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*...

What about ninjas?

So, you'd have stale (sometimes unfixed) content, and normal users get it
fresh, and working (or unworking as the case may be)?

This would just be an ammendment to the whole "Oh my god! I just played
marrowind, and I think AW should be just like it!!!! at !"...

Obviously your cache would refresh only those things added or changed.

Not a gamer so I wouldn't know.

Only refreshing the cache from things that have been added or change would
require a lot of the cache system to be rewritten...

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.
