This is a wish that would replace the need to go and get seedbots or what
ever has seeding capabilities to place an object in a distant area. It would
involve going to a seed range. An area out in the world set aside that has
some seed objects. You would go to this seed area click an object and it
would be attached to your avatar as a small box that holds the object then
you right click an open area and click drop object and it would place it in
front of you as the object you got at the seed area. The seed area wouldn't
have to be special just the objects people can click to get. The seed
objects could be determined by add a box to the world settings that would be
like:
__________________________________
Valid Seed Objects: |__________________________________|
These objects could have extra actions and descriptions attached to them.
Like say I click on the seed object and it has create color red, and
activate url www.activeworlds.com these object would then have a special
paper looking thing on the box attached to your avatar. It made be hard to
do but would be nice to see in aw3. The box could be customised by adding a
custom box.rwx to the Object path and then the box would look like the owner
wants.

Why not just add a seedbot into the aw browser so we wouldnt hafta be
teleporting around to grab an object. would be much easier to integrate an
object generation feature into the browser. just have it transmit an object
generation signal to the server (also done when you copy an object) for your
cooridnates. simple as that. and would be much easier on us who keep forgetting
our own priv passwords.

That may be a better idea but it would mean adding more code to the browser
and what not. Altough my idea just a way of animating your idea. I prefer
realism in virtual reality
