This is what I thought of that should be a very good Set up for Estate Owners

Basic Tab
-manage telehub
-Block Terraform
-Block Flying
-No Scirpts
-No Safe
-Lock Creation/No Build or Edit
-Set Transferable
-Agent Limit
-Object bonus
-Maturity
-Teleport Home (one or more users)
-Sim Message
Advanced Tab
-Set Sky limit (No Building above this limit)-- Stop sky boxs eating the prims, this will have the selected sim have a limit that is atleast 100< above the baked land
-Set Outside Void vision (Ocean,Forest,Plains,etc.)
-Terrain textures setup
-Sky Setup(effects Estate)-- ever wondered if the was green? or shows diffirent stuff like a diffirent world or like the maxtrix
-Sun/Moon Textures(effects Estate)
-water height
-High terraform limit
-mimium terraform limit
-sun/moon placement
-Bake/upload/download Raw files
-Sim Sandbox Mode Menu-- I wish there was a way to wipe pirms off a sim. like a sandbox, keeps your sim clean
--Wipe type(non-group/owner,non-owner,all,none)
--first wipe time (AM time)
--second wipe time (PM time)
--Keep List (list of people/groups that you wish not be deleted during a wipe)
---Keep Pirms or objects for selected residents
---Keep Pirms or objects for selected groups

Debug Tab
-disable scripts
-disable collisions
-disable physics
-disable sound- the end of sound spam, keeps the banana phone shut off
-etc.

Estate/Management Tab
-Estate Managers (Max 10)
-Banned groups
-Banned residents
-Allow groups
-Allow Residents
-Set Access Level-- on payment options for those high mature sims or Estates
-Management Mode(only owner and estate managers can enter the sim, Set only by Owner)
-Estate Message
-Estate Kick

all red text is Owner controls only, yep this is what it SHOULD be :P

So, to summarise the new options :
* set transferrable? (I assume that's the "land owners can resell parcels" thing?)
* terrain textures setup (any new options here?)
* sky setup (hunh? what does this do?)
* set outside void vision (good idea!)
* sun/moon textures (not urgent)
* high/minimum terraform limits (any different to existing system?)
* the sandbox options )would probably be nice for the few sims that are setup that way_
* disable chat (why do we need this?)
* banned groups hell yes!
* limit sim to owner/managers (I guess this could be useful sometimes, sure)


The big changes here seem to be :
* set void texture - nice graphics option, but it'd take some work to avoid looking tacky
* banned groups - well, obviously I'm for this, given my recent post.

There are a few I don't understand the need for, e.g. :
* disable chat
* sky setup (what does this DO?)

But yeah, useful nevertheless :)

like making the sky whatever you want to look like havign two suns or whatever, like having no sun but a moon... or having a white sky like the matrix... people any need this to have their estates or sims they want it to be...

also having the clouds the way they want them even gone :p
