This is to prevent the aborting of attachment script threads on teleport from aborting the one actually doing the teleport.
This allows OSSL teleport functions to work when invoked on scripts in attachments (and huds, I assume)
It's never possible for SOG to have no RootPart, except in the first few picosends of the big bang when it's pulled from region persistence or deserialized
The only times when ParentGroup might be null is during regression tests (which might not be a valid thing) and when scene objects are being constructed from the database.
At all other times it's not possible for a SOP not to have a SOG parent.
Default for this function is now not to automatically land.
This allows better control by scripts when an avatar is going to be landing on a prim rather than the ground.
Stopping the avatar involves faking a collision, to avoid the pid controller making it overshoot.
A better approach would be to gradually slow the avatar as we near the target
this is to allow walking on prims. it will be up to the script writer to be sure that there is a continuous path.
currently implemented in osNpcMoveToTarget(), but none of this is final.
This works by serializing and deserializing NPC AvatarAppearance to a notecard in the prim inventory and making the required baked textures permanent.
By using notecards, we avoid lots of awkward, technical and user-unfriendly issues concerning retaining asset references and creating a new asset type.
Notecards also allow different appearances to be swapped and manipulated easily.
This also allows stored NPC appearances to work transparently with OARs/IARs since the UUID scan will pick up and store the necessary references from the notecard text.
This works in my basic test but is not at all ready for user use or bug reporting yet.
This is a slight adaptation of the patch in http://opensimulator.org/mantis/view.php?id=4568 which doesn't apply directly since the underlying code was changed by earlier makopoppo patches.
Thanks makopoppo!
Even though we don't use the results, just getting the regions may have side effects in making hypergrid links available for the later World.RequestTeleportLocation()
Remove the too coarse CanEditParcel method in favor of a CanEditParcelProperties
method that takes a GroupPowers argument to specify what action is to be
taken. Also, make the method to set parcel data much more granular. Permissions
in a deeded setting should now work.
