Lately, I've found TPs to be hit and miss. Mostly miss when it comes to getting to skyboxes from LMs or TP scripts. I've also noticed some of my LMs are placing me some meters from where they were set as well.

It is just me, or is this happening to others?

I'm having a similer problem. I am a estate manager in 2 sims. As most of us know, a estate manager is suposed to be able to bypass landing points and telehubs, going directly to wherever they clicked in that sim.

Well since 1.12 it's not like that anymore. Now i gota TP in and arive at the telehub, and TP again to get where i need to go. I find this to be a bit of a small anoyance, and i'm not sure why Linden lab did this cuz it was fine how it was.

teleport issues

I had to delete some tp's on my property and start over. Some tp scripts were whacked with the last update. No matter how many times i tried to set in new coordinates, save, reset... I would still end up high in the sky above my desired location.

So out the sim they went and new scripts were used. Yesterday I would tp, only to keep looking at the same view for up to 6 seconds... and I would stay that way until i moved my avie. Then the new location would come into view. Today seems a little better, but still I have noticed a decline in game play since i joined. I have upgraded my pc to a killer gaming system. Only thing that i've noticed is better graphics.. I still get lag, I still get stuck, I still touch a scripted item after taking a pic and instantly crash.

After reading forums, I still know that I am not the only one.. so how could it just be my pc? I'm sick of hearing that one.

This is annoying me as well, just haven't bothered to post about it. This is what I have noticed:

Teleporting while not on my sim to my sim puts me on the landing point of the plot that I want to be on, instead of the place within the plot I want to be. As the owner of the sim I should bypass landing points.

Teleporting while on the sim, puts me exactly where I wnat to be, bypassing the landing points.

This will happen if you have focused on a spot before your avvie has moved via the teleport script. You will retain the same view until you move manually (changing what you are looking at). This is also tied to draw distance and the ability to disable the camera constraints.

I had some problems today after logging in that involved landmakrs in my invenetory that might be related to this. Once a week i go on a rento run to update all my vendors and i have them all landmarked in my inventory. Well this week i go on the run and this happens.

I open the inventory, direct it to the landmarks folder to where i have them stored, i go to activate one of them and suddenly it spams me infinity with "Landmark not found on server" or something... I bug reported it copy and pasting out of chat history.

Not only did it spam me during my entire session, but half my landmarks didn't work, and i had to manually search for their location, TP there and redo them. After doing this, i attempted to Wold-Map track a good friend of mine to see if their doing ok and none of my friends showed up on the map even though i'm IMing them right at that moment.

I was also getting sever amounts of packet loss and slow rezzing of in-world objects during this session. Perhaps it's related, but my computer was just freshly booted so i duno what to say. Anyway just letting everyone know incase their having the same thing.

A group session opened up earlier with people talking about the landmark thing. I havent looked at mione yet but yea i hope their not perminently broke lol. I got some places in my sim that take forever to get to without them. XD

I can barely tp anymore, it takes long then i get logged out of SL.

If i do make it thru the TP nothing rezzes at my destination and i need to do a relog to get running again.

TPs seem to be doing ok thismorning for me. I was having a sorta Texture loading problem. Stood around 20 minutes looking at grey stuff. TPing to another sim fixed it partually.. I'm glad their doing better cuz sim borders are worse for travel then TPs at this time.
