About Elevator Saga
Your job is to write JavaScript code that controls a fleet of elevators in a simulated office building. Passengers pile up on floors, and your algorithms decide which cars move where, when doors open, and how to keep the queue from spiraling out of control. Each challenge ramps up the floor count or passenger volume, exposing every flaw in your logic.
It's a genuinely satisfying loop for anyone who enjoys programming puzzle games — you tweak a function, hit run, watch the simulation play out, and then chase down whatever bottleneck just caused a riot on floor seven. The feedback is immediate and visual, which makes debugging feel less like a chore and more like detective work. If you enjoy this style of constraint-based thinking, Launch Nonogram offers a quieter but equally methodical puzzle experience.
You only need a basic grasp of JavaScript to get started — the API is small and well-documented — but squeezing out a high efficiency score will keep experienced developers busy for hours.
How to use
• Write JavaScript code to control elevators and transport people efficiently between floors • Use the code editor at the bottom to program elevator behavior using the provided API • Click "Apply" to test your code, then click the "Start" button to run the simulation • Your goal is to complete each challenge by meeting specific requirements like transporting a certain number of people within time limits • Program elevators to respond to events like button presses and idle states using elevator.on() methods • Key functions: elevator.goToFloor() to move elevators, elevator.destinationQueue to manage stops • Monitor stats on the right side: transported people, waiting times, and efficiency metrics • Use Reset to restore default code, Save to store your progress • Speed up simulation with +/- buttons next to the time scale • People appear as icons wanting to travel between floors - minimize their waiting time • Each challenge gets progressively harder with more floors, elevators, and people to transport
