I have a multiLevel elevator and am having trouble with keeping the doors closed when i select floors 2+ floors higher than the one I'm located. Example being: If I'm on floor 1 and select floor 4, the doors will close and the elevator will begin to rise and as it passes floors 2 and 3 the doors quickly open 'n close. I use a follower to go floor to floor, with a seperate tag and follow on for each floor. I use tag sencors for the doors but now see how that logic doesn't work. If anyone can help, please comment, or message me on the PSN: KrayJackson.

Try setting up a tag system with a microchip so that when it lines up perfectly with a tag, it goes to the microchip, does a 1 second timer, and than opens. When not lined up with the tag, it's always closed. Use the same tag on every floor for this.

I just put a timer on but now my problems are that it sets the timer of right away because its sittin next to a tag on whatever floor i'm on. Do I want a seperate chip for each tag? I can't seem to see it all in my head How would it not open quik later. like if the Elevator is goin up from 1 to 3, then hits the tag on 2 and that sets off the timer and the doors in between floors 2 and 3?

Wire the tag sensor to both the timer start/stop input, and the timer reset input. If it's between floors, the timer will not run, and if it arrives at a floor, the timer resets again and starts over.

the timer doesnt reset until it hits the next tag. Therefore the doors stay open until it hits next tag. then resets doors close until timer is done.

That's just the signal for opening the doors, you need something separate for the signal to close the doors. If you just want a open/closed of where the door should be, AND the output from the timer with the tag sensor.

i have it so when i select the fllor it rests the timer. works great! but only when i select floors 2 3 and 4. it wont reset the timer when i select floor 1, even though its conected to the same XOR switch as the other floors. WTF. this is where i get real frustated...

Aside from elevator movement, you need a seperate chip. One to control the toggle on doors open or closed. This can be done by having a battery connected to holding the doors open. Just have a tag that's small and can be lined up. When the battery isn't giving it power, the doors will remain closed. Also, a selector for knowing what floor it's on may help.
