Skyscrapersim Building Creator Reloaded is a building creator made by NothingCanStopMe357 on Scratch. It is a successor to Beno Building Creator after it closed in late 2020. Like Beno Building Creator, it allows you to create custom buildings with varying floorplans on each floor and elevators with different fixture sets. The creator allows buildings to have up to 20 basements and 180 floors, a major improvement from the original Beno Building Creator which only allowed 9 basements and 63 floors. There are several remixed clones of this creator available based on different versions of this with varying degrees of changes made to the creator ranging for just visual effects to more floors available.

Elevator brands
- Current:
- Dover: custom fixture set; textures and sounds already exist in skyscrapersim.

- 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.

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.
