Im still new. Im trying to figure out how to use this command to login to a sim that has more then 1 word in its name. I can easily do something like...

-url ahern 128 128

But i cant do something like...

-url Sandbox Island 128 128

I was wandering if theres another way. When i try that last one, it doesnt move me to the new location. It just opens the map. I have tried variations like Sandbox_Island, SandboxIsland, Sandbox:Island, and Sandbox%2Island. It just isnt working. :-/

However the URI secondlife://Sandox_Island/128/128 does work when put in your favorite browser. I'm not sure that the -url command line flag uses the same code path as the URI processor. Hope that helps.

Heya Matt! Feeling motivational? ;)

Yeah as Introvert pointed out--

You can do it like this. For example, Sunset Beach (169, 69, 700) has two words in its name.
-url secondlife://Sunset_Beach/169/69/700
just as an example.

I use it myself when working on projects that make me remember to keep going to a single place at login, it's another way of setting a homepoint.
