!!IMPORTANT!! Floors must be perfectly above each other, moving them to a different X and Y location than the first floor may result in unexpected behavior!!
!!IMPORTANT!! If you have to move the floors and the elevator, Repeat step 6 on the setup process! (Resetting the elevator)
Additional note for step 5: After setting the description of the elevator, you can take it to your inventory, and re-rez it any time with that elevator id. The elevator does reset and setup everything on rez too

Note: if some floors not registering, reset the scripts in the floors, then reset the elevator

Customizing:

4a: When placing elevator shaft pieces, Notice that it has 3 seperate faces! A face for the main shaft, a face for back wall, and a face for the tops and bottoms!
It is possible to stretch these pieces on their Z axis! You can also increase, or decrease the texture repeats on the main shaft face (vertically) and the back wall face as needed to keep the texture continous!

!!IMPORTANT!! The Elevator is NOT resize friendly! Resizing the elevator results in unexpected behavior!
