as there are no files to release, i doubt they have been

my comment from 2021 stands
they cant release it for others to work on, so it should be removed
The Erubian Warlord Jul 14, 2024 @ 7:07pm 
considering his comments on other mods saying he lost the source files and that others are free to update id say this has been released to public too
Eyeandan Nov 21, 2021 @ 1:07pm 
yeah, been that way for years now

dead mod
needs to be released so others can work on it
or removed

I'm standing in an invisible bucket?

Nice sinior :D

So, all the retractable mods are broken?
Cool, gotta scrap all my creations 👌

Bummer that this mod no longer works properly, the offset problem is a deal-breaker for me. Hopefully one day it'll get patched up, it was a nice elevator.
Eyeandan Sep 14, 2017 @ 10:59am 
if you use the armour ramp you can flip the elevator upside down, using the ramp to get on

it should work in a pinch till the mod is fixed (if it gets fixed)
Marc Cassin Aug 26, 2017 @ 6:15am 
Same here, walk pass through when up and kills me instantly when down :(
MikeH Aug 23, 2017 @ 9:26pm 
A little bonked? you can't even get onto it
Klip Aug 23, 2017 @ 4:55pm 
The platform collision is a little borked, but other than that it is working great. Thank you for making this.
MikeH Jul 30, 2017 @ 12:12am 
Please le me know if this gets fixed
MikeH Jul 25, 2017 @ 10:57am 
hear that Mmaster quit, but he does hangout on discord. collisipns in game are messed up
Armitage Shanks Jul 25, 2017 @ 10:37am 
Sad this mod no longer functions properly, for some reason the plaform collision is borked. It's about half a block higher than the actual platform, so you need to jump up onto it. Unusable.
MikeH Jun 28, 2017 @ 4:18am 
Pretty soon I'll have to remove this mod even though its one of my favorites. I can no longer travel between decks
MikeH Jun 26, 2017 @ 12:06pm 
Any estimate in when this mod will be fixed?
MikeH Jun 22, 2017 @ 8:07pm 
ditto like snowskijunky
zenol the soviet waffle Jun 22, 2017 @ 10:42am 
when i use this my character sits half way through it at the waist, like its half a block deep instead of being a solid glass pane. works fine apart from that one flaw.
SergeantShavedBalls Jun 13, 2017 @ 11:00am 
this is totally broken, you aren't able to walk onto it... very sad
Cynical Nerdist Apr 9, 2017 @ 8:47am 
When I use this, my character jitters when going down as if I'm jumping repeatedly. It doesn't do that in the video above. How do I get it to stop jittering?

Great mod, especially on planets. A little buggy in artificial gravity for some reason, but planets is where it's the most useful.
Sherrie Oct 28, 2016 @ 2:25pm 
After 1.153 update I walk on the elevator, and as it goes up I fall through it.....anyone have any ideas?
Firebrand Sep 15, 2016 @ 7:38am 
Probably one of the most stable elevators available. Nice work!
carlg Aug 16, 2016 @ 2:30pm 
i constantly passe through the X9 in my survival game , doesnt work
Angius Aug 11, 2016 @ 10:19am 
A small ship version, possibly? I'd love to use it for my landing craft.
Joseph Sneed Jun 6, 2016 @ 6:04pm 
Nice mod even works with small ships when clustered they bouce arond a bit but you cant lock the landing gear to the platforms and its not bad sot its not a big deal nice to finaly have something that can move unpowerd ships between hanger floors
DrNiggle May 9, 2016 @ 8:26am 
Fantastic mod, I've used it on many occasions. Unfortunately because of one of the game updates it's only usable going down; going up makes characters pass through the glass. I know it's a known issue and might not be fixable, but I can hope. I still gave it an upvote and favorited :)
GAMEtatron Apr 11, 2016 @ 10:20am 
Ah, ok I see. Well, it is always possible to use more than one elevator pad to get even higher. Just have to switch elevators along the way. That's what I do now.

You got the idea of the retractable railing just right.

The LCDs sound interesting too. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with in the future.

Thanks again for all your hard and fine work! :)
MMaster  [author] Apr 11, 2016 @ 8:19am 
@GAMEtatron it is very tedious to make mods like this with so many blocks as it takes a long time to tune the models, speeds, collision boxes and everything so it works and you need to do it for every block separately. Thats why I don't want to make any more longer versions. Originally I planned to make steel version too, but Configurable Automatic LCDs takes all my time and I have real trouble supporting all my stuff now, but I try to do what I can.
Retractable railings sound good and I will try to look into it when I will have some free time.
If I understand it correctly what you suggest is something like this:
_i <- railing that will go down into the block below
|_|

Maybe I can even make catwalk with railing that will slide down under the catwalk. But I don't want to give you false hopes I don't really know if I will be able to do it.
GAMEtatron Apr 10, 2016 @ 3:51pm 
Been playing around a bit with these today and they are a true gift to the community as far as elevators go. Too bad you don't have any plans for longer versions. Have you thought about doing a version with a solid floor instead of glass though?

Also, as you've been making a lot of stuff that retracts and lifts and so on; do you think you could make something like a walkway with retractable railings? - I find that when I create large hangar gates that retract on the floor it would often be a good idea to have railings around the opening in the floor, but they get in the way when the opening isn't there. So it would be good to have railings that dissappear into the floor.
MattLebrao Mar 16, 2016 @ 8:04am 
I found out that making gravity stronger around the elevator avoids the flickering when going down, but makes "falling trough the floor" a certain thing. I know it's not your fault. I was only wondering if it was just with me, if I had done something wrong, or if some update actually changed this.
MMaster  [author] Mar 15, 2016 @ 11:22am 
I won't be able to do anything about the character flickering .. I guess the game logic behind that changed in game. I can try to play with elevator speed to try to fix the falling through floor, but I guess the elevators will need to be really slow if it will be possible to fix it even. I will let you know what I found out / publish update.
Narvi98 Mar 15, 2016 @ 10:41am 
MAGIC!
Lord Drakonos Mar 15, 2016 @ 8:55am 
i have the same problem, few month ago, it was all functional. somebody can fix this pls?
MattLebrao Mar 6, 2016 @ 10:02am 
I have a problem. Whatever method I use to make an elevator, the character behaves weird on it. When the elevator goes down the character flickers alternating its state between falling and standing (with jetpack turned off). When it goes up the character falls trough the floor. How can I fix this? Could a mod be causing this? or a recent update? I have used elevators before and I remember they worked fine.
nobu Mar 4, 2016 @ 4:14pm 
I think it may be broken. The frame doesn't follow it.
mmille14 Mar 1, 2016 @ 7:09pm 
Cool!!
catalina Feb 2, 2016 @ 6:56pm 
hi I have found a problem. I made an elevator shaft for it to go up and down in but when I put air into it it I was pushed through the elevator
TaikoDragon Jan 23, 2016 @ 8:13pm 
The game is crashing whern I try to weld these. I was using the 6 block type specifically.
Anreth Jan 3, 2016 @ 5:48am 
Best thing ever made. I use it alot. No more wacky piston creations.
Slick Dec 20, 2015 @ 8:24pm 
hopefully there is another solution taht might be ingame idk. i'm going to try it out. from the vid it looks great. can't wait.
MMaster  [author] Dec 18, 2015 @ 12:26am 
@GrinchLiara no taller versions sorry
@Rhilianis oh well .. I guess game wasn't really ready to get elevators like this. I will try to slow them down to solve that (it helped in the past) unfortunately I think they are really slow even now but there is nothing else I can do :(
Rhilianis Dec 17, 2015 @ 10:15pm 
Unfortunately it seems that this mod doesn't quite work anymore. I always fall thru the elevator before I have ascended even 1 floor. :(
A Ghost Dec 8, 2015 @ 10:02pm 
These bad boys make a damn good table, just turn them off a little bit off the ground. Also I fall through the glass, it is unfortunate
LAJ-47FC9 Dec 3, 2015 @ 6:58pm 
Any chance of getting some taller versions of this?
aliminater Dec 2, 2015 @ 6:58pm 
thats fine I can probable add a timer to give the delay that I need.
MMaster  [author] Dec 2, 2015 @ 4:18pm 
@aliminater well. not sure what I can say. there is no class elevator in game. this is just hangar door with different model so it works just as vanilla hangar door.
aliminater Dec 2, 2015 @ 3:40pm 
I made a Elevator Script for this but for some reason the class elevator reads that it is open or closed before it reaches full length or retracts all the way down.
commander.bert Nov 1, 2015 @ 3:45pm 
sad to hear that, but the mod works again, and that's important. I like it. I use it in every station
MMaster  [author] Nov 1, 2015 @ 10:59am 
@commander.bert glad to hear that. Unfortunately the jumping when your going down is caused by the engine. I can't do anything about that as even slowing down the elevators does not help.
