I personally really REALLY want an elevator mod.

There was one awhile back... Sadly, i could never get it to work with my world (Mindcrack)

Now i'm in Ultimate pack attempting to figure out a frame elevator. I don't care about speed.

well if you use DW20's up and down motion for his frame miner it's really quite simple just can't remember all he used off the top of my head

All of these are not comparable to IC2 Teleporters.
Just need a bit too much of energy, but no problem.

you could make a turtle into an elvator.

some simple coding should work. If I had to hazzard a try I whould use redstone on the right and left of the shaft and then power one side or the other to tell the turtle to go up and down until it found a spot with no signel as a way to select floors.

I was thinking about turtles, though they're kind of slow for long, bedrock to 195 trips. As long as you can afk for the trip though it doesn't really matter much.

Am I the only one here who actually likes Ladders? I use them all the time. I tend to be very space conscious and love just having a 1x1 hole that takes me where I need to go at a steady pace. After I get a jetpack I just make the hole 2x1. Go down the ladder and fly back up.

I remember in my old SSP world, I used Aerial Faith Plates to get from the roof of my base to the RP2 windmill/solar panel powergen facility on top of the nearby mountain. I had two of them chained so that you go onto one, then you get launched onto the other, that then launches you to the top of the mountain. I tried something similar to get over another mountain in a nearby valley, but that didn't really pan out...

Also, if you do like ladders but the wooden ladders don't fit in with the look of your factory, the vertical railcraft rails (elevator track?) are an option.

you can also use scaffolding for that all sides of scaffolding act as ladders. Wood or metal.

I use aerial faith plates, and piston that extends to catch me. If you get the timing right, it works great.

My elevator uses deployer and blockbreaker so it actually has a platform rising on a pillar, didn't want a magic floating platform and goes up and down using one button (well, one at top, one at bottom, but no separate up and down buttons). Can post a video if you want to see.

Trying to keep a "magic on surface, tech below" or "Your temple has been taken over by aliens pretending to be gods" or "Stargate, The Original Movie" feel.

Up...

and down ....

Both of which I use a lot more than I expected even with the jetpack.
