When I try to create an elevator that goes from one sector to another the elevator car keeps going downward and doesn't stop at the next sector. What's wrong?

if your elevator is using a
ifvarvare
test to see if it is at the next floor, you should also use an
ifvarvarl
test or
ifvarvarg
test as the build engine will interpolate the movements of objects of things between to keep the time constant so there is no lag. This is only a suggestion. It depends on what your actual code is.

I assume your using Sector lotag 15.

1)Make sure you have atleast 1 full car hight between the floor of the upper car and the cieling of the lower car.

2)Place a SectorEffector (lotag 17) in exactly the same place in both cars. Give the hightest car SE a hitag of 1.

3)Make the SE a shade of 32 in the car that you want the evelator to start at.
