Selective auto-return

I'm trying to set my group permissions and auto-return options with the following provisions:

* Class A: Objects are never auto-returned.
* Class B: Objects are auto-returned.
* Class C: Can not create objects.

Class C is not required if it presents complications.
I do not want to set anybody (other than myself) as s group or land owner.
Can this be done?

When was that auto return enchancement was made?

Huh? What enhancement?

That. As far as I know it can't be done that way.

Yeah, that's what I thought too. Was hoping I was wrong.

It's very simple. Autoreturn returns objects not set to the same group as the land. Build permissions are mutually exclusive from autoreturn. If you want anyone to be able to build on the land, just turn autoreturn on and it will get rid of their stuff after a while, unless they are part of the same group as the land and set their objects to the land's group. Otherwise, you could just limit building to the group.

Uh, that won't work. I should have mentioned that the group is (and must remain) open membership. So it must not be possible for people to defeat the process simply by joining.

turn on auto return, and turn off build
group A joins the land group, with build + Deed enabled by role
group B joins the public group, with build enabled enabled by role
group C joins a different public group
(or you can combine B and C and only assign roles to B)

you can aslo restructure it as a single land group with different roles. (allowing you to filter who has what access)
A: gets build and deed permission
B: gets build permision
C: (everyone) role gets no build permissions

or
A: gets build + deed
B: gets build
C: joins a separate group with neither

both of those variations will require periodic manual clean-up of non-deeded items.

these work because group role permissions override land settings. you can eliminate group c from most calculations if you aren't restriction access to groups
