<div class="IPBDescription">Making them work</div> Ok, I've heard that it's better to use a func_door as an elevator... what do you guys suggest?

Please explain your suggestion, as my attempt at making an elevator caused it to go absolutely nowhere (I dun know how to tie the button to the lift platform...)

    use 2 buttons which trigger the door and set the door angle to "down"

    Notice the little thingy at the bottom of the func_door? This a 1 grid thick brush which is included into the func_door so the door knows where to stop.

    next play arround with:

    - move sound
    - lip (the amount which the door should protrude)
    - speed
    - damage

    And your elevator is done.

    Oh and jean. next time put this in the help forum. Cmon you know better then that <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    You don't have to do this. You could just use the Lip property.

    True but I prefer this. It is easier to control the movement of the elevator, or at least I think so <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    [edit] and textured in NULL so it wont render but still does it work
