Any way to move (locomotion) or "reset" position?!?!?
I understand that this game is supposed to rely on the player's actual movements about their space, but the way the game spawns me into the environment always makes the Chalkboard behind me just out of reach.

No matter how I re-adjust my headset boundaries and restart the game, it always seems to put the chalkboard right out of reach (about 8-12" BEYOND my Guardian boundary!) which happens to be a SOLID WALL IRL that I can't reach through! This makes the game literally unplayable, as that is the first object you need to interact with. I can reach everything else in the "room" just fine!

I don't have time to re-arrange my entire room to squeeze some extra space - I'm playing with approximately 5'x5' Guardian boundary, shouldn't that be enough!?!? Is there some way to bump the player spawn back a bit? This is really baffling as I've never encountered an issue like this before, and the fact of the matter is that the Chalkboard is always placed outside the headset boundary, no matter where I stand when starting the game (because its based on absolute position of Steam Vr center, not relative to where you stand within your boundary)!

Hey Adele,
Sorry to hear it's not working for you. The Red Stare uses a system to adjust the roomscale to your guardian boundary, but it's intended to work with rooms 1.5 x 2 meter and above, so I'm afraid your space may be a bit too small. I believe if you disable the guardian system or just set it up really small it'll get as small as possible, but if it's spawning things outside of your guardian system that might already be the case.
It's been quite a while since we worked on TRS but I'll ask one of the other devs if they can think of some way to help out.

Hey RamonRed,

Thanks for your response. I'm actually in the process of renovations on my property right now that will enable more room to play VR, as it would probably enhance my experience overall in any game.

I appreciate your attention to my comment. This is the first roomscale-dependent game that I've actually given a try so far, so I just wanted to confirm that there was no locomotion system at all. I'll try experimenting with the Guardian settings.

Looking forward to playing.

A developer of this app has indicated that this post answers the original topic.

I have a similar issue, the chairs and the fan spawn too close to the board, I used to play the game before with a different setup for the sensors and less space, and not with a little bit more of space I always spawn with the chair in the middle of the room
