Elevator stop points?

[Royal]

Any way to make them stop on certain levels, if not then these seem almost useless for multi story buildings

It even though it's connected to a foundation of the same hight as the building it doesn't meet up with the floors at all

could you theoretically cut the power to the elevator at a certain height somehow, with like a keypad and/or multiple generators?

+1 I keypad would be placeable on the elevator... maybe? (Never made any of these but i think you can do that, no?)

I'll settle for them fixing the rotation on elevator columns

Ehm, just stop the elevator when you reach the floor you want to enter? How hard can it be? You can stop it at anytime by pressing E. And each rail has the same height as one wall/pillar, they add perfectly...

They don't stop as soon as you press E there is a delay....I'd rather just go up a ladder it's more fluid and easy to use than the elevator atm

Delay in stopping, plus you have to guess time it a bit. Not the end of the world, but getting a perfect stop is not alway easy.

As for the height thing, if you are not careful, the first section can sink about half way into the floor, throwing everything off. Easy to do if your floor is on a column or inbetween columns, and the ceiling is more than 1 tile above the first placement.

I only use elevators for moving big stuff around between floors, and will use mulitple elevators if I want different stopping points. For example, I have one that goes from the bottom floor up to the aviary, 6 tiles up. From the aviary, and I have another elevator that goes up to the egg farm, 7 tiles up. For both, I actually leave the elevators at the top, as they close off the hole in the floor at the top, and paint the floor red at the bottom; reminder not to put anything in those areas.
