Idea for spawning in the Grid:
Since i think you'll be transported in the grid by a Scanner (like in the movies and games).
I think there should be a building representing that 'Digitizing Program' where you can also transport back to the Overworld.
If more then one Scanner is being build in the Overworld, more of those buildings can be found in the grid.
Each building being linked to a certain Scanner.
*Other ideas about terrain generation/digitizing (so i may get a little crazy here)*
The Scanner program is spawned on some flat area (representing the free disk space) surrounded by the Outlands.
And by installing 'Programs' on the computer linked to that Scanner, new buildings will be generated around that scanner building.

If you have more then 1 scanner (or computer), you can travel trough the Outlands to it's 'Hard Drive'.
In the Outlands you can find some small Rogue Buildings containing, infected/corrupted Programs or ISO's.
Those are some ideas of mine, some might not be easy/able to implement.
But hey, i told you i could get a little crazy with these ideas.
I like that idea a lotI have a funny idea, the grid is called Apple. Get it?
I had another idea, what if in the grid, if you went to the off the grid part, there would be an enemy that would follow you and i you got far enough off the grid, he would start attacking you out of nowhere. And he would start throwing light disks at you and when you found him, he would start to melee you. Just a thought.
You should make a Flynn's Arcade have a about .3% chance of spawning around the world, and have the laser and a bunch of arcade machines. It should also be like the arcade in the movies and have a lounge and a chest with a bunch of loot. It should also look like it just survived the end of the world, like with the roof collapsing in and roads running in the front and on the side and a demolished building on the back and side.
Im still fighting with ideas on how spawn into the world is going to work but i don't think i can make you spawn into a building. How does this sound, when you head to the grid your position is saved. when you leave the grid you return to the position that was saved.
You could make it so that when you leave, it leaves an invisible portal where you were and deletes the portal that had gotten into the world with, maybe.
You should make it so that you have to equip a memory in your chest armor slot, and then if you take it off and right click it, it'll list the cords that you've been since you logged on
