Release Date: 4/3/2026

Enhancements

Image Boards

• Un-focus: To un-focus simply click off of an image board

• As long as you don’t click on another interactable object, the camera focus will be released
• Esc, closing the focus mode indicator and clicking the board again to un-focus all still work

Simulation AI Agent Improvements

• Setting up Sims from the UI now requires the setupsim permission. It is set to Members by default.

• Users can start a Sim even if they didn’t set it up.

• Office Sign Override

• Worlds can opt out of this behavior if desired. When a Sim is launched, the office holding the Sim has its label changed to reflect the Sim title playing out in the office.
• Opting out requires a request to the Virbela Development Team

Bug Fixes

• Ghost scene / user

• Occasionally when 2 users would go to an unoccupied scene at nearly the same time they would be sent to different instances of the room and could not see each other.
