Currently VRCX does not provide a reliable way to alert the user when an instance queue becomes available for joining. If the queue is long, users must constantly monitor the interface to avoid missing the moment the slot opens.
A useful feature would be a configurable alarm when a queued instance becomes ready.

Proposed behavior:

Trigger when the queued instance becomes joinable
Optional fullscreen overlay notification
Audio alarm
Optional video or flashing visual cue
Optional system / push notification (depending on OS support)
All alert types configurable in user settings

This would allow users to safely step away from the computer or focus on other tasks without missing their queue slot.

Optional advanced feature

Allow sending a custom OSC signal when the queue becomes ready.

Example use cases:

Trigger external notification devices

Haptic feedback systems

Custom automation setups

Example implementation:

Send a short identifiable OSC pattern (e.g. Morse-style pulses) to a configurable OSC endpoint.

This would allow integrations with external tools or hardware for accessibility and automation purposes.
