Forklift won't rise with Elevator
So my base is in the Office Sector. Specifically, its in the security office next to the ramp that leads down to the scissor lift that goes up to Far Garden Portal and the main door to Manufacturing West. I'm trying to test getting my forklift to and from my base and Manufacturing West but the locked Gate with the ramp next to the Militant Outpost won't let me pass through as it seems to block my forklift from going through it. So my only other option is to drive the main roads back to the Office Sector with an elevator leading back up to said aforementioned Main Door. Only the lift isn't recognizing my forklift and passes right through it. Therefore, I am so close to base but so far as I will then have to unload everything in the forklift crate and carry it the rest of the way.

This seems like a bug to me or does anyone know of a workaround to get my lift to where I described my base is at?

All I can say is I've taken the elevator and lifts with the forklift on my game

I've tried getting on and off of it, moving it around, pushing it, etc. Nothing works. It just phases through the lift and stays parked below. Really inconvenient.

Push the switch for elevator and immediately try to ride it.

Trying to get the Forklift to Level 3 in the Office Sector? Now that I think about it, I don't think there is a good way of doing that if the elevator blocks you, which is odd, because one of the side paths very much has ramp leading back down to Level 2, but has both a very annoying break and a basic door at the bottom. That's on top of the fact that much of Level 3 has fairly narrow corridors.

Most any place else has much wider paths and very obvious vehicle ramps, so many that are just isn't made for vehicles.

Did that and it phased out of existance. Had to go all the way back to the garage and recall it.

If you're going passed the garage from the FORGE and hit a T-Intersection with Order troops patrolling it and make a left there is a road that winds back into Office Sector. Before you exit the door to Reception where the Bean hoarding Security is sitting at there is a lift that goes up to where the injured guy is sitting up against a damaged forklift talking about finding powercells. Next to said NPC there is a doorway with a ramp leading up to another much bigger security office with a door you can control via a Controller. That is where I am trying to get to when I go out scavenging and questing. The lift below won't hold the forklift and any other attempt ends up with me having to recall it. So for now I just park it right before the lift and haul what I can into my backpack and make 2-3 trips bringing everything inside.

Huh, I should see what's up with that lift. If I'm reading that right, it is a big wide open cargo lift that should have no problems whatever ever with moving a forklift.

Edit: Seems to work just fine for me, though the physics of the Forklift going up seems to be questionable. I'm having a hard time reproducing the problem.
