Note: This is the first part of some changes from Dr Scofield to support console-less operation of an OpenSim region server.
The changes are not yet complete.
* refactors OpenSimMain into two classes: OpenSimMain and
OpenSimMainConsole. OpenSimMainConsole derives from OpenSimMain
and basically is the "old" OpenSimMain
* drops StartConsole from RegionApplicationBase (was only called
from the "old" OpenSimMain anyhow)
* reverts the changes to TryGetScene(string, out scene) as that
seems to work perfectly fine
* adds a check to region-remove to see whether
m_sceneManger.CurrentScene is non-null before comparing it against
the region-to-be-removed
* Added ITerrainLoader import capability to Terrain Plugins module - this allows you to write new terrain format plugins without modifying the terrain module directly.
* Detaching from right clicking in world, detaches to your inventory.
* If you go up to a prim and attach it from in world, it appears in your inventory.
* Attachment placement is saved when you detach them.
* Choosing wear remembers your last attachment point from inventory.
* Wrote a method to update an inventory item's asset and sends the updated inventory item to the Client
* Wrote a recursive method to find the folder of a known existing inventory item.
* Removed a block on physics object position on creation. This might crash a region or two, let us know via Mantis if your region crashes because of a physics out of bounds error.
* Drop doesn't work. The menu item doesn't even come up. Don't know why :P.
* Now, if you own an item in a prim, you should be able to successfully drag it back into your inventory
* Temporarily, users which are not owners of the item cannot copy it, even if 'everyone can copy' is set
* This is pending fixes/implementation of upstream permission implementation
* Temporarily hacked things to bring our protocol data flow to be pretty much completely identical to the Linden's for this - to absolutely no avail.
* Leaving commented code in as a springboard for some future attempt
the patch below adds support for start_location = uri:region&x&y&z to
OpenSim which allows us to provide -url secondlife:///region/X/Y/Z to
the SecondLife client during start up --- which will take you directly
to region "region" at position X, Y, Z.
also, i did increase the default Z value from 70 to 128 as we otherwise
have the problem that on some regions we'd end up inside a mountain
instead of on top of it.
* Your friends can see your attachments now. People who appear in the sim after you've attached something can also see your attachments.
* You can position & rotate your attachments now. Positions do *not* save.
* You can detach attachments now the regular way.
* Attachments do not cross into other regions with you..(this isn't too far off)
* Updated ODE to not request terse updates on child prim.
* Now, emptying the trash should remove folders and the items they contain as well as items which were not in a subfolder.
* This will only work once both the region and grid servers have reached this revision.
* You may also need to clear your cache before this will work
* Refactoring to follow.
which will let you specify a connection string. Required
for Nhibernate, optional for sqlite (there is a sane default),
ignored for mysql and mssql until someone implements the
Iniatialise(string) method.
* On standalone, folders (and their items) should now be persistently deleted on trash emptying, as well as immediate child items
* An implementation for grid mode will follow.
* Currently if you apply that to only one or two axis you get unpredictable and sometimes explosive results.
* Three axis works well enough to play with it anyway. More work is needed here.
* Fixed an incorrectly named method in ODE.NET
the attached patch fixes http://opensimulator.org/mantis/view.php?id=936
aka load-xml/load-xml2 crashing. problem lies with basic physics not
creating physics actors. the solution was already present in
SceneObjectPart.cs.
Attached is a patch for adding the llGetSunDirection functionality. It was implemented by adding a parameter to estate settings for storing the sun position. The sun position is calculated and stored via the sun module everytime the client's sun position is updated. It was tested with several different srcipts on Linux and Windows
* This replaces the old behaviour of failing straight away, which could cause lost updates if the inventory service was slow in responding
* This is the first baby step to making all inventory requests behave this way, to reduce inventory lossage
* I expanded upon his patch just a bit to incorporate the following.
* if the avatar is sitting on this object, then we can unsit them.
* If the object owner also owns the parcel or if the land is group owned and the object is group owned by the same group or if the object is owned by a person with estate access, then we can unsit them.
the attached patch set is centered around RemoteAdminPlugin and focuses
mainly on making it more robust (i.e. more parameter checking and better
error reporting) but also we've re-implemented the LoadTerrain stuff that
got disabled during the terrain code reworking:
* missing PostInitialize() calls on region modules that were loaded
for regions created via RemoteAdmin's CreateRegion XmlRpc call
* re-implements RemoteAdmin's LoadTerrain XmlRpc call (probably lost
during the TerrainModule rework)
* adds lots more parameter checking and error reporting to RemoteAdmin
* adds a read-only property to RegionApplicationBase so that we can
access the CommsManager
* adds Exceptions to TerrainModule so that we get better error case
feedback (and can report more meaningful errors in turn)
* adds a CheckForTerrainUpdate() call to
TerrainModule.LoadFromFile() to make terrain changes effective
* adds TryGetCurrentScene(LLUUID) to SceneManager so that we can
retrieve Scenes not only by name but also by LLUUID
cheers,
dr scofield
* Added a form of GZip compression support to object.xml files produced by exportserialiser. Will look towards standard GZip support. File compression seems to be highly worthwhile reducing a 1.5mb sim state to 62kb.
* This now outputs properly indented XML, that is sorted before construction. This produces a file which proper .diffs can be generated from - the end result being smaller more compact revisions when saving to SVN.
* Files are a little heavy still however, compression looks like a good method for packing sim-states for transport outside of SVN. Zip seems to be a good candidate and is on the TODO.
* A much more significant fix is required to clean up the cache when a user moves out of a region, but really better handling of delayed inventory cache updates needs to be
written first, and possibly better affinity to cut down agent inventory requests when the move is between two regions hosted on the same server.
* All objects are not touchable by default now
* When a script listens for one of the touch events in the state, an object becomes touchable.
* All LSL scripts report which events they consume now
** This uses semi-complicated Regex to discover the events, stick them in a dictionary, and then write a method call into each script state's state_entry() event.
** Tedd may figure out a better way to do this in the future. For now, this works for LSL.
Linked objects won't scale together properly, only the root object scales.
This happens with scaling both up and down or inputting numbers in the edit dialog.
* SVNBackup module now works correctly when you have more than one region.
* Various textual and feature improvements, including new 'ImportOnStartup' option for OpenSim.ini (place in [SVN] section)
