If a user with a very large inventory right-clicks on their "My Inventory" folder, viewer 1 code will send a massive number of Fetchinventory requests.
Even though each is handled asynchronously via a pool thread, the sheer frequency of requests overwhelms the pool and freezes inbound packet handling.
This change makes the first Fetchinventory thread also handle subsequent requests, freeing up the other threads.
Further efficiencies could be made by handling all the items in a particular FetchInventory request together, rather than separately.
This is to avoid problems with corrupt inventories where an inventory link target points back at the source's folder
No viewer has been observed to set these up as of yet. If this ever happens, we will need a more sophisticated solution to track sent folders within the recursion
This now creates an avatar but appearance is always cloudy.
Move doesn't work.
Really, creating an NPC should only involve a ScenePresence rather than doing anything with IClientAPI, since an NPC has no viewer to communicate with!
Console output is more appropriate for console commands. The log only gets one side of the conversation anyway (since it doesn't necessarily record command inputs).
Many thanks to the aurora project for pioneering this.
This code is almost certainly not bug free, but it does at least appear to handle simple meshes (except when the viewer crashes - but it is beta!).
Instead of performing the 4096 check when the region is linked (and subsequently removing the link), leave the link in place and perform the check in the entity transfer module
This allows us to explicitly tell the hypergridder why the teleport failed (region out of range).
It also allows people on regions that are within range (on a large source grid) to teleport.
The Check4096 config parameter in the [GridService] section is replaced by a max_distance paramter in a new [EntityTransfer] section in OpenSimDefaults.ini
Since the parameter is in OpenSimDefaults.ini no action needs to be taken unless you want to increase this limit. It could also be decreased.
The check is being made in the base entity transfer module, since I believe the viewer problem occurs both on extremely large grids and while hypergridding.
RemoteGridService connector. Timeout is currently set at five
minutes. Negative results are not cached.
The result is that operations like send an instant message do
not have to go through the grid service every time.
Changed the experimental capability introduced a couple of commits ago: now sending that extra information as part of the response in the SimulatorFeatures cap.
