How would I make an elevator loop up and down with While True do?
I know you can make button elevators, but is it possible to make an elevator that goes up until it hits a part, and goes down until it hits another and continues that cycle?
--I realize this would have something to do with a while true do loop, but what would the script look like? (I am sorry I am fairly new to scripting in RBX.Lua as a whole but want to create an elevator that will just contiguously loop up and down for a place.

Oh, sorry I didn't read your question so I made a bad script :P
el = Workspace.ElevatorPart -- Assume these blocks are here...
top = Workspace.Top
bottom = Workspace.Bottom
up = true
down = false
bodypos = Instance.new("BodyPosition", el)
bodypos.maxForce = Vector3.new(math.huge,math.huge,math.huge)
bodypos.position = el.Position
bodygyro = Instance.new("BodyGyro", el)
waiting = false -- you can add waiting
el.Touched:connect(
function(hit)
if hit == top then -- You can add waiting by removing all the comments before waiting in the function below
--waiting = true
down = true
up = false
--wait(2)
--waiting = false
elseif hit == bottom then
--waiting = true
up = true
down = false
--wait(2)
--waiting = false
end
end)
game:GetService("RunService").RenderStepped:connect(
function()
if up and not waiting then
bodypos.position = bodypos.position+Vector3.new(0,0.1,0)
elseif down and not waiting then
bodypos.position = bodypos.position-Vector3.new(0,0.1,0)
end
end)
Hope this script helped :)
