This project includes a blueprint with parameters to procedurally adjust the length of the escalator or travelator (moving platform), with parameters including Speed, Direction, Escalator (to switch between both types) and Extension (to adjust the length of them).

The blueprint is constructed using 7 different mesh modules, 3 sets of textures (9 in total) and 2 materials + 4 material instances.

For better performance, add the blueprint “BP_EscalatorManager” to the scene, to have a single Tick running all escalators.
