[This mod aims to create an immersive chairlift that takes the player all the way up the 7,000 steps to High Hrothgar from the bottom of Ivarstead. The mod is currently in Alpha and still has more work to be done, though I'm looking for help with a few things for those savvy enough.]
The Snow Ghost Express came into commission after an adventurer had acquired an old blueprint salvaged from Dwemer ruins. A revolutionary steam driven marvel, it is said the Snow Ghost runs purely on high pressured steam extracted from far beneath the land. The chair lift has been well received among the locals of Ivarstead, in spite of the churning sound of gears now ever present. Many of the locals appreciate the safer method of travel, no longer having to worry about mountain wolves or trolls lurking behind every corner. The Snow Ghost Express has also made delivering supplies to the Graybeards an easier task as well. It's unclear as to who funded the project, some say a generous stranger paid for its construction, others say the High King approved it. Needless to say, it's been a welcoming addition to the small village of Ivarstead.
Notes and help:
*I recommend swapping to first person view until I can get a chair to move with the player. As it stands right now, the player is in the sitting position but floating. Also don't press E (interact) until you have stopped moving at the end of the ride. Doing so prematurely will cause you to go into a moving free fall.
*I added a chain to fit in-between the pylons, as the chain was static it looked really bad though so I removed them. Funnily enough, having no chain improves the sense of movement. Open to ideas on how to solve this.
*Not sure If I could get this to work with followers, It was tricky enough getting the player in the right place. Until the players' experience is fully complete I won't focus on follower integration.
*Currently the water wheel is turning in the opposite direction of the players movement. I didn't realise this until I had placed everything and moving all the triggers and scripts doesn't bode well in the creation kit. So again, if anyone taking a look at the Water Wheel could reverse the rotation (I imagine it's a numeric value somewhere?) I'd appreciate it.
