LlGetRegionTimeDilation

Returns a float that is the current time dilation, the value range is [0.0, 1.0], 0.0 (full dilation) and 1.0 (no dilation).

It is used as the ratio between the change of script time to that of real world time.

Time dilation is a method the server uses to cope with simulator lag. Physics and script generated lag can result in time dilation. Time dilation slows script time & execution. When time dilation is zero script execution halts.

Affects:

• llGetTime & llGetAndResetTime
• Intervals of timer & sensor events queued as a result of llSetEventTimer & llSensorRepeat.
