Click was kewl but time and time again I find how
useful it wouldbe if a bot could detect it when a
anatar bumps into an object, and since I hear yall
might be putting avatar colosions in 3.0, it would
be a nice feature if bots could detect that too.

I know what yer thinking Roland... "Jeez! I just
implemented this click detect thing for ya and now
ya want bump detection?!" In response, "Yep!
Click is kewl but bump is kewler."

Plus, I was thinking... instead of scanning in
all the objects and waiting to see which object
someone clicks, could you do something like
putting "activate botalert 32413241234" in the
object you want watched and the big long number
would represent some bot code?

I wish the worlds were "sphereical"

As you know, you can walk past the end of the
world but you can't build there. I was thinking
it wouldbe cool if when you got to the edge of a
world it would show you the other side. For
example, if you walked straight east you would end
up all the way on the west side.

If ya do this roland, please don't put it in the
AW 3.0... wait till AW 3.1 because we don't wanna
wait longer than required :-)

P.S.: Merry X-mas to all

[View Quote] Well, no, not literally round. What I meant was when you get to the edge of
the world it is like you are looking at the exact opposite side, and when
you walk over the line you are at the west edge if you werre at the east
edge. No, not literally round but more like a teleport thing (bump the edge
and get teleported to the other side) except you could see over the line and
into the W side.

[View Quote] > Hmmmmm, that sounds like a very good idea.
[View Quote] Personally I don't like chat rooms. I have NEVER had a good experience in them
and it seems everyone is immature, and ts half the way they modify their text.
The only thing I would like to use to modify the chat text would be italics,
nothing else. Maybe an action thing (like "John Viper passes SomeOne a note")
but that is almost getting to chat-room-like.

Oh no no lol! without the chat what would we use... signs? I was just voting against
making AW too much like a chat room.

The only reason I would say "Go fer it!" to removing the chat text window is if they
made it possible to speak.

Hmm theres a good idea

Haha thats a kewl part of a kewl moovy

Anyway I was just comparing AW to that... we have
mouths but not really. We must hold up "signs" to
talk (referring to chat window posts ant the text
some people choose 2 have above their head.

Now, the thing I would really like in AW is a way
to literally talk. Using speech. It would make
bots interesting ... well maybe we would have to
leave the chat window in.

It would be something like "create sound" where
the farther u got from it the quieter it gets.

"What if I don't want people bothering the peace
of my world" you may ask? DUH! Just make another
world option.

also:

o special key to switch between whisper and regular text (like you are in
regular text and you press the button and it moves the cursor to whisper, you
press it again and you go back to regular text)

Anyone who uses a track pad understands the love of shortcut keys :-)

last time I tried it didn't work, besides i kinda meant so that you could do it
instead of clicking anywhere (not just moving the cursor from chat to whisper,
moving control from 3-D and chat to whisper.) If that makes sense than I have
succeeded.

Well... It was but now this NG is basically for reporting problems with the
Release version of AW 2.2, until another version comes out, then it is
mainly for that beta version, etc.

With the new "freelook" mode, that would be especially cool and useful even
if you are not a 3-D shooter fan.

While I am on the note of freelook I just thought I would mention something
cool, my friend Cybernome has an $800 3-D headset system which monitors head
movement, he said he configured it for freelook mode. I gotta get me one of
them.........

Hey how about a mouse sensitivity thing fer AW? It would be cool for both
freelook and mouse-move, cuz i like mooving thru AW 1st person shooter-style
and im running on a touchpad, it gets anoying to turn by stroking my finger
across the pad 10 times (or lifting the mouse and moving it to the other
side is just as annoying, im sure, too.)

Look at Linux. Look how successful IT is. Works better than ANYTHING Microsludge has ever made
(the only reason they cant beat Micro is cuz people are scared to go over). It is made by anyone
who wants to add to its source code.

A good starter question would be "How do I start a Usenet group?" (have been wondering that myself
for awhile)

Or, if you would rather an online board, CGI Mesage Boards are around... just gotta look fer them,
check www.perlarchive.com thats a good site

Hey I am glad the tab order was fixed in the building properties box, but in most software Shift+tab
makes it go back one control while just tab makes it go forward. I think it would be cool if
shift+tab made it go back.
