How to install on your own ship:

1. Add the floor modules, aligned vertically, with top and bottom modules being the topmost and lowest floors.
2. Edit the memory component value of "Floor Number" to match the floor numbers. The topmost floor is 1, and the bottom floor is the highest number.
3. Extend the hull sections of the top floor all the way to the bottom floor. Make sure to select the side facing away from the shaft to not modify the inner hull location.
4. Modify the Elevator Cabin to have the same amount of buttons as you have floors. Simply copy the Signal Check & Button and wire the signal out to the relay signal_in2, or alternatively remove buttons if you have less than 5 floors.
5. Attach "Elevator Cabin" to the top floor micro docking port.
6. Wire power into the docking ports. The cabin can work for around 5 minutes without electricity, so having power on every floor is suggested.
