These are all great ideas. Obviously the TerAngreal UI is incomplete. The preferences system needs a bit of work. Tetron just got it into a working state so we could use it. How about: * TerAngreal could include in its own site a "home" 3d world! This would be your private, local world. When you start TerAngreal, it could initially connect to this world. The contents of this world would be saved in a XOD file; if that file doesn't exist, it would create a minimal default that contains some text/image objects that welcome you, tell you what the default controlls are, etc. In the future, TerAngreal will have editing controls and you could modify the world. This private world could even contain 3d representations of all of the things TerAngreal uses Vobjects to store info in (e.g. your preferences are Vobjects, they could be editable in 3d)! * In the preferences you could instead opt to connect to any remote site as your startup world, or don't connect to anything. What do you think about these ideas? Also: * We need a way to configure the controls. The old TerAngreal had a pretty flexible way to do this, though the code was not the most maintainable or efficient ever (yeah, I wrote it!). I'll file this one in bugzilla since it's clearly needed.
