Here is a fixed version along with some notes:

local event = require("event") --< event library needs to be requested.

local component = require("component") --< same for component
local lift = component.lift

while true do
    local e = event.pull("motion") --< Don't use system reserved variable names for your own.
    if (e == "motion") then --< This event is never false, as the 'event.pull()' is filtered => the upper action will alwayus run.
        lift.callFloor(2)
    else --< Cant be 'elseif', would need a conditon to test
        os.run(elevatormotionmanipulation)
    end
end

-- <= these things are comments, they are used to explain what code does, without affecting its execution, they can be removed without issues.

@GabelaGarlaSrl Glad to be of help, and no it's not that long script. Here is an example of a medium/large-ish-sized script: https://github.com/SpaceBeeGaming/OC-DNS/blob/master/bin/dns_server.lua (It's from my GitHub, part of a larger project)
