When I click on Help at the top of the screen and then click on About Second Life... in the pulldown I get the following info:
Second Life 1.18.2 (1) Sep 19 2007 12:44:21 (Second Life Release)
You are at 259750.0, 233306.0, 58.3 in Qinglong located at sim3351.agni.lindenlab.com (64.129.45.116:13006)
The Release info in the first line seems accurate, but the "You are at" info beginning at the third line seems really strange. I am in "Qinglong at 166, 90, 58". My actual location doesn't seem to relate in any way to the info provided with About Second Life...
Can one of you kind people explain what it really means?

The first three numbers are an x,y,z coordinate system for the whole grid, they're global coords and not sim coords. |

Can one of you kind people explain what it really means? 259750.0, 233306.0, 58.3 - your coordinates in the world map 166.x, 90.x, 58.x - you coordinates with in the sim Divide the 'big numbers' by 256 and examine the remainders. They will be your coordinates in the sim. Your altitude is the same for both coordinate systems The server for your sim is sim3351.agni.lindenlab.com The IP is 64.129.45.116 The port number is 13006 _____________________
Maggie: We give our residents a lot of tools, to build, create, and manage their lands and objects. That flexibility also requires people to exercise judgment about when things should be used.
