No, sorry.

Hello,

you wrote in one of the first posts, that the server has to parse the map Xml, but I can't how to achieve this... Where is the XML Map, where you're on the server-side ?

First of all please notice that this post was referred to OpenSpace 1. There's no answer to your question, because there is no out-of-the-box feature. You have to crete your own server side code which loads a map, parses it, etc.

okay, but how can we attach a map to a room, if we do it ourselves ? Can we have a doc on parsing a .map file ?

From you other posts, I know you are working with OpenSpace 2, right?
If you are referring to OS 2, then please create a new post with your questions. Otherwise if you are still referring to the topic of this post, and to OS 1, let us know and we will reply here.

Sorry, I'll create a new post.

Is/should the final position be set:
1) As soon as walking the path starts?
2) As soon as walking the path ends?
3) Along each step of the path, using e.g. a timer or frame based simulated animation on the server?

The first one: as soon as walking the path starts.

Hi Paolo. Thank You for server side implementation of avatar appearing.
All works properly but I have a problem avatar appear in the bottom part of screen. How can we set centerViewport = true from server side?

This is not possible.
