Help Island/Welcome Area Occupancy Counter System - OverviewBackgroundThis is a system of scripts, sensors and servers designed to sense, collect, report and disseminate information on the occupancy levels of Orientation Islands, Help Islands, Welcome Areas and Infohubs. What it boils down to is a single prim HUD attachment on a Second Life Mentor's display. When a Mentor clicks the HUD and requests an update from the server to display, there are a lot of things that happen in the background. Hopefully this documentation will illustrate what goes on behind the scenes, and how big this system actually is.
