Enhancement: Elevator #1707

It would be interesting to see an elevator added to NTM. The mods adding elevators in NTM are sparse, and the ones that do exist, are terrible. Thut elevators don't work that good, and the mod is almost impossible to install on 1.7. Pneumaticraft elevators are pretty janky, and can't have roofs, and the control block is not too refined. All of the good elevator mods, such as MovingElevators, are for newer versions. Through my research, it is pretty easy to say that all of the 1.7.10 elevator mods are, well, kinda ass. So it would be really great to see an elevator become a part of this mod, considering the skill that you developers obviously have making things in this mod. I am actually requesting this, as I am making an underground structure to be accessed by elevator, but, no mods suffice. So, adding elevators to NTM would be a good idea, considering the lame ways of vertical transport in minecraft.

Elevators are sort of planned, I kind of want one of those large hydraulic cargo elevators for a structure I was considering, but all of that's currently low priority.

I understand, any elevator is better than no elevators after all. You could definitely look into Half-Life for elevators, I know there were some pretty interesting moving parts. You might be able to talk to the developer of thut's elevators, as he used to mess around with elevators a while ago, the 1.11 version was much better (the 1.7 one is terrible). but the modularity and the basics are really well done in the newer versions, so maybe it is worth asking if you ever decide to make an elevator in the mod.
