Elevators and More

Elevators and More brings heavy-duty, realistic, multi-floor industrial elevators and travel utilities into Minecraft 26.3 with smooth entity movement and custom platform building!

Tired of simple instant-teleport elevators? Elevators and More lets you construct true dynamic elevator platforms with physical rails, wall call stations, onboard control pedestals, safety railings, and realistic mechanical sound effects.

🛗 Features at a Glance

• 🏗️ Custom Platform Footprint: Build platforms of any shape and size up to 49 blocks (configurable up to 121 blocks) using Industrial Elevator Floor blocks.
• 🚡 Smooth Moving Carriages: Platforms smoothly turn into physical entities while in motion with collision and camera interpolation—no jittering or clipping through the floor!
• 📶 Multi-Floor Shafts: Place Industrial Guide Rails vertically from bedrock all the way to build height (up to 384+ blocks).
• 🎛️ Elevator Control Boards (Landings):
  • Place control boards at each floor level.
  • Automatically discovers floors along the vertical shaft.
  • Includes a DOCKED indicator light so you know when the carriage is ready.
  • Call the elevator directly to your floor or send it anywhere.
  • Rename floor stops (e.g. "Deepslate Quarry", "Basement Storage", "Penthouse").
• 🕹️ Onboard Control Pedestal:
  • Install a control column right on your moving platform.
  • Select your destination floor mid-ride or slam the Emergency Stop button if something is blocking your way.
• 🚧 Industrial Safety Railings: Keep your passengers, pets, and cargo securely on the platform.
• 🔊 Atmospheric Audio: Mechanical gear sounds, motor hums, and solid iron docking clunks when arriving at a floor.

📖 Quick Start Guide

Step 1: Guide Rail Column

Place a vertical column of Industrial Guide Rails along the wall of your elevator shaft from bottom to top.

Step 2: Build the Elevator Platform

At your desired starting level, construct the floor of your platform using Industrial Elevator Floor blocks touching or adjacent to the Guide Rail. Add Industrial Safety Railings around the perimeter and place an Elevator Control Pedestal on the floor so you can operate it from inside.

Step 3: Install Floor Landing Boards

On each floor where you want the elevator to stop, mount an Elevator Control Board on the wall within 2 blocks of the platform edge.

Step 4: Configure & Ride!

Right-click your Control Board or Pedestal to open the custom GUI:

1. Rename the floor station if desired (e.g. "Floor 1 – Base").
2. Press Call Elevator Here to bring the platform to your level.
3. Step aboard, open the pedestal interface, choose your destination, and hit Go!
