Feet Sinking Under Ground

I have a skybox... whenever my avatar or a visiting avatar are standing on the floor, they are actually standing *in* the floor, pretty much covering up the entire feet and part of the ankle.

Is this some strange physics issue, a problem with my floor, or is this normal?

I think the feet are fine about anywhere else.

Sit down and stand back up. Common with skyboxes.

It's a longstanding bug that hits some of us some of the time, and others of us a lot.

To fix: sit on a poseball or a piece of furniture with a scripted sit, and stand up. A short-range teleporter works too, with the advantage that you don't even need to stand up as those kick you off automatically. Just have it teleport you some very small distance.

What also seems to work is clicking the landmark that got you there a second time, you'll TP again and land with your feet on the floor this time.

Hope some of that helps :)

Ok, cool.. I kept trying to jump and land and that wasn't helping. Hope it gets fixed someday..
