Teleport routing, a parcel setting that allows you to decide whether people who use landmarks arrive at a set point or anywhere (or blocked if you so deem it fit) should be used sensibly and when it comes to setting teleport routing to a landing point, it’s a bit of an annoyance.<\/p>\n
Why would someone want teleport routing to be set to the landing point? Well they may have a build in the sky, or they may have private tenants inside a building, or they may want you to see a build from the start rather than arriving halfway through it and missing the experince, some builds are experiences that require you start at the beginning, they may want you to read the rules before entering the parcel,\u00a0so there are a number of uses for this setting.<\/p>\n
However when it comes to public sims with no start or end, or stores, setting teleport routing to the landing point can be frustrating because you can’t share a landmark with someone else and tell them to look at what’s at point x, because the landmark takes them to point y. However when it comes to ground level stores …… why do people do this?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
An example I have is from an affiliate package I’m a member of, a customer had the failed delivery problem, it happens, the owner of the affiliate franchise advises you to tell the customer to use the redelivery terminal, which is all well and good but when you land at the landmark you can’t even see a redelivery terminal, so I go to the exact point of the redelivery terminal to create a landmark to make it easier for the customer and then get an inkling that this store is going to have teleport routing set to the landing point, which it did have.<\/p>\n
So what’s likely to happen here is that the customer won’t know what the hell I’m on about. Setting your teleport routing to anywhere provides plenty of options for people to easily share locations, for example you’re going around and you see something that you feel a friend will like, but they aren’t online or they’re busy, so you send them a landmark to the exact spot, but as teleport routing isn’t set to anywhere they land at a different point and wonder what the hell you’re on about and lose patience trying to find said item.<\/p>\n
Setting teleport routing to anywhere won’t prevent someone who finds your parcel via search landing where the owner of the parcel wants them to land, but it does prevent people easily sharing landmarks to other parts of your parcel. As I said, there are use cases for setting teleport routing to the landing point, but in many cases this isn’t the best choice, setting it to anywhere provides visitors with more choice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
