Explanation: I'm creating a minigame in which you cross a different series (or a path if you will) of elevators to get to a platform directly across from one platform. When you step on "bad elevators" it should create a spike and kill the unit. When you step on the "bonus square" it should create a special effect and remove the unit.

Now the minigame does all these things, but alot of the time the triggers won't be activated unless you enter a region from a CERTAIN SIDE.

Why it doesn't work for any side is confusing me, i posted an example of ohe of the 3 different pathing setups. At the beginning of the minigame every elevator within the minigame are considered spikes, so, i need to turn off the ones i need walkable, which is what Pathing 1, 2, or 3 will do, and will also turn on its corresponding "bonus square"

The trigger below is an example of one of the 20 elevators and what it will do to kill the unit.

If anyone can take a look at these and see if they notice something i'm doing wrong, or if you need more information i'll check back soon.

i think you have to set the side of a unit entering an elevator for it to work

something about detructables - elevator walls in the trigger editor
