I’m in the planning stages of the next set of elevator features. I won’t go into too much detail, but the elevator car will not need to have floors manually typed into the configuration notecard anymore. Provided you have your doors and controller installed and initialized, the elevator car will download the coordinates right from the doors.
The other feature is something I’m often asked about: “I’m a builder, can you sell me a full-perm elevator kit?” which I always nicely answer no to, as I don’t trust full-perm copies of my best seller floating around Second Life. Instead, I am going to create a copy/transfer builders kit, which contains scripted dummy objects that you build into your structure. Now, when someone buys an elevator, they simply rez it and all of the objects rez to where the dummy objects were – self installation! This of course means that the elevator installation is only as good as the builders positioning of the dummy objects.
Now, I know the first option is do-able, but I haven’t much researched the second one yet. With products like Rez-Foo that do similar things, I don’t see why this can’t be done.
