nice usage of dark force there :)

That last bar takes a while to break for some reason though.

Where is the force used? I thought the elevator was just a little too fat and kept breaking the metal bars...

I meant when the elevator approaches a horizontal bar, it slowly stresses it to the breaking point.

As I understand it, dark force is using tensional (or stretching) forces. I'm not really clear on light force (sometimes I see them mentioned as dark or light), has something to do with compression forces?

Maybe it was just pure physics here.

Yeah it's all light forces in there.

You live in San Diego?? I live in Escondido. It's part of SD county

Dark force is exploitation of a bug that creates power from nothing.

When a node is squished between 2 materials correctly, it'll bounce from one to the other, trying to "resolve" the collisions indefinitely, creating power.

You'll hear the metal against metal sound in rapid succession.
