Elevator, Elevator is up or not ? Options

Elevators are very stranges for bots , as they do not see them they go " in " so nobody can catch a place in . case*.bsp have some as others maps . the most awfull is to see them jumping from it ;[ as it has not reach the level .

sometimes bots determine if they are on a lift or not by checking if the path from bottom of the lift shaft to the top actually goes through the lift entity, and says that it needs to push the button if it isn't moving.

A more sophisticated means of lift waypoints may require a new waypoint format, say that allows attachment to an entity such as a lift. I've been contemplating the idea of a dynamic waypoint that moves along side entities such as trains and lifts, that would make it easier to determine when bots should enter / exit lifts, but the path finding becomes more difficult.
