XoLift is a elevator system available on all OMM servers with the exception of Sol. XoLift provides a compact way for OMM users to move vertically through multiple floors in their creations with a simple click of a button. Unlike most other elevators, XoLift is a quick and clean teleportation without the hassle of levitation or pistons.

The Sign
When placing the sign you want to make sure that the sign is three blocks off of the ground. If the sign is not three blocks off the ground the XoLift will not work.

The Button
The button for the XoLift can be either wood or stone. When placing the button, you want to place it two blocks off of the ground, directly underneath the sign. This is what you will be pressing to move from floor to floor. Make sure that you place this button. Without the button the XoLift will not work.

Sign Format
The sign format is one of the most important steps in creating an XoLift. The sign should look like the following format: Line 1- [Lift] Line 2- (Floor Number) Line 3- (Blank) Line 4- (Floor Name)-(Optional)

Line 1
For line 1 on the sign you need to use a bracket([) before typing (Lift), after typing (Lift) you have to close the bracket(]). To do this properly you need to make sure that there are no spaces in between the brackets([]) and (Lift). Also when you type in (Lift) make sure to capitalize the (L) in (Lift), otherwise it will not work.

Line 2
For the (Floor Number) you have many options. You can make your (Floor Number) any combination of letters and numbers with a maximum limit of three characters. For example: Line 2- 123 Line 2- abc Line 2- f2f

Line 3
Make sure that this line on the sign is blank. If it is not blank, the XoLift will not work.

Line 4
Like the (Floor Number) you can make the (Floor Name) whatever you want. Unlike the (Floor Number) you are not limited to three characters and setting a (Floor Name) is optional. If you decide to name the floor, you can type all the characters that will fit into a single sign line. For example: Line 4- DuhDerpSociety Line 4- OMM Love Line 4- OMM Life Once you have set the (Floor Name) every time you arrive at that floor from another XoLift, the (Floor Name) will pop up above your health and hunger bars reading: Welcome to "(Floor Name)". If you decide to leave line 4 blank, XoLift will automatically make the (Floor Name), Floor (Floor Number). Now when you arrive at that floor it will read: Welcome to "Floor (Floor Number)"

Correct Coordinate Position
In order to properly linkup an XoLift, you need to make sure that the (x,z) coordinates of the XoLift sign are the EXACT same. You can view these coordinates by pressing F3 and standing directly in front of the sign. When you are there, read the coordinates seven lines down from the top. It should read something like this: [XYZ: -1000 / 73 / 1800] The (x) would be (-1000) and the (z) would be (1800). Once you have the (x,z) coordinates you can place another sign anywhere vertically from those coordinates. It does not matter if there are any block between the linking XoLift signs.

Sign Direction
If the signs are at the same (x,z) coordinates, it does not matter which direction they are facing. If one sign is facing towards the East, it does not matter if the other signs are facing North, West, or South. As long as the signs are at the same (x,z) coordinates, the direction of the signs do not matter.

Choosing Floors
To choose a floor on your XoLift, all you have to do is Right-Click the XoLift sign. Right-Clicking the sign will cycle through all the possible floors that you have setup correctly.

Distance From Button
When you are trying to switch between floors, the maximum distance you can be standing away from the button is four blocks. If you are any farther away than four blocks a warning will pop up above you health and hunger bars telling you that you are too far away.

No Floor
You can set up XoLift signs with no floors underneath them, however when you try to use the XoLift to get to that floor you will get a warning telling you that It could not find solid ground. This warning will also pop up if you placed the XoLift sign to high off the ground.

Obstructions
If you placed the XoLift sign too low off the ground or if you placed other blocks underneath the XoLift sign a warning will pop up above your health and hunger bars telling you that there is an obstruction keeping you from teleporting to that floor. You can have blocks underneath your Xolift sign but, there needs to be at least one open space for you to teleport to.
