    This is impressive and pretty clean throughout, Cheddar. There remain some oddities, irrelevancies, and peculiar phrasings that an elevator would have a hard time understanding, but the bulk of the work grades well.

    A couple notes in case you’re considering revising:

    —You never have to tell an elevator to wait, period, for anything. Its default condition is inactivity.

    —your phrase “a passing floor” makes no sense to me, and I suspect to an elevator

    —I don’t see how a passing floor could request “the same direction currently moving in.” That’s just gibberish.

    —If your instructions are worded well, you should never have to tell an elevator to “repeat the process” “mentioned previously.”

    I’ll grade this post as is, Cheddar. Put it into Grade Please or back into Feedback Please following any significant improvements.
