'''Elevators''' were introduced in ''[[The Sims 2: Open for Business]]'', ''[[The Sims 2: Apartment Life]]'', ''[[The Sims 3: Late Night]]'',<ref name="available">[https://twitter.com/TheSims3/status/19862430014 Tweet] ''@TheSims3 will there be elevators?!! @eduardog3000 Yes!''</ref> ''[[The Sims 3: Into the Future]]'', and ''[[The Sims 4: City Living]]'' and ''[[The Sims 4: Discover University]]''. They allow quick travel between floors. In ''The Sims 2'' and ''The Sims 3'', they can also be used for [[WooHoo]].
 
Elevators can be purchased in [[build mode]] for any lot.{{Vgversion|TS2:OFB}}{{Vgversion|TS2:AL}}{{Vgversion|TS3:LN}}{{Vgversion|TS3:ITF}} With the exception of ''The Sims 4'', only elevators added in a vertical "elevator shaft" will be usable, so all elevators in a particular shaft must be above or below the others in the same shaft.
Line 113:
}}The '''Deco Elevator''' can be found in [[penthouse]]s, although they can be placed on regular residential lots as well. They have a 2x2 footprint, with a 2x2 square in front of the doors being reserved. There should be at least three additional tiles in front of this square to give Sims room to route to the elevator. Elevators need to be placed on flooring or on empty terrain, and the doors need to be placed over a wall. Like ''The Sims 2'', elevator doors can face any direction, provided that they are all on the same shaft. Individual elevators can be recolored and retextured with the [[Create a Style]] tool. Players can use elevator shafts instead of doors to skip floors.
 
Elevators function similarly to those in ''The Sims 2'', with a number of changes. Elevators can be used by multiple Sims at a time, and players can direct Sims to go to any floor from any door. AnWhen an elevator is  used, it is automatically called oncewhen the Sim enters the room it's is in. Elevators do not appear to have a capacity limit; Sims will simply teleport in and out of the elevator if it is crowded. Sims may get stuck between the doors while exiting; the chances of this happening are increased for Sims who have the [[Clumsy (The Sims 3)|clumsy]] or [[unlucky]] traits. Elevators will play neighborhood and build mode music from ''[[The Sims]]'' when used.

Tube elevators were introduced in ''[[The Sims 3: Into the Future|Into the Future]]''. They have a 1x1 footprint, with the space in front of the tube being reserved, and can only be used by one Sim at a time. Using them increases the [[Advanced Technology]] skill, and Sims with higher Advanced Technology skill are more adept at using them.

Elevators returnedreturn in ''[[The Sims 4: City Living]]'' and ''[[The Sims 4: Discover University]]''. They can only be placed in [[penthouse]]s, and only one can be placed per lot.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6KXCNTxTApk</ref> Unlike previous games, they do not have any unique elevator animations and are used solely to travel between floors.<ref>http://simsvip.com/2016/10/24/the-sims-4-city-living-simgurugrants-answers-on-subways-and-elevators/</ref>
 
Elevators do not need to be surrounded by a wall, and they do not need to be placed in a shaft in order to function.<ref>https://youtu.be/EZazTcpPvAE?t=243</ref>
