Bot base location

Revision as of 21:01, 29 October 2014

This page explains how SmartBots personal bots manage their home locations.

There are two options which control the bot's home:

The "home URL" determines the bot's actual home location.
The "login to last location" checkbox determines how your bot logs in (see below).

These options will be used by the bot in the following cases:

When your bot logs in, it acts in the following way:

The following events happen on region restart:

Your bot is forcefully logged out by SL during the region restart.
Bot tries to log back in, but SL sends them to one of the Linden's hubs.
Bot knows the actual "home URL" and keeps trying to teleport home every few minutes, until the region is back.

Thus, listing the "home URL" is very important: it helps your bot to leave Linden's hub on region restart.
