Like the changes in being able to set what happens when a person touches an item.... 2 things:
1. change the cursor to arrow + $ when set to buy (leave arrow + ! when set to sit)
2. i setup a teleport plate in sandbox. when set to sit, the plate disappears when touched and the avatar doesn't move

I learned more about this, and as for #1, yes, more descriptive cursors are being thought about. Someone noted ! is strange for sit, since sitting is... passive, and doesn't call to mind a "!!!".
As for #2, I'm sheerly curious, can you please send me a copy of that on Preview Grid? Thanx!

ok... so i went back and tried again. works now, lol. so it should stay an exclamation point for "sit" replacement by touch as a sit can be setup to do quite a few things. like touching something sends you 300m away and you didn't expect that. i did send you the object Torley and left one right inside the sandbox by the welcome center (anyone copy)
i do notice that once i use it, i can't see the script anymore until i copy it or get one out of inventory. don't know what kind of issue that one is.

I agree with #1 i also asked for a $ sign when i bug reported something wrong with the behaviour of the particle stream when using buy and the object isnt forsale, ie the particle stream doesnt stop after getting the error the object isnt forsale. #2 I thought about suggesting another cursor for sit, but then sitting on an object can cause all sorts of behaviour, from sit teleporting you away, making you sit in a funny animation, taking your camera controls, so maybe some caution is required
