TIP
Place a "Surveyor Only" item such as <kuid2:661281:96069:1> "Surveyor Only Object Indicator (Red 1m Cube)" then name it and use Ctrl-F to find your bookmarks. Use the format "Bx - Description" to make it easier to figure out which bookmark you are looking for.
Logs Palette
The new S20 Log palette provides a list of developer log messages and allows searching the log text.

Activity Logs
We're also expanding the capabilities of the log system including:
* Support for custom 'metadata' tagging, allowing a log message to reference multiple world objects (trains, industries, etc), players, assets, simple keywords, etc
* UI context menus driven by the log metadata (e.g. right-click a log to open a player chat, view a relevant object, etc).
* Full localisation support, including over MPS, where the player can search server-stored logs in their native language
* A brand new script UI to add activity logs, including the ability to define custom metadata objects
