hello, can you make smaller physical size armor plates?
we need them to hide the gaps from hinges..
Fvracer_x Aug 11, 2021 @ 6:39pm 
Excellent news, thanks again Digi! :steamhappy:
Digi  [author] Aug 11, 2021 @ 6:37pm 
Ah, that little detail with building it by hand did help me find it, the construction model for some reason no longer has proper colliders and it leaks into the finished block, until world reload.

Updated with a fix.

Also I think the my 4 smaller collider catwalks are unnecessary now, the vanilla ones also can be used in tight spaces, I should probably hide them or something...

One more, let me know if you would like the log.

Apologies Digi, please see below:

Note: This is a new Survival world, only the single mod and I could only reproduce the issue by building the block as opposed to placing it with Creative tools (when placed with creative it seems to work).

Thanks again for all your great mods and hard work! :steamthumbsup:
Digi  [author] Aug 11, 2021 @ 2:56pm 
I need some details guys, some way to replicate it, just pitching in to say you have it doesn't help when I can't get it myself, meaning I don't know if whatever I try fixes it.
See my previous comment.

Solid block here too. I'm bummed, I like this mod.:steamfacepalm:
Boss Jul 21, 2021 @ 1:24am 
Same issue, mine is acting like a solid block as well
defe Jun 30, 2021 @ 12:51am 
yes; first time i installed on coop surv, it was acting as a solid block , but after deleting the block and rebuildin, it behave as it should
Digi  [author] Jun 5, 2021 @ 9:37am 
Hm, and if you try it in a new empty world with just this mod does it still do that?
And while there, can you go in F11 menu and enable debug draw and re-enable physics draw and post a screenshot?
McGarnagle Jun 4, 2021 @ 6:49pm 
Also had the issue of acting like a solid block. Lowered the elevator and stood on top in midair
Digi  [author] May 23, 2021 @ 3:29am 
They're fine here :}
Anex May 23, 2021 @ 2:22am 
I cant get on the pad itself, its like there is an invisible block there.
Digi  [author] Aug 24, 2020 @ 12:39am 
There are some scripted elevator mods that probably can go infinitely high.
Kevin Starwaster Aug 23, 2020 @ 1:06pm 
So, what do you do if you have more than four decks you want serviced by elevators? Are there any elevator mods that could handle situations with lots of decks?
Johannes_7k75 Jul 14, 2020 @ 4:42am 
Can you make the elevator button as a block as opposed to that of the new DLC?:lunar2019wavingpig:
Digi  [author] May 3, 2020 @ 9:56am 
Yeah I used the wrong texture =) fixed now.
jkat718 Apr 26, 2020 @ 2:04am 
Thank you *so* much for updating the textures for this to the new catwalks ones! I love this mod, and I'm glad you're keeping it alive. Slight issue though: the edges of the pads are different than the catwalk ones, for some reason.

Screenshot for reference:

IDK if this has to do with the bounding box being different, but in case they're supposed to be exact matches, I thought I'd let you know. TBH, It's kinda helpful for me to be able to tell the two apart.
Netherspark Mar 31, 2020 @ 8:55pm 
Any chance you could make a verison that's just the button pedastal, without the catwalk?
Digi  [author] Mar 26, 2020 @ 12:27pm 
Can you post your SpaceEngineers.log after you've crashed.
It's likely the random audio crash which isn't tied to any mod.
defe Mar 25, 2020 @ 6:01pm 
could anybody help me? this block seems to crash the client side only, in DS. maybe incomatibility with another modd?
Subaru Natsuki Mar 22, 2020 @ 6:20pm 
Small problem, the fact that when i use it as a elevator it gets stuck.
Dirzylene Sep 27, 2018 @ 12:00am 
Digi. Is it possible for You to upload a previsious version, with classic models?
Digi  [author] Aug 13, 2018 @ 6:51pm 
Updated models, icons and build components to match the vanilla counterparts :}
Icebird Aug 13, 2018 @ 10:23am 
Thanks to your mod, I made this elevator:

Icebird Aug 13, 2018 @ 2:19am 
Very nice work, but I note the same problem as others, the buttons don't appear if object detail is not set to high. Since by default the game is set at medium, most players who interacted with my elevator mentionned the problem.
Danielczech Jul 19, 2018 @ 1:07pm 
Thanks bro...
infal Jun 7, 2018 @ 4:15pm 
Works really well, thanks for making
EddyMark May 26, 2018 @ 5:19pm 
Não consigo configurar, aqui fica Empty no painel e nada!
Θ May 6, 2018 @ 9:09pm 
yes its do that for me too
Angius Feb 2, 2018 @ 9:06pm 
Buttons are broken for me as well. They function normally, but they don't show.
SaltySeabisc Nov 4, 2017 @ 9:46am 
Is there a chance that the current catwalk block models will be applied to this mod? Right now this mod is still the only way to get large moving playforms working without having constant block collisions.
Digi  [author] Jul 9, 2017 @ 5:18am 
They vanish as you get close? O.o Can you make a video of that or 2 screenshots or something. It doesn't happen to me.
Dark_453 Jul 9, 2017 @ 12:59am 
Digi, Any chance you could fix the button? - They seem to be missing for me. its like they are there but as you get closer. disapear. I have check this on 2 diffrent pcs with Fresh world and Fresh installed of the mod/game. with ONLY this mod running. (also had a friend Reproduce it) Only noticed since last 2 patchs, (oonly been back to SE for 3 weeks). after 5months off.
AprilsRealm Jun 22, 2017 @ 2:49pm 
how'd you make that merged piston elevator? when i try the piston heads spaz out and end up completely misaligned
Digi  [author] May 31, 2017 @ 11:40am 
It never had textures.

Check your model detail setting in graphics, it should be high unless your GPU really can't handle lots polygons that well (not this mod tho, the vanilla models are quite poly heavy).

Also the LOD ranges set in the model seem to be completely suggestive, the game shows lower detail models at closer ranges for some reason even at high setting.
Nemora May 31, 2017 @ 9:56am 
Absolutely love this mod, but since the last update it seems to have lost its Textures? I can still color it, but is just a large plate. Could you update this mod so the Elevator plates look like vanilla catwalk plates?
Showdown Samurai Sam May 8, 2017 @ 2:05pm 
oh "perfect for placing on pistons to use for elevators."
Showdown Samurai Sam May 8, 2017 @ 2:04pm 
@Guns Man - yeah how do we use this
Sc0ut Apr 12, 2017 @ 2:04pm 
How the fuck do i use this
starmind Feb 15, 2017 @ 12:28am 
Hello this is a MUST HAVE!!! I tried on vanilla lots of things and only finish with exploding piston head and sub orbital cannon... with this Mod i could finally have a more realist "cabin".

By the way could you add parts :
- Single Button - Block of buttons
- Half Wall
So we could create then a sort of cabin on planet to avoid people falling from 20 or 30 metters untill lift stop to safe place :p
Hadrac Oct 4, 2016 @ 11:05pm 
Hey, I installed it on my server and the game seems to load it, but I can't find it in the g-menu?
Angel Sep 8, 2016 @ 1:43pm 
Hi there, would you please make a blockversion of the one buton catwalk without the catwalk? I searching for a mod that adds only a small one button pillar to the game and without the catwalk it would fit in perfectly.You would make my dream come true :-)
calgorn Jul 26, 2016 @ 3:05pm 
Makes for a nice layout when creating an elevator. Used it to create a vehicle elevator for our mountain base but there seems to be a bug with the normal catwalk pieces. The vehicle begins sliding to the side and wont stop.
BobGrey Feb 27, 2016 @ 7:14pm 
I think I am using 1.188 or so
[TLS] Commander A9 Feb 27, 2016 @ 6:33pm 
Okay; I'll make a note of that and see what I can do. I think I figured out my issue.
Digi  [author] Feb 27, 2016 @ 3:16pm 
@bobgrey1997
Well it seems to have issues inside the game code, something that I don't see how I can affect or even fix from my end.

You also seem to have it extracted, I assume for playing offline or something... are you using the latest game version ?

I can place it just fine: http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/322376165606555477/C935019E6399823058FB46F9B992140124714A5B/
BobGrey Feb 27, 2016 @ 12:02pm 
my crash log when the errors began. Where the "[username]" is, I simply replaced the actual username, which is my username on my pc, for privacy purposes.

[TLS] Commander A9 Feb 26, 2016 @ 9:21am 
I think recent changes no longer make this mod viable due to the inability to place these panels on top of pistons in close proximity to other solid blocks.

Or perhaps you can offer some tips or tricks for placing these panels near other solid block units without errors, or exploding?
