 6:08pm 
Im having issues placing the floor, cant find the welding spot to weld it together. Annoying as hell. Does anyone know a way around this. Is there a setting that can show welding spots for blocks or something.
rew 13 Oct, 2015 @ 12:01pm 
Having a pobelm where the cage is causing the ship to continusly spin when i reopen a world or copy and paste the ship...Which is a shame because it is a really cool mod
OperationDx 30 Sep, 2015 @ 11:09am 
Placing the floor from the top can be a little bit of an issue. Still love the mod.
yobeefjerky 24 Sep, 2015 @ 12:08pm 
Sektan, would it be possible to make a brig cell, that is just 1 block in size?
DMMWolf 22 Sep, 2015 @ 5:25pm 
Sektan a concept for you, making a version of this mod that work like one of those stargate mods. Step into box A, press button B,C,D, or E, then be instantly transported to coresponding box.
Retrowave Enjoyer 20 Sep, 2015 @ 8:37am 
i just want to ask can i make an actuall elevator with pistons or what ? i mean if i use the panel inside of it
♥ Emma ♥ 13 Sep, 2015 @ 8:29am 
could you make a version of the lift cage where the direct door control panel is removed. so the door can only be controlled by the control panel / buttons / programs?
Ranos 12 Sep, 2015 @ 2:52am 
I just uploaded a mod review for this mod. I explaned(?) a little about the placeing and removing of the blocks too to help people out. The link for the video is below.

Knigga 3 Sep, 2015 @ 10:04pm 
I WAS TRYING TO FIND EXACTLY THIS FOR MONTHS! I LOVE YOU
Absolute Horizon 3 Sep, 2015 @ 8:14pm 
Also I can't seem to interact with the buttons on the lower piece while inside the lift cage, it works after you delete the cage, but then you just have floating buttons haha
Absolute Horizon 3 Sep, 2015 @ 7:58pm 
yea I can't figure out how to delete the down part in survival either, also are you supposed to be able to construct it or does it just appear when you place it because I didn't have to weld anything.
otisczech 28 Aug, 2015 @ 2:20am 
I can´t reach down part in survival
