Tower of Transfer バージョン 4.9

This is an accessory for Tiny Empires and Tiny Empires 3000.

The Tower of Transfer allows the movement of acres and ships from a very large number of Givers to one (or more) Receiver(s).

This is useful for acre parties in kingdoms and queendoms, where a great number of people may want to give acres to help someone achieve a rank, take the next step in the path to royalty, or recover from a sabotage.

It serves a similar purpose for ships in guilds.

This is also useful for managing a large number of alts giving acres or ships to a main player.

The intent of having multiple Receivers on the same Tower is to accommodate players who use the same avatars for both Tiny Empires and Tiny Empires 3000. This way the Receivers can be from different games, but you could also have multiple Receivers from the same game. (It's your Tower. Use it the way you want.)

Get everyone involved. Share the resources; and by working together you give more, grow faster, and build a greater realm.

Behavior:
------------------------------
The Tower moves the Receiver(s) between the Givers to maximize their exposure and allow all of the Givers to have an opportunity to transfer acres or ships.

Once a Receiver reaches the top of the Tower, they dramatically plunge back to the start, giving those slower Givers a chance to try again.

Background:
------------------------------
Here in the Kingdom of Gryffindor one issue we've found is that there's a lot of confusion at acre parties. They can get lagged and chaotic, and it's difficult to move the Receiver and the Giver together.

Others have tried to solve the problem with clocks and tables and trader circles and other pose arrangements that bring people closer together, but they're limited to a few people.

So, I did some math and here's what I found.

• Most acre transfer arrangements only held 5 Givers, because they're flat, in 2 dimensions.

• More advanced arrangements could accommodate up to 8 Givers, if they use 3 dimensions.

• The Tower of Transfer can manage up to 100 (the max number of agents in a full region) because it exists in 4 dimensions. It uses time as well as space.

Specifications:
------------------------------
This item has been approved by Ultralite Soleil for use with Tiny Empires. It doesn't interact with the TE/TE3K HUD to give or take acres/ships. It just makes people close, so that they can more easily do it themselves.

This item requires that you have permission to rez objects, ideally in a quiet area. (Not a sandbox.)

The Tower of Transfer is low impact, with only 2 prims and 1 script

It requires at least a 5x5m area for setup, and may be up to 54m tall.

It will accommodate up to 100 avatars depending on the load on your sim

The current record, that I've heard, is 86 people on the Tower at once! (Let me know if you break this record.)

Future:
------------------------------
I'm working toward making the Tower mobile, so it can be resistant to sim restarts. The current version has some behavior for flying the Tower, but the passengers may have a difficult time surviving sim crossings, so this mobility is limited to the current region.
