Hi Hive,

I'm building an RPG map based around a tower with multiple levels.
I am trying to find the best way to do my transitions to upstairs. I know how to do teleport via region, my issue is the terrain or placeholder doodad to define the area. I would like a staircase model or something more visually correct, a doodad or a unit to sit on the teleport region that will make it look more legit.

Sorry If I have explained this poorly.

Basically, does anyone have a model or skin for a stair case?

Or have any better ideas?

Thanks

I'm personally sticking with the classic elevators (found in Doodads->Bridges/ramps) + adding a special effect over the unit when entering the zone.

Also you may have a look to this : Elevator Kit (simple, modular)

Thanks Swatosj,

The elevator kit is interesting.

I will try the glowing elevator pad as you have suggested for now, it will look better than just using a different terrain with floating text.

Still interested if anyone has a custom skin/model of a staircase.
