Elevator types

  • Hydraulic elevators:
    • Button panels have 2 columns total
    • The speed is 3ft/sec or .91 m/sec.
    • Works for 2-6 floor elevators.
  • Traction elevators:
    • Geared/MRL: 8 ft/sec or 2.44 m/sec. Currently disabled for 2 floor elevators that are next to each other.
    • Gear-less: 24 ft/sec or 7.32 m/sec. Requires a total distance of 26 to 50 floors.
    • High rise: 34 ft/sec or 10.36 m/sec. Fastest ones you can get in this creator. Requires a total distance of 51 floors or greater.
    • Button panels have 3-4 columns total depending on the fixture set.

Elevator brands

  • Current:
    • Dover: custom fixture set; textures and sounds already exist in skyscrapersim.
    • Mitsubishi ADA: requires the “Mitsubishi ADA” folder, which can be downloaded from the Gooper1 Data Pack.
    • Otis (except touch buttons) and Otis 67 textures: uses otis67 folder, which exists in most versions of skyscrapersim (excluding BENO edition and alpha 7)
    • Otis touch: custom fixture set; textures and sounds already exist in skyscrapersim. Door and alarm buttons use the otis67 folder although I may change it in the future.
    • Schindler MT: already pre installed in skyscrapersim. Uses the “MT” folder.
  • Not implemented yet:
    • Otis Europe: will require the “New Otis Elevator” folder, which can be downloaded from the Gooper1 Data Pack. Uses second generation fixtures.

    • 8x8 bank: bank of 8x8 elevators, use center speed doors
    • 8x6 bank: bank of 8x6 elevators, use single slide doors

    • 12x12 single: big elevator, has 2-speed center opening doors available on all sides

Glass Elevators

You can specify whether the elevators have a glass cab, glass doors, both of them, or neither of them. In the future I may streamline the creator to have glass depending on what side of the cab it’s on.

Stairs/Escalator editor

  • Stairs: mainly used for emergencies, can serve any range of floors.
  • Escalators: can be placed on any floor, and it goes only to the floor above it. For example, if you want it to serve floors 5-6, place the escalator on floor 5.
