VCZ Multifloor Cargo Elevator

VCZ Multifloor Cargo Elevator is a bigger elevator than my Multifloor Elevator. It can be used to transport grids, players and floating objects.

+ Remote Control Script for operation from another grid (like a vehicle approaching the elevator)
+ Has Toolbar Actions to send to each floor or to stop it.
+ Size of 5x5 width and depth giving a transport area of about 4 large blocks (20 small blocks).
+ Up to 9 floors per elevator (of course can be as little as 2).
+ Up to 200 blocks height (or 500 meters).
+ Standard Floor even with regular blocks
+ Half Floor (it's actually 2 blocks high) even with half blocks.
+ Modular construction.
+ Filler blocks up to 4 blocks tall for the space between floors.
+ A Shaft Door block (so you can close the shaft when the elevator is on another floor).
+ Entirely based on a Piston Block gives a lot of advantages like:
* You can select specific speed without having to rebuild the base;
* You can build blocks on the moving platform like seats, sensors, button panels, etc.;
* Precise stopping position AND the platform will remain where it last stopped after reload.
+ Custom sound when the elevator is moving (there will be no elevator music for this one).
+ Lights on the platform with controls for Color, Range and Intensity. Lights will also show if the platform is clear to move.
+ Lovely models created by AutoMcDonough (A couple of blocks still need a little work but they will be updated as soon as they are ready)

Elevator Base:
VCZ Cargo Elevator Piston - this is the base block which moves the platform. Can't have an elevator without it. ;)

Floor blocks:
VCZ Cargo Elevator Floor - The standard floor block for even stopping with regular blocks;
VCZ Cargo Elevator Floor Half - Double height floor block for even stopping with half blocks;

Filler blocks and Shaft Door:
VCZ Cargo Elevator Filler 1 through 4 - These are the blocks that make up the elevator shaft. They are a required block for proper operation and floor detection. They are 4 blocks ranging from 1 block high to 4 blocks high.
VCZ Cargo Elevator Shaft Door - This is the Shaft Door for closing your elevator shafts. You can place as many of these as you want but keep in mind they are automatically controlled and open ONLY when the elevator needs to pass trough. Also if they are too close next to each other the elevator will have to hold in place to wait for some of them to open.

All blocks are available in the G-Menu in a separate group called "VCZ Mod Blocks".
Also you should be able to find the Base block in the main (All Blocks) G-Menu screen. It should appear on the same line with the doors (unless you are using other mods that use the same place). All other blocks are grouped in it.

1. Start with the Elevator Base - VCZ Cargo Elevator Piston.
2. After the base is built set a slow positive speed so the platform can move up. When it has cleared enough space you can add a floor or filler block. After that set the speed back to negative values so the platform can return and you can continue building.
3. Place Fillers, Shaft Doors and Floors until you reach your top floor (or the maximum height).
4. Please, keep in mind that only 9 floors will be detected so if you continue building floors after that they will not work. The elevator will only go to the 9th floor.
5. That's it! Hop in and start riding your new elevator. ;)

If you want to change the floor you are going to while using the elevator or just want to stop it in place use the STOP button and then select your new floor.
If the elevator gets stuck for some reason and can't move, try stopping it, select a new floor in the opposite direction to where it was going and after it moves a little repeat going back in your original direction.


Varied construction components for different blocks.


The Elevator Base has a standby power consumption of 40kW and operational consumption of 1MW.


Please report any bugs you may encounter in the Bug Reports section.
I have tested it thoroughly and in various different situations but I am sure I may have missed something.
