Hey folks,

here my try on doing a elevator

Save: http://www.mediafire.com/?r697ux0h81k0fek

Hope you like it

need to add more stuff to it, to beautify it and make it more reliable
like departure zone and what happens on lift off

just small matters though

Cool idea.

One thing that would help, sending signals vertically upwards can be accomplished like this:







with torches being redstone torches.

yeah thx, I already used this in the signal line for landing on the sec. platform
but when calling the boat, I want as less delay as possible.
As you can see it already needs enough time to come down ^^

You need a better computer... I couldn't even watch that. It was like a slideshow. Cool idea though from what I saw works well.

For that reason I added the Save-Game...
And every video is a slideshow. This one though is on 10 fps so you can see the slides better.
And I have one, but I dont think its neccessary..
But not every ppl have an upload rate with T3 or something else. Maybe you are rich, but not am I. So I tried to reduce file-size to about 10-15mb at most.

Another idea then:
Pressure plate linked to pistons, which act as the front sliding doors of the elevator. Same plate connected to boat dropper.

Thus, step on plate, half a second later (5 delays) the doors (Pistons) open. Another half a second, the boat falls.

Thus splitting one long wait into two pieces.

mh I think I could make these. I give it a try in the afternoon after university =)
Problem is, when you are leaving the elevator, you will call another boat? Thats kinda bad :-D

Does anybody know a circuit
which is build by 2x2 Stone-Pressure plate
and saves the direction where the person came from?
its quite diffi because of the delays and using RS-NOR-Latches ist quite space-robbing. Maybe someone already invented something like that?

You can make SOME allowance by forcing a 5 second delay over an AND gate after the elevator is used. While the delay is in effect, the pressure plates do nothing.

Mh I dont like timing devices. Because if someone new to it uses this, he will break it anyhow.

Maybe I should open a new Thread to search for Pro Redstoners ^^
