[Opensim-users] Avatar movement while falling

[R.Gunther]

Just done a quick test with 0.7.6dev bulletsim from 3000 meters and it 
works same as in sl.
When your falling down you can slowly navigate the avatar over the sim 
when still falling.
I see that on the minimap. SO. on 0.7.6dev version i use with bulletsim 
it works fine.
