Elevator
I know some have used a small glitch with the Bounce Web to use as a type of elevator but I was thinking, what if you could actually build one with a pulley system? Maybe use some Crude Rope, a Grass Floor, some Wood Stems, and a couple Acorn tops? I keep on having to run up and down the stairs but I would imagine an elevator pulley system could be a faster way, maybe even have it so you can pull it faster or slower. Just an idea.

Would 100% love something like this. I do have a bounce elevator since stairs are pain.

Why would they... That would be purely malicious.

Stairs are pain? Have you ever tried using ladder? I felt dying inside using that and deleted it promtly. This game is about speed and it is nice to have it there from principal point of view but it is useless. Now you maybe see where the problem with elevator comes from. Unless it is fast and I mean really FAST, nobody will actually use this when bounce elevator is like riding a rocket. Don't get be wrong, I would be happy to see real elevator and landing pad/swimming pool as well.

Let's think about this logically shall we op has a point, bc honestly how many people do you see bounce of there trampoline to go into there house. I've never seen any one do that have you I have see folks use an elevator tho. So seeing it in game would be normal that being said sure the speed is nice but it's completely unrealistic to me. So as such I don't use the silly speed buffs it's kinda a joke 🙃 😅
Also I even know some games that have both types of transportation in them not just one or the other.

I like the pulley idea.

Base pulley system would require you or a friend to manually "crank" the pulley so you can go up or down.

Upgraded pulley system would allow you to have a pet run inside a wheel that runs the system automatically when you tell it to go up or down.

+1 Pulley Elevator, actually surprised they had not already implemented something like that.

the rope thing like dying light 2 has, that would be awesome as an elevator

Yeah, or a basic lift so I can transport pallets up to my high base. Just have like a counterweight system. Like a rope attached to an acorn top full of pebblets or something.

You are using ladders wrong. If you want speed, try jump climbing. Jump>regrab>jump>regrab. It's SUPER fast. Just don't climb by holding W till you at the top.

Also, I will use a slow zipline over walking. Even if my zipline is slower and inefficient, the convenience of making the task an idle/automated one out weighs anything else. A slow elevator would still have it's place if it means you just have to set it and not have to hold down a button. That and it'd probably be cheaper and less time consuming to build than a bounce tower. So it has it's pros and cons. Pros and cons = balance. Either option is viable depending on what you are going for.

That being said, yeah a fuzz-based landing pad is 10000% needed. We get too much fuzz and nothing to do with it and trampolines aren't great as a means of getting down from a high place as it still makes you go back up.

I had trouble with that as well. I learned a trick to it. Hold the grid snapping button and looking at the floor above you. When I figured this out it's just about creating a half floor every few (like 6) stories.

FINALLY A WAY TO TRANSPORT PETS VERTICALLY!!!!!!
