I'm stumped on how to go on, what the cog is suported to do is the four force field at the bottom where the elevator is at is off untill the player enters the sector that the elevator is in, then after a pause, of maybe few seconds, the force field actives, and the elevator go to the next frame which would be frame 1.

When the elevator reaches frame 1, it pauses untill the four doors above it opens completely, then the elevator go to the next frame which is frame 2. Next it pauses a bit there then head back down to frame 1. When it hit frame 1, the four doors start to close, and the elevator head on down to the bottom floor where the four force field is at.

When it reaches the bottom floor the four force field turns off and the player can eighter exit, or enter it.

Finaly there is one button at the top that calls the elevator to the top.

Now i'm stuck on how to do some of this. So can some one please help.

If your still interested...

First off, you could run all of that stuff in arrays, save some typing...

Secondly, re-explain what your trying to do, maby I could help you out.
