** NOTE: THIS IS THE NO-COPY / TRANSFER VERSION **
The FranLift is a single-passenger elevator system with many impressive features, including:
- Moves in ANY direction (vertical, horizontal, diagonal) between assigned stops;
- Moves to any point WITHIN THE SAME REGION to which you have access, regardless of distance between stops;
- Access can be turned off, or set to allow access for group members only;
- The rider can opt to have the elevator move at “warp” speed to its destination;
- Simple design: uses one-prim “call markers” to designate where the elevator stops, and one only needs to click on the marker to call the elevator;
- Quick setup: just move the elevator to where you want it to stop, and tell it to rez a marker at that point.
In addition to the above features, the following features have been added in version 2.0:
- The elevator now has working doors. To board the elevator, click it once to open the doors, then click again to sit.
- Stop numbers no longer have to be consecutive. That is, you can have breaks in the stop number sequence. For example, your call markers can be numbered 001, 003, and 006, and it will handle all three. This also means that you can delete a stop without having to renumber all stops that follow it.
- Communication channels have been simplified to selecting a number from 1-10. Besides setting the communication channel in the settings notecard, you can now set it through the menu.
- The two settings notecards have been consolidated into a single notecard, _settings, that goes into the elevator contents. Before dropping the notecard into the elevator for the first time, make sure to check the communication channel; if you already have an elevator out, you will need to set it to a different channel number than the one already in use.
- In addition to using the call marker "<REZ>" feature, you can now manually set out and configure individual call markers, without having to reset the elevator for them to take effect.
Whenever a call marker is rezzed, whether from the elevator or manually, it will pop up a menu which will let you change the stop's name, number or communication channel; you then click ACCEPT to activate the call marker.
- You can now move and/or rotate call markers on the fly, and the elevator will keep track of the new position. Simply move it to its new position/rotation, click on it, and a menu will pop up where you can make changes, or just click ACCEPT. If you move the marker that is at the elevator's current position, the elevator will automatically move to the new position.
Please note:
* I still do not have a way to automatically provide updates. For now, I will manually send out updates to those who purchased earlier versions. If you purchased an earlier version of a product and need an update, please let me know.
* For now, elevator movement is restricted to movement within a single region.
* I am always available for product support. Just IM Francisco Koolhoven, and I will get back with you as quickly as I can.
