elevator block bug

Post by kamazotz »

well known fact that elevator stops when touching a block from below, unfortunately, when it hots a block from above, the rope breaks off the anchor. please fix this

for example {rope} (anchor) [any block]

{}

( ) [ ]
[le elevator]

I think this is intended behavior. It's not exactly hard to avoid hitting blocks when going up... just don't have blocks there.

think big and ul find that with a tall building, and a little bit of imagination (and wireless redstone and pistons XD) you can make an elevator that stops at certain levels

I think the whole point of the rope breaking is to force players to actually think creative ways to make it stop...

Wireless redstone already makes n story elevators painfully easy to make, wihout extra help.

Think about it this way. When it goes down and hits a block in real life the rope would just keep falling and gather atop the platform, but it hits a block going up the pulley wouldn't know to stop and keeps pulling til the rope snaps.

Seems kind of pointless when you can easily stop the elevator by applying power to the pulley.
