* It seems that when you leave one sector to go to another, the old sector isn't actually unloaded. Try going back and forth between sectors and watch your memory usage creep up! * If an object moves between the time you initiate a download and you finish the download and populate your local VOS objects, but then stops moving, you'll see it at the old location until it makes a move. (This probably goes for all changes, but it's most obvious with avatar moves) * In general, Ter'Angreal has pretty poor error handling (network disconnections and such) and sometimes crashes, though I havne't reproduced a specific case * Someone removed the code I put in to Ter'Angreal to make sure "grabbed" objects didn't get interpolated ;) Nothing show-stopping, really. But fixing these would add some "polish." > > What is the state of the Python interface? > > Other things we could do are > * Update the manual with VIP documentation. > * Make some new worlds.

Of course this may require some a3dl plugin overhaul to support multiple loaded sectors simultaneously. Unfortunately, I haven't had much time to work on VOS in a while, and it doesn't look like i'll have much anytime soon. But I can volunteer to do a bit of bug testing now and again :) > > Then we need to do some test release builds and make sure they work. > > During and after the release I might write some short tutorials that focus on how to do > specific things, probably starting with going through how to make something in > blender, export it, and load it into a server.
