It is a pain sometimes to close SL and restart it when it gets laggy and un responsive or disconnected from the network.

I think a reconnection feature either user selected or auto reconnect on disconnection would be great.

Also a button/menu option to reset the client running state when it gets bogged down, or if there is troubles like massive lag, ghost deletes, unresponsive.

Thoughts ideas suggestions?

Disconnect w/out Exit & reconnect buttons would be awesome -- assuming we don't lose our chat history and IM windows...

An auto-reconnect option would totally defeat the "you've been logged out due to inactivity" dealie tho, so I doubt we'll get that.

Oh yes, I definately like this idea if we can save our chat history, IM's, scripting window states, etc... it would make alot of users happier (including me! :D ).

The logged out due to inactivity could override the auto reconnect. But otherwise if your flying or scripting (not saved the script yet) and the sim crashes. It would be great for it to nicely reconnect you and maybe send you to another sim.
