[opensource-dev] An Idea
Hey Everybody, i had an idea. My dad used to tell me that when i had one of those i should treat it kindly, 'cause it was in a strange place. "Ha-ha," huh? Anyways, what if there was a "Random TP" button or keypress or whatever? i mean, just to make things interesting?* i don't know what kind of controls or whatever might make it more (or less) practical, but i think it would be a pretty cool thing. i know i'd try it lots. Well, as soon as i get my computer fixed, anyway. Y'all rock! - AK * Some things i can think of might be: 1) to a place with more (less) than X avis there, 2) from the list of Linden Prize winners, 3) with maturity rating (not) Y, 4) dance clubs or concerts, 5) language(s) being spoken Z, ...and like that. Maybe people could sign up to be on a list of destinations, or maybe some of it could just be parsed out of info we could otherwise collect ourselves if we wanted to spend a lot of time doing it. Or maybe it could just be made out of all the places that aren't trying to keep people out? ___ Policies and (un)subscribe information available here: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/OpenSource-Dev Please read the policies before posting to keep unmoderated posting privileges

A random Tp to some random grid coords will take you: - underwater - to someone's private parcel - on top of someone's banline - in range of someone's security orb - on some abandoned land - on some unused mainland most of the time. not to mention the chance to get a "You have no access to that teleport destionation" without even knowing what destinaion it was would be pretty frustrating. And then there's zindra. do you really want to randomly land in zindra? now, "take me to a random showcase destination with the same maturity rating as the parcel i'm on" would be kinda cool. "take me to a random showcase destination with the same rating, that is not yet in my tp history" would be cooler. bye, LC ___ Policies and (un)subscribe information available here: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/OpenSource-Dev Please read the policies before posting to keep unmoderated posting privileges
