* 3. Elevator is currently moving towards your floor.
* a. You want to move in same direction as elevator is currently moving. Ideally we should make the elevator stop at your floor. (priority will be highest : say P3)
* b. You want to move in opposite direction as elevator is moving. (priority will be medium : say P2)
