Wooden Elevator, Elevators at all

[Abstract-Player]

Hello


In my store I found the Wooden Elevator for buy/sell. I found some Youtube videos where peoples use an elevator in Eco.. for example an electric elevator. But I cannot find any postings about elevators.. and I don't find how-to or wiki page about the elevator thingy.

I found a newsletter or dev-roadmap or something about Eco.. where they say "version 8 contains elevator". Don't know how old this news is. And I found some feature suggestion postings about the need of elevators.. from 2 years ago.

Do we have elevators in Eco or not? Why it is in my store?

I wanted to test this out and gave me one by admin command "/give elev". I was able to place it. I could dig a hole below it. But there is no cabin at all. No matter if I place it on ground or on a construction. I was digging till ground layer but it didn't helped. Then I used /fly to get below the elevator hole and found the cabin below ground layer. I was able to fly to it. I found the buttons to move up/down.. but the cabin just went up/down a few pixels. Looks that it stuck there.

How to get the elevator working ?

You've answered your own question.

Version 8 possibility reference. We are in 7.4
You had to admin yourself something in a beta version because it's not actually "included" -yet-.
Read the ECO news from devs you'll see an elevator in works with video.
If you're seeing active elevators being used. It's likely a mod, look there for this fix in the time being.

ECO Dev FB page link to said "upcoming" elevator.

It is already in the game.. because you can set it in store for sell/buy orders. Without admin. So I thought it is already a working part of the game. And the youtube elevators are about modded stuff? Bad news..

I choosed the short way to give it to me with admin tool.. just to test things out.

The news I found by Google.. was a kilometer long page.. including infos about many many older versions and also future versions of the game. So I don't know if this is up-to-date. It looks somehow written 1-2 years ago and never touched again.

Thank you for answering.
