Hey Team!
Lately we are seeing more worlds add in "age checking" at the entrances of worlds (even with the option for AV only instances available). It would be very useful if world creators had access to call on AV through Udon to help groups run their lobbies a bit more smoothly and help provide them that extra level of security.
Being able to access AV through Udon, lets world creators do some of the following as example:
  • The option for groups to auto allow AV users into the world, while stopping non AV users at the door to manually check.
  • You could provide AV users with an icon above their head. (With a toggle hopefully).
  • Let AV users toggle on game modes that may be more targeted towards 18+ users.
  • Restrict certain area's of a world.
  • Restrict users from entering a world which main theme is adult/"NSFW"/ or not suitable for below -18. ( 'Age Gating' should cover this already, but at the moment you don't need to prove ID when making your VRChat account, so this would solidify it)
  • Automated content adjustments for different age groups -18 & +18 instead of blocking younger users fully or non-verified, worlds could dynamically adjust gameplay, visuals & mechanics.
  • Helpful in overall moderation tools for admins/groups.
  • Enhanced trust for community worlds and create a more trustworthy environment.
  • Improves the reputation of VRChat as a 'safer' social platform.
I am sure there are many other examples/features that world creators can add that allows groups to run their lobbies more smoothly and safely, these were just a handful of ideas submitted by the community.
Thanks!
