Escalator
Escalators are multi-block structures that move players at a faster speed than sprinting. They are mainly built to go upwards or downwards, but they can also be built horizontally to create a moving walkway.
Escalators require a pickaxe to be mined, in which case it drops itself. When mined without a pickaxe, it drops nothing. It has a hardness of 2.
