Why not have a separate VMK server where you could plan out rooms, and build things in any way you want? I suppose a mini program would work too, but then itd need to be made from scratch, which would presumably be a lot more work than simply making a clone of the main game, on a significantly smaller, and less used server.
How it might work (Simple stuff):
? No one can see each other, its basically a solo VMK in that sense, no need to load anyone besides you and anything from the next bullet point. This also has the benefit of requiring no moderators.
? Depending on the viability, it might be nice to be able to summon bots to the room, or at least being able to login as a generic character, without making a second account, this way you can test room congestion, and for any unexpected occurrences.
? All furniture is buyable or available in unlimited quantities in your inventory. This might have to be played with a bit to find the best method for organizing it.
? All rooms are available, and buyable. If there is no catalog image, either leave it, or put 5 of the room in inventory upon starting game.
? All furnishing and poster items in the MyVMK database are available for use, regardless of current availability.
? Built in screenshot output
Stuff thatd be cool, but probably would require more coding work that it'd be worth, but I'm putting on the post in just in case:
? Printout or text output of all items in the room, and information on the following
Currently Buyable? Yes/No
Released to public: Yes/No
Price: XXXX
? The ability to straight up have a designated account purchase all buyable things on the list.
? The ability to reference your actual accounts inventory, so you know what you already have
? Ability to set up layered screen shots that act as construction guides. One might have the bottom layer of stuff, the next more stuff, that needs the previous stuff, and so on.
? Now, depending on what people want, there might also be some kind of screenshot prevention tool, so it is only useful as reference, and people cant post screenies from this server, and act like they made it on the main server.
