Startpoints

**Startpoints** are specific coordinates setup to allow users to jump to a location in a property. There is a Default Startpoint that can not be deleted or renamed. This is pre-configured by Utherverse and is set as the default entry point, however new Startpoints can be set to be default landing point by the property owner.

Click the menu list (Home Options panel) on the Corner Ring to access the Startpoint Editor panel. This panel can be made longer by clicking the Expand button  under the scrollbar.

Startpoints can be used to link up properties with specific coordinates. They can also be used to quickly port to a location within a property by the owner or by visitors using the Move To Location script.

Startpoints are part of the URL to a property. This is important to allow users to port to that location if you share the correct URL with them.

Startpoints can be Landmark enabled to that when the location is saved as a Landmark, it is able to port to to the correct coordinates.

Startpoints are color-coded:

* Grey means created.
* Yellow means that this Startpoint is is Landmark enabled.
* Green mean that this is the default Startpoint.
* Blue indicates the default Startpoint and it is Landmark enabled.

## Finding your new layout

Sometimes when you enter a newly applied layout you can only see the basic property template.

Open the Prop Editor by clicking on the down arrow icon on the Corner Ring then clicking **Prop Editor** from the list. Click the **List all props**  button to open a list of all the props used in the layout,

**Note**: If there are no props listed you will have to reapply the layout, or contact the designer of the layout.

Click a prop from the list to select it.

Take note of the coordinates. X Y and Z from the top of your Prop Editor. Write these
down on a piece of paper for later.

Click the **Create new prop**  button to add a prop.
This opens a new menu. Select the *Air Conditioner* prop from the list then click the **Create** button. Note that you can create any prop for this, but the Air Conditioner is easy to find.

You now have the Air Conditioner selected, click the **Script** tab at the top of the Prop Editor and choose **Script: Move To Location**.

Notice the  X Y and Z fields. Enter the values for **X** and **Z** that wrote down on your paper above. For **Y** add 1000 to the number you wrote down. (If you wrote 10000, enter 11000 for Y, if you wrote -500, enter 500 for Y etc.) Close the Prop Editor by pressing  the X

Click the Air Conditioner prop to teleport to the zaby/property as the layout you expect. If you do not land on a solid prop, and just keep falling, go back and chose a different prop as your basic coordinates and copy those onto your paper, then edit the coordinates on the Air Conditioner prop.

Now you are in you new layout part of your new property, you can make a new Startpoint and make it default so that when you port to your property, you land in the new area and not in the basic zaby.

## Creating a Startpoint

To ensure that you enter in the correct place in you new layout create a new Startpoint. To do this, you first have to stand in the in the new area where you want to land when you port to your property. Walk to the location where you want people to land when they enter your property and face the correct direction you want visitors to be in.

Open the Startpoint Manager by clicking the down arrow icon on the Corner Ring then clicking **Startpoint Manager** from the list.

Type a Name for your new Startpoint then click **Set**.

### Configuring your Startpoint

1. Right-click your new Startpoint and select **Set to current location**. This sets the Startpoint to where your avatar is currently standing.
2. Right-click your new Startpoint and select **Set as default entry point**. This make anyone entering the place go to that location.
3. Right-click your new Startpoint and select **Set as landmark entry point**. This ensure that anyone using a Landmark goes to this location.
4. Click the **Close** button.

### Testing your Startpoint

To test if you done all this correctly go to another location and return. You should arrive at the location you set as the Startpoint.

If you still are unable to set your Startpoint, contact the decorator/person who gave/sold/gifted you the layout, they will most likely be able to help
you set a Startpoint.

If you still are experiencing troubles with Startpoints and others are not able to help you, you can always go to: http://support.utherverse.com/ and ask for additional help or contact a tech volunteer/staff for help in game.
