To be able to build off line from the downloaded path that you got, and to
be able to save it! I only have 1 phone line now so i have to and get
kicked off frequntly. Maybe being able to rebuild the save as a bot.

Here's how it would work,
You build the objects,
You highlight all of the obects that you want to save
Then you goto file...save, or maybe the imaginary handy save button at the
top of the screen.

I know this would be abused so maybe it could only be used by citizens,
specifed citizens by the world owner, and/or only world owners( or anyone
that ha their ppw. It would ake it easier to back up a world too!

My 2 Cents

That would be a cool feature :) I think in 2.2 you could do that, I know
one of them you could.

This has been discussed many times before. One of the problems is what to do if the a part or all of the land has already been built on?

The land might have to be pre covered first with a certain object, maybe?

ya, it would be pre covered, like i said only if the world owner allows it
:P
didn't expect to get a response so fast, lol.

LoL yeah I'm doing some work tonight so I've got not a lot better to do :).
Maybe some sort of marker system where you set it off with 4 objects like
posts?

hmmmm... a 3D programmer I know does a great job of writing a multi-format
world builder (not for AW, more for games) has this idea of adding a feature
that would allow youtobuild the world you made in the efitor in AW,or
convert it toa propdump... his stuff is ten times better than AW's building
interface, and has more advanced possibilities...

Well, a couple things.

First things first, if there is already an object in the area that was being
built before the property was uploaded (remember, you still have to be
online for the server to cover the land you're working on), then you get a
huge chunk of your build ripped out and you have to delete it all so you can
find another spot to build in.

Secondly, seeing as how AWC can't trust people to use move and rotate in AW
(>_< just make the restricted radius bigger and get the GET to deal with the
rest!) I'd highly doubt that they'd let anyone do this in AW or Mars, or
yellow, or cofmeta, etc.

Third, your browser would have to download all of the world rights and
features list etc. to make sure that what you build can be uploaded (so you
don't have a cell on the data you're uploading that takes up too much space,
or so that you aren't using move and rotate in a world where you cant use
them).

I do like the idea though and I don't mean to flame your post. It wouldld be
similar to Pocket Outlook, you type the message and then hook your PDA up to
the computer and send it (I miss that little palmtop *sniff*). Then when
roadrunner decides to kick me off I can just go to where I was working last
and continue it.

I'd love to have an offline 3d building editor. Maybe he could add in
pre-made objects (like groups of objects to make things like vehicles,
custom furniture, etc). Would be fun :D
