Detailed Notes

• Elevator Basics

  Elevators are faster than stairs and preferred for efficiency. Elevator entrance must face conveyor belt direction. Rotate elevator entrance toward belt.
• Shaft Placement

  Elevator shaft goes above entrance. Place hoppers at elevator exits. Elevator needs entrance at bottom AND top - don't miss the line when building.
• Tree Blocking

  Trees block elevator placement. Remove trees that block intended elevator locations. Plan elevator placement around existing terrain.
• Multi-Elevator

  Multiple elevators needed when many whiskers travel same route. Place elevators for different purposes: resource transport, whisker movement, heater access.
• Conveyor Integration

  Place elevators near conveyor belt routes. Elevator entrance should face belt direction. Hoppers at exits improve resource flow.
• Space Saving

  Use elevators to save space on small islands. Elevators allow vertical building and underground access without sacrificing surface area.
• Heater Access

  Can place elevator for heaters to service distant areas. Useful for winter heating of remote mining outposts.
• Efficiency

  Elevator is faster than stairs and 'more cute'. For high facilities blocked by trees, elevators provide alternative access.
