Trusted managers – now able to teleport bots

Manager_Teleport_UpdateTrusted managers are now able to teleport bots in-world directly from their viewer. If your parcel only allows teleporting to a landing point this allows them to teleport bots inside the parcel.

To make your bot recognize the manager:

  1. Create new trusted manager account for manager (if one doesn’t already exist)
  2. Ask manager to teleport the bot once (will arrive at the parcel landing point)

After using the HUD the bot will remember the manager and accept further teleport commands.

Support Bot Update

Support Bot UpdateNew update for the Alive Support Bot module. You can now change the default messages for inviting users to send a support message, as well as the message that gets sent when a support query has been accepted.

Don’t know what the Support Bot is? Well with the Support Bot module you can turn your bot into a 24/7 support machine; your bot turns into 24/7 support machine with features such as:

  • accepting customers’ messages using IM
  • deliver them to your human managers
  • track the activity of your support staff
  • and more!

You can read more about the module here or purchase it from here.

“Login to last location” is a separate option

Second life bot login home optionYou may received a message from you bot recently asking to teleport it from Linden’s welcome hub.

This happened because your region has been restarted and your bot got teleported to a Linden’s hub automatically. If your bot had no “home location” URL set, it was not possible to teleport back to your region.

Thus, we’ve added the new separate checkbox to control your bot behaviour:

bot_home_settings

Checking this option makes bot to login to last location, regardless of “home URL”. In this case the “home URL” is being used when bot finds itself in a completely wrong location (e.g. Linden’s hub).

Read the documentation page to know more about this option. We are sorry if your bot teleports caused any inconvenience recently, and encourage you to review your bot’s home URL right away.
