[BUG] Elevators and freight lifts stuck

Beacon Mag banner: Elevators and freight lifts stuck

The symptom: the elevator doesn’t offer your hangar, the freight lift won’t come back up or won’t register a delivery.

✅ Known bugs and their workarounds

Bug	Workaround
Your hangar doesn’t show on the panel	🟡 Don’t use another player’s elevator, call a fresh one (3.24)
The freight lift won’t come back up	🟡 From the kiosk, exit and re-enter several times until it kicks you out (4.8.1)
Mission freight lift doesn’t register the delivery	🟡 Always use the kiosk first
Checkmate elevators out of order	🔴 Have a plan B

Tips followed by a version number in brackets come from players, on an older patch. They may no longer work.

💡 General tip: if an elevator stays stuck, open and close your mobiGlas, step out of the car and call it again. As a last resort, a respawn will get you out.
