It would be nice to have a *bounce world* right at the top of the list, that
is alwasy closed but usuable for bouncing ... this would be helpful in that
we'd know where the world is (at the top ... say it's called .Bounce.
note periods before and after) and that it's used exclusively for bouncing
thus needs no objects or GZ, etc. It would save us from *looking for a
closed world* for one thing and also from bouncing off of private worlds in
which if you use that world too often it's thought you are trying to
*invade* :o/

As it is now I bounce offa aw3d worlds that are closed but I hafta scroll
down the list to find them. It would be nice to have such a world right at
the top and for that sole purpose!

Hugzzz if you can get that done chrispeg :o}

Better yet, how about a refresh button, so that you don't have to bounce out
of the world at all.

I always bounce to a non existing world, works too.
So, just go to the menu Teleport, To.. and fill in some random letters
in the world field and press enter.

Or just add this to your teleport.txt

Bounce 00.00N 00.00W 0.00a 0:Bounce

Personally, I just lower my vis to 30m, back up a tick, and raise it again.

The way I do it, is to select Teleport and type "Nowhere" in the world
box...

....now the day someone opens a world called "Nowhere".. guess I'd have to
change my world choice. *smirk*

I find just deleting the last letter of the world and hitting teleport
usually works.

Wow!

You guys have just given me an awesome idea for my next Metaverse Release :)

I think I can accomodate everyone here with a "refresh" type of button :)
directly accessible from aw browser :)

*giggles*

This is the geek stuff i live for ...

Looked into this bounce thing and will be incorporating the world refresh
button into our 4.1 release. Single click bouncing :) unless... of course...
AW makes this button already?

thanks to all for the idea. also will make an aw standard toolbar pack with
this bounce button for those who do not wish to use our metaverse version of
the browser :)

Let me know when you make this ... *wants one* LOL

probably going to leave that out ill after aw 4.1 is released - no point in
doing it now and then redoing it again :)

but i already figured out how to pull this off... just need to get some
graphics together and rewrite the toolbar.cfg thingy

For what it's worth I went the *edit teleports* option to a closed world ...
works great for now. I think 4.1 won't need so much bouncing, or we can hope
LOL

good point... to hell with it.

i'll look into that later

Was pulling a 30 hour shift the other day (days?) and was working on the 4.1
release of the browser (metaverse version)... after screwing around with the
toolbar for about 10 of those hours I finally figured out how to pull off
the bounce button :)

For our release it's called "world refresh" and works nicely. Calls a local
HTML page that is in two frames... one frame calls forward the teleport cgi
to a non existing world (bounce) and the top frame sends the browser back
one page after a certain amount of time so you do not lose the web page you
were browsing at the time.

For all intensive purposes this should work fine and allow single click
bouncing in AW. This will be in the 4.1 version of Metaverse and I will also
create a toolbar pack for people who do not wish to have the full version of
our browser.

Hope this helps out.
