'SLFS' - Susie's Little Ferry Service

Latest News

Latest Project - Learining how to format this wiki page ----aaagh

March 2010 - The ferries are back up and running. I am testing a new boat with START/STOP Controls

FAQ's

Q What is SLFS ? A "Susie's Little Ferry Service"

   It was concieved as a safe way to see the Mainland Continents without running into "Ban Lines"

Q Where can I catch a ferry ? A At a Rez Point - touch the notecard giver at my "Ferry Bar" for the most current list

Q What are the routes ? A see below

Q What determines the speed A The speed is the best compromise I can find for allowing textures to load, objects to rez and being reasonably safe for sim crossings

Q The boat is a bit basic A As a vehicle it can only use 32 prims (and that includes passengers who count as 1 prim each)

     The simpler the vehicle the safer it is at crossing sim boundaries

Q Why does the boat seem to slow down and then jump forward A This is an illusion caused by "lag", the boat is actually moving at a constant speed

     This effect is most noticeable in areas with lots of objects (especially sculpties) or large groups of avatars.

Q. Can you let me know when you have made a new route A. Touch the subscribe-o-matic in the SL Ferry Bar to be added to the updates mailing list

      Note this does not use any of your group slots
         

Q. The route seems to be blocked A. Please put the details into a notecard and drop it on my profile (my IM's get capped).

    The mainland does change and sometimes people inadvertantly block a protected route.
