This setting was originally added some time ago to deal with issues where appearance was not received properly by all users.
However, it does not scale well with large numbers of agents.
Disabling to see if the original problem has abated or whether this will have to be tackled in another way.
[Startup] default setting UpdateTempCleaningEveryNFrames becomes UpdateTempCleaningEveryNSeconds.
Default becomes 180s instead of effective 182s (which would also vary with any changes in frame time or extra long frames)
If n > 1 for RootTerseUpdatePeriod only every n terse update is actually sent to observers on same region, unless velocity is effectively zero (to stop av drift).
If n > 1 for ChildTerseUpdatePeriod only every n terse update is sent to observers in other regions, unless velocity is effectively zero.
Defaults are same as before (all packets are sent).
Tradeoff is reduction of UDP traffic vs fidelity of observed av mvmt.
Increasing n > 1 leads to jerky observed mvmt immediateley for root, though not on child, where experimentally have gone to n = 4 before jerkiness is noticeable.
This adds the "show stats", "stats record", etc. commands and information on available Threadpool threads, etc.
It also adds the Watchdog which logs warnings if time between executions is unexpectedly large.
Experimentally, on the Linden Lab grid the avatar can rotate slightly before triggering AvatarUpdates, whereas this is practically impossible in OpenSimulator.
These updates allow other avatars to see rotations, though sensitivity is low since other avatars can only be seen in one of 8 body rotations.
This commit changes sensitivity from 0.01 to 0.1, which better matches LL and reduces UDP traffic which has a beneficial impact on network and CPU load.
This has no impact on rotations in the simulator itself so simulation fidelity is the same as before.
To change this setting back for test/other purposes, edit RootRotationUpdateTolerance in the [InterestManagement] section of OpenSim.ini
Running out of such threads under heavy load causes delayed packet processing which can lead to spurious UDP resends and knock on issues.
We already massively boost the min/max builtin pool worker and IOCP threads (which even with STP are still used for inbound network requests) without obvious adverse effects.
The threads are only instantiated if they are required.
This change does not affect other async_call_method options.
Move the experimental extra features functionality into the GridService. This sends default values for map, search and destination guide, plus ExportSupported control to the region on startup. Please watch http://opensimulator.org/wiki/SimulatorFeatures_Extras for changes and documentation.
These govern when AgentUpdates are sent to observers on position, rotation and velocity changes to an avatar (including the avatar themselves).
Higher values reduce AgentUpdate traffic but at a certain level will degrade smoothness of avatar and perceived avatar movement.
This, by default, enables terrain patches being sent to each avatar
from the avatar away (rather than the old outside-in pattern), only
sending terrain patches within the avatars view distance (making
view loading quicker), and sending multiple terrain patches per
protocol packet (making terrain loading and editing quicker).
co-op should be more stable as it doesn't abort threads, which can trigger virtual machine instability
This change will be invisible to users as script DLLs are recompiled automatically where necessary, though the change won't take affect until the next simulator restart.
This change has no effect on existing script state.
If you want to continue using abort, set ScriptStopStrategy = abort in the [XEngine] section of OpenSim.ini
This is to fix an issue since recent commit fbcb763 where these are no longer removed automatically.
OpenSim.*.config was already not appending these newlines
This is to allow us to get useful information on messaging without being overwhelmed by the rest of groups debug.
Enabled with [Groups] DebugMessagingEnabled = true in config (default false)
Or "debug groups messaging verbose true|false on the console" (similar to existing groups setting).
Done for both xmlrpc and V2 groups.
are kept on another. When users rez items from inventory or take objects from world, an HG-like asset copy takes place between the 2 servers, the world asset server and the user's asset server. This makes the simulators independent of the central asset server.
Note that this an advanced configuration and requires some security strengthening coming up.
config option, LogOverloads, to log when a thread pool overload occurs.
This option defaults to "True" because the logging data is useful for
diagnosing threading issues.
a capsule. Set the default to be the rectangle shape and adjust the
parameters in OpenSimDefaults.ini for the new shape.
The rectangle shape will perform better and avatar height can be
computed more accurately.
One reason support was removed is that the external DLL that implemented Javascript stopped development.
Not sure how well this ever worked in OpenSimulator.
Not removing vb for now as this is directly supported by Mono (via vbnc compiler) though I strongly suspect it is also inoperable.
It originally looked like mesh terrain would perform better for vehicles
but, after much use, heightmap is the clear winner.
Force terrain implementation to heightmap if the physics region is
larger than legacy region size. This solves running out of memory for
very large regions.
udp texture throttle and move it to the task throttle. Since most
viewers are using http textures, the udp texture throttle is holding
onto bw that could be used for more responsive prims updates. See
the documentation for CannibalizeTextureRate in OpenSimDefaults.ini.
Option is disabled by default.
Changed UuidGatherer to use 'sbyte' to identify assets instead of 'AssetType'. This lets UuidGatherer handle Materials, which are defined in a different enum from 'AssetType'.
This includes additions to Warp3D:
Optional rendering of mesh and scupltie prims (INI parameter. Off by default)
Texturing of large prims (INI parameter. On by default)
Better garbage collection
This is done by adding <loadFromRemoteSources enabled="true" /> to the execute *.config files.
This tells .NET 4 to trust the DLLs, which is safe in our case since we are not loading DLLs from locations that untrusted users may specify

As far as I know, CAS policy checks have never been performed in Mono
The BulletSim plugin is higher performance and has a better implementation of vehicles amongst other things.
Many thanks to Robert Adams for making this possible with the enormous amount of work that he has done on this plugin.
If you want to continue using ODE, set physics = OpenDynamicsEngine in the [Startup] section of OpenSim.ini

This is specified in the MaxOutgoingTransferVersion attribute of [EntityTransfer] in OpenSim.ini, see OpenSimDefaults.ini for more details.
Default remains "SIMULATION/0.2"
Primarily for http://opensimulator.org/mantis/view.php?id=6755
This requires a new GridService.GetDefaultHypergridRegions() so ROBUST services require updating but not simulators.
This method still returns regions flagged with just DefaultRegion after any DefaultHGRegions, so if no DefaultHGRegions are specified
then existing configured defaults will still work.
Immediate use is for conference where we need to be able to specify different defaults
However, this is also generally useful to send experienced HG users to one default location and local users whose specified region fails (e.g. no "home" or "last") to another.
This can currently only be activated with the console command "debug stats record start".
Off by default.
Records to file OpenSimStats.log for simulator and RobustStats.log for ROBUST
This is for testing and debugging purposes to help determine whether a particular issue may be teleport related or not
"SIMULATION/0.2" (the newer teleport protocol) remains the default. If the source simulator only implements "SIMULATION/0.1" this will correctly allow fallback to the older protocol.
Specifying "SIMULATION/0.1" will force the older, less efficient protocol to always be used.
This is an experimental setting to control cpu spikes when an attachment heavy avatar logs in or avatars with medium attachments lgoin simultaneously.
It inserts a ms sleep specified in terms of attachments prims after each rez when an avatar logs in.
Default is 0 (no throttling).
"debug attachments <level>" changes to "debug attachments log <level>" which controls logging. A logging level of 1 will show the throttling performed if applicable.
Also adds "debug attachments status" command to show current throttle and debug logging levels.
Default off, for the moment, until more testing.
Add separate thread and center-of-mass flags to OpenSimDefaults.ini.
Clean up comments in OpenSimDefaults.ini.
This makes stars appear more realistically rather than as massive chunks due to the missing IMG_BLOOM1 asset from the viewer.
Thanks to YoshikoFazuku for supplying the star asset which I then uploaded via a viewer and extracted as JPEG2000.
Thanks also to Ai Austin for helping this process along.
See http://opensimulator.org/mantis/view.php?id=6691 for more details.
Add option to set minimum fee for publishing classifieds. Many viewers have a
hard coded minimum of 50, which makes publishing classifieds fail where grids
have no economy. This allows the grid to set the minimum fee to a suitable
value for their operation.
The option is located in the [LoginService] section and defaults to 0. The
value is sent as "classified_fee" in the login response.
which recompute GImpact shape bounding box after creation as Bullet
doesn't do that itself (something it does for nearly every other shape).
Now, physical prims without cuts become single mesh convex meshes. Physical
prims with cuts become GImpact meshes. Meshes become a set of convex
hulls approximated from the mesh unless the hulls are specified in the
mesh asset data. The use of GImpact shapes should make some mechanical
physics more stable.
Adding some viwer supported url settings for destination guide and avatar picker apps. URL for the destinations should be: "secondlife:///app/teleport/slurl"
packet can be pulled out of LLClientView and moved to
AvatarFactory. The first pass at reusing textures (turned off by
default) is included. When reusing textures, if the baked textures
from a previous login are still in the asset service (which generally
means that they are in the simulator's cache) then the avatar will not
need to rebake. This is both a performance improvement (specifically
that an avatars baked textures do not need to be sent to other users
who have the old textures cached) and a resource improvement (don't
have to deal with duplicate bakes in the asset service cache).
