Gravity Lift Techniques

As some of you already know gravity lifts can be manipulated in interesting ways. One of these techniques for placing gravity lifts on their side is to place a weapon holder on the map. Next rotate the gravity lift into the position you want it and float it above the weapon holder and release. If done correctly the gravity lift should be floating in the position you placed it on top of the weapon holder. This method can often be used to block off areas of the map you wish to be inaccessible to players, but be sure to remember to but the gravity lifts on instant respawn if you wish them to be a permanent wall.

Another method that can used with gravity lifts is one that causes them to be placed midair. To do this you must place or float a teleporter node to where you want the gravity lift to be. Once this is done you may place the gravity lift on top of the node. Unfortunately you cannot delete the node otherwise the gravity lift would fall. You can use this method to levitate gravity lifts into positions that would normally be hard to reach or use them as a sort of "sky ladder."
