* I don't use mssql so this may not work, corrections (in the form of patches) are welcome.
* Unlike mysql, mssql requires manual updating of existing tables here (which should mean just adding the new fields manually)
* Interfaces and methods have been defined for basic operation, however a replacement grid module is required to share region URIs with neighbours for this module to work.
* Tackling that next.
* Fixes the admin_shutdown xmlrpc method
* Adds a share/python/console/shutdown.py script for shutting down a background OpenSim
* For more details see http://xyzzyxyzzy.net/2008/04/29/console-less-opensim/
* There should also be instructions in the opensimulator wiki soon as well
* Added new generic "Location" class to handle 2D integer locations. Going to use it to replace all RegionHandle and X,Y coordinate references throughout the entire project. You have been warned.
* From reading the code, the cause must be that a 'show objects on my parcel' is performed when there are objects belonging to more than 32 people
* I'm not sure why there is a hardcoded 32 limit but I'm leaving it in place for now. I don't regard this mantis as resolved.
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.
