Conveyor Lift

A Conveyor Lift is a mechanism that transports items vertically. It has 6 tiers similar to conveyor belts. It cannot be used to transport anything other than items. It can be directly connected to a belt connector on machines, such as miners or constructors.

You can rotate its output direction by using mouse wheel. The input rotation is same as the building rotation. Use mouse movement to change its height - it can go up or down in increments of 1 meter. The minimum vertical distance is 4 meters and the maximum is 48 meters. Similar to conveyor belts, you can upgrade a conveyor lift in-place.

This feature was released at 30 April 2019 4pm GMT in experimental Patch 0.1.5.

Construction
The building of lift always starts with its starting point and ends with its ending point.
 * To build an upward lift, click on the floor, or snap to any existing machine, belt or splitter output. Move your mouse UPWARD to adjust the height. Use the mouse wheel to rotate the output direction then click AGAIN to confirm.
 * To build a downward lift, snap to any existing machine, belt or splitter input. Move your mouse UPWARD to adjust the height. Use the mouse wheel to rotate the output direction then click AGAIN to confirm.
 * As the lift height is limited to 48 meters, you may need to join several of them to form a longer vertical lift.

Tiers
There are currently 5 tiers of conveyor lifts available in the game:

Unreleased
There are one unreleased conveyor lift tier planned for future updates:

Trivia

 * There are flexible connectors with length 1 meter extend out at the both ends of a Conveyor Lift.
 * Once the jetpack is unlocked the player can utilise the conveyor lift to gain access to height quickly, much faster and also cheaper than using ladder: build chains of conveyor lift Mk.1, each segment should cost about 22 iron plates. You could even pull power lines on it.
