The osGetGrid**** functions will now get the grid settings from the GridInfoService. Set the GridInfoURI in your ./bin/config-include/GridCommon.ini [GridInfo] section.
As discussed on the opensim-dev mailing list, this is to avoid a demonstrated ODE collider segfault when stress-testing a simulator running more than one region using the bundled pCampbot.exe
As before, the ODE revision used is r1755 - only the collider has changed.
Tests so far reveal little performance change.
However, if noticeable issues do arise, please report on mantis and/or the opensim-dev mailing list.
The previous libraries are temporarily in bin/Physics-previous-ode-libs
These can be copied back to bin if one wants to compare behaviour with the previous libraries.
no need for these checks just use Allow_osTeleportAgent = PARCEL_OWNER
also increased function to severe threat level to make it harder to
accidently enable it for everyone.
Doing this in every script is unnecessary since the event trigger is parameterized by the item id.
All that would happen is 2000 scripts would trigger 1999 unnecessary calls, and a large number of initialized scripts may eventually trigger a StackOverflowException.
Registration moved to UrlModule so that the handler is registered for all script engine implementations.
This required moving the OnScriptRemoved and OnObjectRemoved events (only used by UrlModule in core) from IScriptEngine to IScriptModule to avoid circular references.
An owned NPC is one that only the original creator can manipulate and delete.
An unowned NPC is one that anybody with access to the osNpc* methods and knowledge of the avatar id can manipulate.
This is to correct an oversight I made in the original reimplementation where I mistakenly assumed that avatar IDs could be treated as private.
I am not anticipating that many people were deliberately making use of unowned npcs due to their insecure nature.
If you do need an unowned NPC please call the new overloaded osCreateNpc() function with the option OS_NPC_NOT_OWNED.
This will be documented soon. Options can currently be
OS_NPC_CREATE_OWNED - creates a 'creator owned' avatar that will only respond to osNpc* functions made by scripts owned by the npc creator
OS_NPC_NOT_OWNED - creates an avatar which will respond to any osNpc* functions that a caller has permission to make (through the usual OSSL permission mechanisms).
options is being added to provide better scope for future extensibility without having to add more functions
The original non-options osNpcCreate() function will continue to exist.
