This is to allow a second attempt to remove an avatar even if "show connections" shows them as already inactive (i.e. close has already been attempted once).
You should only attempt --force if a normal kick fails.
This is partly for diagnostics as we have seen some connections occasionally remain on lbsa plaza even if they are registered as inactive.
This is not a permanent solution and may not work anyway - the ultimate solution is to stop this problem from happening in the first place.
The encodings are thread-safe and already used in such a manner in other places.
This isn't done where Byte Order Mark output is suppressed, since Encoding.UTF8 is constructed to output the BOM.
This works like osForceAttachToAvatar() but allows an object to be directly specified from the script object's inventory rather than forcing it to be rezzed in the scene first.
Still only attaches objects to the owner of the script.
This allows one to bypass the complicated co-ordination of first rezzing objects in the scene before attaching them.
Threat level high.
These behave identically to llAttachToAvatar() and llDetachFromAvatar() except that they do not enforce the PERMISSION_ATTACH check
Intended for use in completely controlled dedicated environments where these checks are more a UI hinderance than a help.
Threat level high.
This makes it consistent with other parts of OpenSimulator that are treating ESTATE_MANAGER and ESTATE_OWNER as different entities.
As per opensim-dev mailing list.
Change threat level on osSetRegionSunSettings and osSetEstateSunSettings from nuisance to high to match similar functions.
If you had enabled these functions but had relied on the hardcoded god check in the code, then please adjust your OSSL permissions config.
Thanks to Oren Hurvitz for pointing this out.
are osReplaceString(string source, string patter, string replace, integer count, integer start)
The count parameter specifies the total number of replacements to make, -1 makes
all replacements.
This allows NPCs to be sensed as agents by LSL sensors rather than as a specific NPC type (which is currently an OpenSimulator-only extension).
Wiki doc on this and other recent NPC functions will follow soon
llGetOwnerKey() could also be extended but this does not allow one to distinguish between an unowned NPC and some other result (e.g. 'no such object' if NULL_KEY is the return.
Also, any future extensions to LSL functions by Linden Lab are unpredictable and OpenSim-specific extensions could clash.
The osGetGrid**** functions will now get the grid settings from the GridInfoService. Set the GridInfoURI in your ./bin/config-include/GridCommon.ini [GridInfo] section.
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.
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.
