1) Sit / Sleep seqs that stay in those positions until you move your avatar,
or click a Reset button 2) A noise alert (not via a bot) that lets the world owner know they have company, one you can turn on or off to suit your liking 3) A cache or some way to signify you are a world owner (or staff) so you don't have to keep redownloading your own world 4) A way within the AW browser to change the time of day (not via a bot), and as someone else pointed out ... according to the natural movement of the sun Just some of my *wishes*...

Only refreshing the cache from things that have been added or change would
require a lot of the cache system to be rewritten... -Joe [View Quote] ingiebeeAug 28, 2003, 5:47am
What's with the sarcasm? by the way, I've been asking for sit/sleep seq
that "held" until canceled since I joined in 1998. I still can't figure out why they haven't done it, it's stupid not to have it. As for the cache system needing to be rewritten, do it! It only gets worse as time goes on if you keep building on a faulty foundation. Heck, why waste the breath, AW doesn't ever learn..... They should just go open source, then things might work properly, but I'd hate to deal with that code.... ugh... and we don't really have a coding community.... Nah, it would die in its tracks....

Uh, if they would have taught sarcasm detection 101 in school, you would
have failed. My post was not sarcastic in the least. Also, I think the programmers have better things to do then rewrite a section of the browser that doesn't need fixing. -Joe [View Quote] |
