To cut down on the clutter, combining a tracker, flight booster, landmark history, etc. into a single tool has been the goal of many SL product designers. There are a lot of good ones out there, but so far I’ve settled on Mystitool by Mystical Cookie.

Why?

Well, for starters it has a great kit. It includes:

  • a tracker
  • flight assistance
  • landmark management
  • object rezzer
  • stationary camera (helpful in those large builds)
  • a builders work area and elevator when you need to get away from it all
  • instant table and chairs
  • URL catcher
  • and other handy tricks and devices (3 menus worth!)

Next it has a backup and restore system which makes keeping those setting and easy upgrades. And by easy upgrades, I mean easy! The server automatically hands you a fresh copy when an update is available. At your convenience swap tools, load settings again, and away you go.

This basic tool is a handy kit and I wear mine all the time. It’s available for $423 lindens (less than USD $2) through the usual places including SL Exchange.
