Ambrosia Estates Covenant (8/11/2024)
Part 1. Rental Instructions and Rules
• Land rentals are for Residential and Light Commercial use.
• No AFK clubs, Breedable shops, Fishing/traffic games or Traffic bots.
► Renting a Parcel:
✓ First, click on the “Teleport to Payment Office” button located on the
Ambrosia Sign.
✓ Next, pay the rental terminal for the corresponding parcel you would like to rent.
✓ After that you can use the teleport box next to the rental meter to return.
✓ Finally, purchase the parcel for L$1 using the land button at the top of
your viewer or by clicking on the land and selecting “Buy this Land”.
Note: Please contact us if you need either a teleport to the rental office or
a payment terminal on your parcel. We currently use this method to keep a
clean look without breaks to the parcels.
Part 2. Getting Help
► Please contact ? -or- ? with issues or questions. Instant messages are fine but you can drop a notecard if you prefer.
Part 3. Terraforming and Building Rules
► Height
• No flying structures or skyboxes below 500m altitude.
• Maximum build height on ground level is 50m.
► Skybox Rules
• Please be sure your skybox, dome included, is within your parcel boundary.
• Please be respectful of your neighbors and space your skyboxes out.
We encourage you to build at different heights so as not to block another
resident’s view. You should build your outside views in your skybox so they
are not facing your neighbor.
► Walls
• Fences and small walls on the parcel border are allowed as long as they are not
disruptive of the region’s looks.
► Land Settings
• Enable "restrict gesture and object sounds to this parcel" on your plot.
• Ban lines are currently prohibited to ensure the aesthetic of the land.
► Security and Orbs
• Security Orbs, if used, must only scan your parcel or a range completely
inside your parcel to avoid sending messages to neighbors or neighboring visitors.
► Rezzed Items
• Breeding farms are NOT allowed due to high script usage, this is also the case
with moving pets and rezzed NPCs that would be part of games (Such as zombie
shooters).
• No major eyesore items. This includes but is not limited to giant structures,
advertisements and blinking lights/lasers.
• No Temp rezzers (temp-on-rez) This includes but is not limited to scripts and
weapons that spam the region with objects that could exceed region / parcel
capacity.
• No region wide scanners for group invites, greeters.
• No high lag script use.
► Terraforming
• Terraforming is allowed, but we ask you to please inform the staff prior to
making changes. This s so we can backup the heightmap in the event of a
mistake. Additionally we ask that you please don't make unsightly edits.
• No sheer cliffs.
• No land above 30 meters.
• No walls on borders.
• No foreshore (areas touching water) that are above the water line.
Note: Please keep the region beautiful and congruent. Failure to adhere to
the requests above may result in a rollback of the previous state of the terrain.
• Textures are locked and set. Please understand that the texture tools that
Linden Labs provides are very limited. You cannot paint textures, they are created
by elevation rules that are extremely random. We did our best to pick PBR
textures that were both beautiful and neutral to make it easier for you to
decorate. The textures are not baked, so changes to your elevation should
change the texture, but expect random results.
• Ambrosia reserves the right to update the textures on the region ONLY
if ALL rental parties agree that a change is required and can agree on
a replacement.
• Edits will be made in respect to the shared borders. Requests that result
in sheer cliffs, texture stretching or destruction of continuity will be denied.
• Off sim decorations will be allowed pending owner’s approval. Please respect
the theme and overall look of the region.
• No terrain mesh in an effort to terraform will be allowed. You may use rocks
and other mesh to decorate, but please do not use mesh to create terrain. Some
exceptions can be made with approval.
Part 4. Conduct
• The use of objects, HUD's, scripts, ... that shout messages over the region is
forbidden.
• Report incidents of griefing to our staff members listed at the top of this
document.
• No littering of objects on other Residents land.
• No harassment or stalking of any kind.
✓ Nude/Adult Activities are allowed on Adult shaped avatars only.
• Child avatars are not allowed on adult land.
Part 5. Liability
► Ambrosia Estates reserves the right to discontinue rent for any Residents that:

• Consistently act un-neighborly with other Residents in the region.
► We reserve the right to refuse a rent from a tenant if they cause issues or harm in the region.

► Rental prices are partly subsidized by the owners through commercial operation within the region.
Ambrosia Estates deems the above covers and protects all residents.

We have no intention to change the rules, unless it’s absolutely needed. No rash edits or draconian rules will be added.
