Can I schedule the elevator?

flexsimmodel-emergency-evacuation.fsm

Hey there,
I am experimenting with the elevator for simulating emergency evacuations from a hospital.

Couple of questions have come up.
•Is there a way within the schedule tool to put the elevator out of service for a length of time, thinking of during a fire scenario or routine maintainence?
•Is there a way to only allow certain PCIs to enter the elevator and force other folks to take my mocked up stairs? I was almost thinking of making each flight of stairs a destination and force the patient track to walk down it?

Any plans to add in stairwell functionality?

Sample Model I have been playing with is attached.
