MicrObey 200927.1 Released

So just to say I was at a quick stopping off point and not get too far ahead of myself, I've released the MicrObey HUD version 200927.1 ... So what's new?

- Gallery theme & spiral updates pre-caches images now. You've got nice new previous, next, and pause buttons. So you can peruse things that you like instead of waiting for the next image automatically. The cache gets updated every so often. You're welcome.

- The training session theme has been updated much like the gallery stuff. When in training, you can navigate the theme images for the session. Find one you like? Pause it!

- Poses are now a thing in MicrObey. This isn't anywhere near what I want it to be, but it's there to begin evaluating. Let me know what you think. All web-ified and stuff. There's also a new ":pose <pose>" command for training scripts.

- There's some new glasses included with the bundle that let's the world see subliminals, devotions, trainings, training themes, gallery themes and spirals. Thanks to Jan for the idea.

- Lots of other minor things that I stumbled across or was on my list that you may or may not even notice.

So what's next? I have me some ideas. ;) I'd like to proceed with in-world controls (freeze, follow, things like that). I'd also like to better define the internal API for potential integrations. There's a new notecard for collaborations, and I'd really like to pursue those prospects.

Questions? As always, hit me up either here in the comments or in-world.

Your friend indeed,
Imperium

PS - A huge shout out to Kelli for helping uncover issues for me that prompted an evening of rethinking. And to Jan for he idea of the glasses. You guys rule.

Training all subjects

 Just released an update that will allow owners to train all of their online subjects at one time. With your Owner HUD attached:

Click on it ("touch" it) to get the menu:

Click on "My Subjects". It's going to ask you to go to the portal, of course:

Click on "Go to page", just like always ...

At the top of the page will be a button:

Click on "Train My Online Subjects" ... Now it's going to tell you this may take a few seconds and ask if you're really wanting to continue:

So of course you want to continue! You'll be taken to a page that lists everyone who's online.

For those are online, you can select to train them or not. Everything else is roughly similar to the training screen. Select the induction, awakening, so on, so forth, ad nauseum. If a subject is offline or not wearing the MicrObey HUD, you won't be able to train them (and also won't be able to use their content in the selections)

Which brings me to the cool thing about this. The content selection is comprised of everyone who's online. The ultimate in sharing.

This is all still kind of in beta, but I wanted to get it out there all the same. Let me know what you think.
