1. The meeroos "would not update" before I had rebuilt them (maybe I misunderstood and that is the common procedure).

2. Marked mode functioned - getting into it, not getting out of it. Meeroos were not "talking" to the stump,before I had rerezzed them.

Hi,

Shifty Meeroo #41995 was being held when the stump automagically started updating him.

1) The new version of him dropped to the ground, updated.
2) The old version of him was still attached to me. With the red text "UPDATING, DO NOT PICK UP" etc.
3) New version of him did fine and went to stump.
4) I then 'Dropped' the old version of him and he was standing still unresponsive. HUD showed his stats but no hover text.
5) About 3 minutes later:

[21:39] Shifty Meeroo: Update failed. Please try again later.
[21:39] Shifty Meeroo: AI Script Online. Free: 2082

So it was very exciting to see a new featurn on the new stump: Find! So I clicked it and this is what I got:
[20:43] Yavanna Meeroo: I'm currently at Dreamworld Azure/85/42/2990
[20:43] Meriadoc Meeroo: I'm currently at Dreamworld Azure/85/43/2990
[20:43] Nessa Meeroo: I'm currently at Dreamworld Azure/82/41/2990
[20:43] Faramir Meeroo: I'm currently at Dreamworld Azure/86/43/2990
[20:43] Eowyn Meeroo: I'm currently at Dreamworld Azure/82/44/2990
[20:43] Arwen Meeroo: I'm currently at Dreamworld Azure/85/43/2990

There are some major problems with this:
1) Talk about spammy.

Its inevitable that there will be updates for the meeroos, and depending on how the updates happen *like now, its over the span of a few hours* maybe adding the meeroo version to the hud would make it easier to see whos all updated - cuz when those lil suckers are in a big pile its hard to see all the text

wouldnt it be nice if a meeroo could grow to love someone he didnt love kinda like in RL when your just friend then find out you lurve them after spending so much time with them

or is that possible cos i accidently released the only love of one of my females and now shes all alone and all the guys love my other female i keep holding a guy with her at the same time to see if i can somehow will then to love eachother but its not working D:

i do not like that the maturity age is permanently changed to 5 days instead of 10 as originally planed.

please post here if you agree with me on this.

i know this has been brought up, but im thinking if it could be coded to let the person (fellowship or non) that sees the treasure get it, they can. so if say bobby sue was offline or away from her meeroos and billy saw it, he could pick it up and gain the points himself. would be even better :)

another function, one that would check to see if a "certain" meeroo was on grid or removed without release (deleted). would be very handy for fellows and fellowships to find out if they still had the meeroo or not.

could be added to premium, or to hud? to allow checks if a meeroo you are interested in buying or locating was in world. am i making sense?? lol

I mentioned it in the group and CSR said to post it in the forum.

Is it possible that you give us an option to turn off the stump messages

*Meeroo Home V0.77: Resuming normal meeroo activity!
and
*Meeroo Home V0.77: No nearby players found, putting meeroo in reduced activity mode!

atm I have only 2 stumps on the land, in different places, and whenever someone moves there wearing a hud (which happens often, as we are 3 betatester on the sim and after beta more family members will be wearing huds) I get those messages.

I have a suggestion to make things a bit easier. When someone has alot of Meeroos all in one location petting them is a bit challening in that after about 5 or 6 meeroos when they are all moving it is difficult to know which you have already pet.Eventhough they glow that glow goes away rather quickly. So what ends up happening is that you end up petting the same Meeroos over again.
