Save full body calibration between sessions

I understand duplicate posts might be ignored but this is a feature that will impact a whole new full body tracking technology (IMU based) and make it much easier for us to get in VR as well as maybe some other niche vr tech (mocap suit??) or even standard vive/tundra users.
cmon... add full body tracker calibration saving q.q

This would incredibly helpful for the accessibility needs of those who are not able to stand for calibration often, between different sessions or if they crash.

necromancing this: would be nice for imu users. a toggle in settings would solve the ui problem others have commented about

The saved calibration doesn't really have to be loaded automatically. Instead, when VRChat doesn't have yet calibration data from the current season, it will show half of the calibrate button in quick menu as "use calibration from last session" or something similar.
This will ensure quick and easy access to the feature and will not cause unnecessary trouble when you don't want it.

Honzackcz I disagree, why would you need to pick between 2 buttons when you could just be put into the previous calibration, and if you don't like it, just hit the calibrate button!
Honzackcz
ScruffyRuffles That was just possible option in case the automatic load would be unwanted.
The button may also function similar to the "go home" button that shows sub menu with options of going to your selected home or to the default home.
Anyway, this option needs to appear only for first calibration after application start. When there is already applied calibration, the calibrate button would have the current functionality.

With SteamVR trackers (Vive/Tundra) it's quite easy every time to put them on the same spot and adjust their position a bit.
I already do this with hip tracker. When I go to toilet, I take the the hip tracker off, then it's easier to place it on the same position as before instead of doing recalibration.
This is more noticable when using more StreamVR trackers like on elbows because it requires to do more precise T pose to calibrate them properly.
Also when VRChat crashes (that's not rare) and you are already sitting/lying, it's really annoying to get up just to recalibrate.

that wont work due to loss of tracking, then trying to find them and put it back when the data will not be the same you see full body users hip be wonky and they have to get up and re-calibration. same wold be when you get on VRC the data is gone/not where it was.

Midnight_NOW This is why i mentioned that it mainly affects all users with IMU based tracking. Some examples of other usecases where this is handy might be for people with niche setups like mocap suits which dont change very much each time or those who wear their lighthouse tracked devices in the same places. Such users could simply shift the tracker around till the ingame avatar matches where it should be. Calibration is just adjusting a tracking point to a new position. You could always move your tracker to a previously calibrated position. For IMU based these positions never change.
Sure you can object to this but just leave the feature toggled off if this ever gets added?
