1) The elevator may descend beyond the stopping point, rapidly fall, or cause the player to bounce in the air and out of bounds.
- Unexpected objects can change the calculations that govern the speed and travel distance of the elevator. In particular, the location of the player's virtual hands was a major contributor to many of the reported problems. The elevator now comes to a stop if it detects any abnormal behavior and will gracefully resume normal operations once the player has adjusted their position.

4) Some players may be unable to release a ladder by returning it to its drop zone.
- This issue was triggered by climbing too quickly or attempting to move the ladder while climbing. A check was added to the code that prevents this behavior. It seems so obvious in hindsight.
5) Indicators were added to assist players seeking out important items.
