Scissor Lift

STOP STACKING FRAMES TO REACH THE CEILING.

A scissor lift. Drive it under the job, go up, do the job, come down.

🚧 Still under test

On a dedicated server and in single player alike, so rough edges are possible. Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

✨ What it does

You know the drill. The pipe is at the ceiling. You stack three frames, climb them, place two pieces, climb down, pull the frames, move over one, do it all again. Forty minutes for a job that takes four. Your jetpack is empty, your knees hurt, and the pipe still leaks.

Get on the lift. Drive under the pipe. Hold jump. You are at the ceiling. Fix the pipe. Roll to the next one. Done.

• 🚙 It drives like the rover. Same keys, same three batteries, but the batteries sit in a proper box on the side like a real machine and not a rover with a shelf bolted on.
• 🧍 You ride it standing, like a person. Spin around, look up, go third person, whatever you like. Step off and you land on the deck. Not on the floor next to it. Not in the airlock. On the deck.
• 📏 One kit, five sizes. The 1x gets your head to the ceiling of a normal room. The 5x puts your boots six metres up and your survival instinct somewhere behind you. Pick the size when you place it.
• 🎚️ Two speed levers. Yellow is the drive: fast, medium, slow. Orange is the platform: same three. Fast is fast. You have been warned.
• 🔄 A purple lever puts it in reverse. The back becomes the front. Stand facing where you go instead of twisting your neck like an owl.
• 🪜 Pipes on the floor? Cables? A cladding lip? A door sill? It goes over. Bumpy, but it goes. Head on, sideways, does not matter. It stops helping you climb things if the platform is up, because one of us has to think.
• 🪝 Parked it in the wrong spot? Crowbar it. You get the placement hologram back, drag it where you want, rotate keys turn it, click. The lift is there, batteries still in. Nothing falls out. No kit, no rebuild, no crying.
• ➡️ The front deck slides out 90 cm for the spot you cannot quite reach. There is a gate in the back rail and a ladder under it. Platform down, click the ladder, you are on.
• 🙇 Low ceiling? Your view ducks under it instead of showing you the inside of a block. Clear it and you stand back up.
• 🚨 It beeps when it moves and six beacons spin while it is on. Each has a lever to shut it up. There is also a horn. Nobody asked for the horn. It has one.
• 🅿️ A parked lift does not move. Lean on it, shove it, kick it, drop a furnace on it. It stays.
• ⌨️ Every key is in the game's Controls menu under Scissor Lift. Bind it your way.
• 🔧 Done with it? Hand drill. You get the kit back, batteries too.
• 💾 Save, quit, come back: the lift is where you left it, at the height you left it, deck out, gate open, levers as they were. Off in the config if you would rather it forgot.

📦 How to get it

Electronics Printer, tier two. Place the kit and the lift is there. No frame, no build steps.

🧩 Requires

Plugin (code) mod. Install BepInEx with the StationeersLaunchPad plugin first.

In multiplayer, the server and every player need Scissor Lift installed.

🙏 Thanks

The idea for this mod came from Z3bre. Thank you.
