'''Elevators''' are methods of vertical travel, going either directly up or down. In civ servers, the most prevalent type of elevator is the '''gold block elevator'''.
An '''elevator''' is a block that allows teleporting either directly upwards or downwards to another elevator. [[Civ]] servers have variously used gold blocks ([[CivRealms 2.0]], [[CivClassic 2.0]]) or lodestones ([[CivMC]]) as elevators.

[[CivRealms 2.0]] was the first [[mainline]] server to introduce elevators.

With this plugin active, all gold blocks (under certain conditions; see below) are turned into elevators. While standing on a gold block, you can left click or press shift to go down, and right click or press spacebar to go up, the exact controls will depend on which civ server you are on, some servers this can be changed within the /config command. Your "destination" must be another gold block which is in-line vertically with your current gold block. [[CivRealms 2.0]] was the first server to introduce the gold block as an elevator.

Many consecutive gold blocks may be chained vertically to create "floors". Right click or jump multiple times to go up multiple floors, and similarly for going down multiple floors.


When standing on an elevator, jump to go to the elevator above, and shift to go to the elevator below. Multiple vertically aligned elevator blocks can be used to create "floors", where jumping or sneaking multiple times transfers the player through multiple floors.
To be considered a valid elevator, a gold block must have at least 2 blocks of air above it. Signs, fence gates, or other non-solid blocks will not work, the 2 blocks must be pure air. It does not matter if the gold blocks are reinforced, and you cannot "lock" an elevator by putting it on a certain [[namelayer]] group.


To be considered valid, an elevator block must have at least 2 empty air blocks above it.
In CivMC lodestones are being used instead of gold blocks<ref>A stated by [[Wingzero]] in the CivMC Noties in the release feature summary -> https://www.reddit.com/r/CivMC/comments/v3e5pe/launch_in_6_hours_feature_summary/

An elevator is a block that allows teleporting either directly upwards or downwards to another elevator. Civ servers have variously used gold blocks (CivRealms 2.0, CivClassic 2.0) or lodestones (CivMC) as elevators.

CivRealms 2.0 was the first mainline server to introduce elevators.

Mechanics

 
A gold block being used as an elevator.

When standing on an elevator, jump to go to the elevator above, and shift to go to the elevator below. Multiple vertically aligned elevator blocks can be used to create "floors", where jumping or sneaking multiple times transfers the player through multiple floors.

To be considered valid, an elevator block must have at least 2 empty air blocks above it.

Reinforcing an elevator will not lock it to that NameLayer group. It will remain usable by all players.
