[Opensim-users] Starting with an empty world

[Huntress Gary B NPRI]

Greetings,

I have been practicing with various OpenSim builds and I have reinstalled several times over the past 2 weeks.  This has included binary and source builds for different versions.   One thing that has been an annoyance is starting underwater with a tiny patch of land that I have to terraform.  

I think on my very first attempt I started on a big open (dry) tabletop.  I was surprised when I reinstalled a later version that I was on a smallish round island.  Today was even stranger, there was nothing more than a giant spike of land poking high out of the water.

Is there an easy way to init a large parcel of land?     It appears that the "terrain" command is now gone.


Thanks,

Gary H.
