Landing Point

Post by Brian Roberts »

How do I set the landing point for people entering from my world page? I set landing point in "about world" for the front gate, but when I enter from my world page I end up on the SW region.
Thanks

Hi Brian,

Please try entering with an avatar which isn't the one that belongs to the account that owns that world.

The way to do this is to set up a telehub at the desired arrival point.
  • In Firestorm, go to World > Region details, and choose the Region tab.
  • Click on the "Manage Telehub..." button.
  • Rez and keep selected a phantom, transparent prim at the desired landing point and click "Connect Telehub", then "Add Spawn".
This is how the landing point was set in Intersections, if you want to test it out.

Yes, the spawn point is relative to the telehub prim. To change this, at stage 3, rez and select a second cube, then click "Add Spawn".

It was a while ago that I set all this up so I might have omitted some details (sorry). Checking the settings on Intersections:
  • On the Estate tab of World > Region details, "Allow Direct Teleport" is unticked.
  • On the Options tab of About Land, Teleport Routing is Blocked, and a landing point is set.
You might not need to do both. I suspect the first setting is the critical one since that is (var)region-wide, while the second applies just to parcels.
