Group Room Connection for NoBS
funfly:
Edit: I have the room of SittingDuck's set up for us: I will try to keep a 'key' alphabetically to the rooms up here in top post.
titles: - porters with item
funfly - toy airplane
Goldengourd - golden doughnut (I had to click lower right corner of Gold's porter in her room to return to main hub)
Goldengourd's AIR Hockey Room - has a valentine card by this porter
krazy-kim is krazy - white fox (I think porter is not in place at Krazy's yet)
PurpleDuck - duck sitting on purple egg
Red Delicous/Mystery Red - red nutcracker
Tigerbella - tiger topiary

below is original post:
I enjoy building some simple rooms - however, they get lost on lists so I like to connect them to a main Connection Room.
I thought the new Football Field would be good to start because it's large; but I also noticed the Snowy Hillside room would be great as well because it's large and items look smaller in it. (Edit: Just realized that the Snowy Hillside room has a little more lag though for some reason)
I can place a porter to go to each "section of room types"
Snowy Hillside connects different porters to "Seashore Room Connection"; "Srping Hideaway Connection", etc
Then "Seashore Room Connection" connects to individual built rooms such as "Cottage on the Beach"; and "surf's up" or whatever you title your room..
Anyone else have ideas on how they connect their rooms to locate easier?

You are well organized, Fun. I don't connect rooms (unless it's a ride room). I just let them fall at the bottom of my room list when I buy them. I do list important rooms by capitalizing their titles so that they're easier to find...of course that sounds nice...until yer over 100 rooms in yer list.... :sur: What would be nice is if we could move the rooms around on our list to where we want them. That way we could move important rooms to the top of the list.
I also don't connect rooms because there are some top-secret rooms I don't want people to see. There have been times when I was able to warp to someone elses room just after they had left...and was treated to a very nice tour of their properties. LOL. I'm not sure I want that with my rooms. But I'm wonky, so there it is. :notme:

Thanks, I guess I am somewhat organized in very few things in VFK :lolg: Like you flame, I put some in all caps but not many...and usually it's like this "Fun's Victorian Front Yard -EXITS TO VICTORIAN HOUSE" so I know where I can walk out of my room into a public room area for quests.
My items are organized thanks to Red! :bighug:
I connect rooms so that I can find what I did as "built rooms" and don't mind if someone (friend or stranger) follows there and gets a freebie tour. I've got nothing to hide in those rooms because there is nothing in them for "trades" as I pretty much want them to stay as is. I usually keep these open to Everyone as I remember having great fun touring various stranger's rooms in VMK - there were/are some great builders out there. I figured if I enjoyed touring strangers rooms then there might be others who enjoy seeing random rooms too. In fact, I think our NoBS Halloween rooms that are connected is connected into this entire "built rooms" thing I have going. It's always being updated as I get rooms done. Although I think I need a map anyway :rofl1:
Like you said for your top-secret rooms where you might hide items...well, those rooms or storage rooms I don't connect to any of the others that are "built rooms" But, I don't see a reason to hide things anyway; they're just pixels. But hiding messy :shy: storage rooms is a must!

Ah!!! Flame is never messy...nor does he ever tell a fib! :shy: Most of my rooms are storage or bare, unfortunately. Very boring for a house tour type of thing. I do have my ride rooms connected, so people can ride...but I don't have anything connecting the rides to my main room. Actually...I don't even HAVE a main room come to think of it! ROFL. -note to self: build a 'main room'- :lolp:
I have had experiences in the past with people seeing something in a connected room of mine and getting jealous. That upset me so much that I disconnected most of my rooms and also locked them. Now if I'm in a locked room, it's probably because I'm putting something away or getting something out. It's sad that people can become so jealous about pixels. I mean, really. Now I'm fairly tight-lipped about my 'virtual possessions'. It's sad to have to be that way...but I don't want to risk another 'incident'. Sigh...
I know some people have all their rooms connected from beginning to end. Wow...that's aLOT of teleporters. LOL. I'm not sure I have enough to cover my rooms. Again, most are storage or empty. Very few 'built rooms'. Not much of interest, really. I should probably connect my built rooms...if I can find them again ;)
(hugs)
Flamanar...you know it's bad when you can't find your login room... :roflmao:
