-----------------------
Setup
-----------------------

1.) Rez as many Doorway objects as you need, one for each floor. (Shift+drag copy along the Z-axis works best)

2.) Align them vertically as best as possible (make sure X and Y coordinates are the same). Vertical distance does not matter.

3.) [Optional] Rez the Glass Shafts to fill the space between floors.

4.) [Optional] Use SL build tools to resize the glass shaft parts individually to stretch them to fill the gaps.
Touch the Glass Shaft after resizing to make the textures auto-align properly.

5.) Finally, rez an Elevator and press the button on a doorway to initialize it.


-----------------------
How to: Multiple elevator shafts
-----------------------

The Modular Elevator Kit supports multiple elevator shafts, with each their own elevator.
Simply use the build tools to edit the Object Description field within the Elevator and the Doorway objects.
Each will have a "Group: 1" text in the description field. Change the number to mark them as distinct elevator shaft.
Remember to do this in both the Elevator and all the Doorways in the new shaft.

-----------------------
Tips
-----------------------

- After changing the position of one or more existing floors, wait about 60 seconds after which the elevator will automatically recognize the new positions.

- The elevator will automatically register newly rezzed floors and unregister deleted floors. It may take up to a minute.

-----------------------
Configuration
-----------------------

Change the name/title of the notecards in the elevator and doorway to adjust the options.
