The osGetGrid**** functions will now get the grid settings from the GridInfoService. Set the GridInfoURI in your ./bin/config-include/GridCommon.ini [GridInfo] section.
This is to make it easier to change all these names at once, where all grids services are running from the same location.
Also rearranges some lines in [Modules] so that StandaloneCommon.ini.example and GridCommon.ini.exmaple are consistent.
This is controlled by the CreateDefaultAvatarEntries switch in the [UserAccountService] section of config-include/Stnadalone.ini
This is left as false in grid mode
Viewer 2 no longer contains the default avatar assets (i.e. "Ruth") that would appear if the user had insufficient body part/clothing entries.
Instead, avatars always appear as a cloud, which is a very bad experience for out-of-the-box OpenSim.
Default is currently off. My intention is to switch it on for standalone shortly.
This is not particularly flexible as "Ruth" is hardcoded, but this can change in the future, in co-ordination with the existing RemoteAdmin capabilities.
Need to fix creation of suitable entries for users created as estate owners on standalone.
Avatars still appear with spooky empty eyes, need to see if we can address this.
This commit adds a "Default Iris" to the library (thanks to Eirynne Sieyes from http://opensimulator.org/mantis/view.php?id=1461) which can be used.
This matches the GridCommon setting and is the best tested setting. It appears to work fine on standalone.
Also, add information that the flotsam asset cache is the recommended cache, since it is most used and actively maintained.
This matches the ability to disable the memory part
This is controlled through the FileCacheEnabled parameter in FlotsamCache.ini
Default is true, so existing installations are not affected.
Improved fcache command feedback when various caches are disabled.
Re-enabled test for flotsam cache with file caching disabled.
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.
For the most part, defaults are made to match those already in FlotsamCache.ini.example.
The one exception is that the 48 hour file timeout from the code is used instead of the 0 hours that was in the example file. This can be tweaked if necessary.
Most importantly, the default cache directory is now ./assetcache (as in FlotsamCache.ini.example) rather than ./FlotsamAssetCache (as was the internal code default).
Therefore, if you were using flotasm without using the config file, then please rename your cache directory or start using the ini file and change the default there if you want to keep using your existing cache.
Change the remote Grid region module so that it takes the network connector as a config variable. This allows the region plugin to be reused for both Robust and Simian network connectors.
Configuration option AssetService in section [GridService] must be set to enable this functionality.
Map tiles do currently not show for hyperlinks set in simulators that are connected to grids, see Mantis #5270.
