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.
osParseJSON uses hand-crafted decoding that has two issues
* does not seem to handle top-level JSON lists
* does not seem to handle unicode text
thanks otakup0pe!
This makes something like osNpcSit(npc, llGetKey(), OS_NPC_IMMEDIATE) now become
osNpcSit(npc, llGetKey(), OS_NPC_SIT_NOW);
This is why it's in development :)
Format is osNpcSit(<npc-uuid>, <target-uuid>, OS_NPC_SIT_IMMEDIATE)
e.g. osNpcSit(npc, llGetKey(), OS_NPC_SIT_IMMEDIATE);
At the moment, sit only succeeds if the part has a sit target set.
NPC immediately sits on the target even if miles away - they do not walk up to it.
This method is in development - it may change so please don't trust it yet.
Standing will follow shortly since that's kind of important once you're sitting :)
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.
I haven't been able to test this since the viewer won't parse the llCastRay() function. Maybe some activation cap is missing. Could wait until it is activated by default in the viewer.
implement the display names functionality as such, but it allows scripts
that are display name aware to function as if the display name were implemented
and set to the avatar name.
Added the following replacement functions for compliance to the OSSL standards stated on the wiki:
osGetTerrainHeight
osSetTerrainHeight
osGetSunParam
osSetSunParam
osSetPenColor
The functions that do not comply to the standard give a warning when used but work normally otherwise.
The graphics primitive drawing command "PenColor" has also been added as well as dynamic texture parameter "bgcolor" as an alternative to "bgcolour".
The following two functions have been renamed because they are not enabled yet aynway:
osWindParamSet => osSetWindParam
osWindParamGet => osGetWindParam
This provides the same functionality as osTeleportAgent but without the griefing potential. Region owners need not be concerned about the use of this function because it only allows to do what is already possible with the world map.
The intended use is with HUDs. For example, a list of (hypergrid) destinations could be made available for quick access.

Set the projection parameters in the host prim ...
osSetProjectionParam(bool Enabled,
key TextureMaskUUID,
float FOV,
float Focus,
float Ambiance);
Set the projection parameters in a target prim ...
osSetProjectionParam(ikey target uuid,
bool Enabled,
key TextureMaskUUID,
float FOV,
float Focus,
float Ambiance);
Threat Level very high

scripts using these functions should now compile but I don't know how well the methods themselves work yet
llSetPrimMedia(), at least, appears to have problems when a current url is set for a face that doesn't yet have a texture
