Upgrades
Elevators can be upgraded from the Configuration tab. Upgrades have two stages:
- Upgrade the elevator system first. The system can reach level 5. Its next upgrade costs the elevator's construction cost multiplied by its next level (for example, level 0 to 1 costs one construction cost, and level 1 to 2 costs two). Each system level also raises its base daily maintenance by one additional base-maintenance amount.
- Upgrade each car separately. A car cannot be upgraded beyond the system's current upgrade level, and each car can reach level 5. Its next upgrade costs the car construction cost multiplied by its next level.
Every car level increases that car's maximum speed and acceleration by 25% of their base values, and increases capacity by the same percentage (rounded to a whole passenger). At level 5, a fully upgraded car has 225% of its base speed, acceleration and capacity.
