Add description and default of false (as before) to OpenSimDefaults.ini
If set to true, this config switch will resend avatar appearance information (a small amount of UUID data, not the baked textures themselves) to other avatars in the sim every 60 seconds.
For me, this has helped with situations where avatars appear persistently grey - the LL viewer sometimes did not appear to request assets the first time the appearance data was sent.
However, this switch will not help with other appearance failure situations (e.g. failure to bake assets).
This setting is experimental but will not have any significant impact on the simulator if turned to true.
The bug manifested as follows: a large world was saved. All the assets were found. But for some unknown reason, the timeout timer was restarted. So after 1 minute it closed the Archive Writer, because it didn't receive any more assets during that minute. That caused the OAR to become corrupted because ArchiveWriteRequestExecution.Save() was still running.
The convention is that if an object implements IDiposable() the code must explicitly call Dispose() or call it via the using statement.
This may be particularly important for GDI+ objects since they encapsulate native code entities.
themselves. For that, the physics module simply calls RequestAssetMethod, which
in turn points to Scene.PhysicsRequestAsset. This gives physics access to
the asset system without introducing unwanted knowledge of the scene class.
A deadlock was observed today where NPC removal on a script thread would lock the NPC list and then try to lock the sensor list via scripted attachment removal.
Concurrently, the sensor sweep thread would lock the sensor list and then try to lock the NPC list to check NPC status.
This commit resolves the deadlock by replacing the sensor list on update rather than locking it for the duration of the sweep.
c150320 started explicitly disposing of the physics scene and nulling it out on region shutdown.
However, the update loop may not have yet checked Scene.ShuttingDown, particularly if avatars were not in the scene, causing failure when it tried to lookup time dilation.
This commit moves the setting of m_shuttingDown above the existing 500ms pause to notify avatars that they are being kicked.
This should not affect the few other places that use this flag.
Possibly this was for a feature that was never implemented or was otherwise removed.
Thanks to SignpostMarv for the spot of the warning that shows this parameter was never changed.
This is to try and resolve a strange Initialization exception for the AppearanceManager type that only occurs on Windows 64 bit (not Windows 32 bit or Linux!)

This update incorporates a fix by Melanie in libomv where textures would sometimes rotate slightly when other properties were changed.
Hence addresses http://opensimulator.org/mantis/view.php?id=6100
This update also incorporates libomv bot code updates that significantly reduce the warning spam for pCampbot.
The change rate of libomv is low and many changes refer to bot or code not used by OpenSimulator, so I think it is sufficiently stable to use evne though it's not a release.
and into its own class. The BulletSim data structures track
individual prims as linksets of 1 so most of the prim code is not
different between a linked and unlinked object.
