Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing a program and method for administrator-based navigating of a participant between rooms. The program and method provide, to a first of plural participants, a first user interface for navigating a virtual space comprising plural rooms, the first user interface allowing the first participant to move the plural participants among the plural rooms; provide, to a second participant, a second user interface for navigating the virtual space, the second user interface allowing the second participant to move among the plural rooms while disallowing to move other participants among the plural rooms; receive an indication of user input via the first user interface, to move the second participant from a first room to a second room; and provide, in response to receiving the indication, for switching the second participant from the first to second room.
