Beta/BlueSteel
What is BlueSteel?
BlueSteel is the nickname for 1 of our 3 'Server Release Candidate' channels. When a new version of server is ready for the main grid it needs to prove itself in a release candidate channel for one week first. This is what we used to call a pilot roll. Once a 'Server Release Candidate' has proven itself it will be rolled out to the entire main grid. BlueSteel will then be given a new 'Server Release Candidate'. We might have as many as three 'Server Release Candidate' channels on the main grid at the same time. The others are LeTigre and Magnum. These can and probably will change on a weekly basis.
BlueSteel Release Channel
This is the BlueSteel Release Channel. Information on this release candidate is below. For more information on beta projects, see: Beta Server Office Hours.
Timeframe
We will normally roll Release Candidates to the grid Wednesday mornings when we have them. If we don't have one we won't roll anything. The RC has to be stable on the main grid for 6 days. If so it will be rolled to the full grid next the next Tuesday morning. During the course of the 6 days RC cycle regions on the RC cycle may be restarted more frequently.
Additional Information
BlueSteel can be on about 10% of the grid. These four regions will always have the latest up to date BlueSteel RC code. You are welcome to use them as needed. They are available to members of the group "Second Life Beta". Please join this group: http://world.secondlife.com/group/19657888-576f-83e9-2580-7c3da7c0e4ca
If they are closed that means there is no RC using that channel.

- Fixed some crash modes
- New features
- The simulator now blocks unsupported bits from being requested in llRequestPermissions()
- New pathfinding character property for llCreateCharacter() and llUpdateCharacter(): CHARACTER_STAY_WITHIN_PARCEL
- CHARACTER_STAY_WITHIN_PARCEL takes a boolean parameter, either TRUE or FALSE
- Default setting is FALSE, leading to traditional pathfinding behavior.
- If a parcel allows scripts and objects and the character does not have the CHARACTER_STAY_WITHIN_PARCEL option enabled, it can freely cross the parcel boundary in both directions.
- Characters which have CHARACTER_STAY_WITHIN_PARCEL set to TRUE treat the parcel boundaries as one-way obstacles.
- Pathfinding wander, flee, evade, and pursue behaviors will only choose goal points within their starting parcel.
- If a character somehow manages to escape its original parcel (e.g. it was 'pushed' out), it will be able to return to the original parcel, but will be unable to leave the original parcel afterwards.
- New LSL functions for returning objects from parcels
- integer llReturnObjectsByID(list objects)
- Requires new runtime permission PERMISSION_RETURN_OBJECTS
- objects is a list of objects IDs to return to owner
- Parcel owner, estate owner, and estate managers can not have their objects returned by this method.
- If the script is owned by an estate owner or manager, this function works for objects located on any parcel in the region.
- Otherwise, the script can return objects located over land owned by the owner of the script.
- Throttled at max parcel land impact capacity region-wide per hour.
- Returns the number of objects that were returned to their owners or an error code.
- integer llReturnObjectsByOwner(key owner, integer scope)
- Requires new runtime permission PERMISSION_RETURN_OBJECTS
- scope is:
- OBJECT_RETURN_PARCEL to return all objects on the same parcel as the script which are owned by 'owner'. The script must be owned by an estate manager or over a parcel owned by the owner of the script.
- OBJECT_RETURN_PARCEL_OWNER to return all objects owned by 'owner' which are over parcels owned by the owner of the script.

- Scheduled 2013-04-17, for RC BlueSteel, RC LeTigre, and RC Magnum
- Features
- CHANGED_REGION and CHANGED_TELEPORT changed() events will now be called on child prims (SVC-3755)
- New LSL functions for animation overrides: llSetAnimationOverride(), llGetAnimationOverride(), llResetAnimationOverride()
- Benefits:
- Reduced scripting overhead:
- Replacing a default animation is less code run only once.
- No polling required, no tracking agent state
- Works seamlessly with existing animations and animation systems
- Smoother Animation Overrider behavior
- Current AOs fight the base animation. This lets the user change the base animation for a state so there is no fighting.
- Reduced scripting overhead:
- llSetAnimationOverride(string anim_state, string anim)
- Set the animation that will play for the given animation state.
- Animation must be in the contents of the object with the script, or one of the default animations.
- Requires new runtime permissions PERMISSION_OVERRIDE_ANIMATIONS
- string llGetAnimationOverride(string anim_state)
- Get the name of the animation currently set for the given animation state.
- Requires either new runtime permissions PERMISSION_OVERRIDE_ANIMATIONS or PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION
- llResetAnimationOverride(string anim_state)
- Resets the animation for the given animation state to the default.
- Special state of "ALL" will reset all animation overrides to their defaults.
- Requires new runtime permissions PERMISSION_OVERRIDE_ANIMATIONS
- PERMISSION_OVERRIDE_ANIMATIONS
- Only auto-granted for attachments.
- List of supported animation states
- "Standing", "Sitting", "Sitting on Ground", "Jumping", "Hovering", "Taking Off", "CrouchWalking", "Walking", "Running", "Hovering Up", "PreJumping", "Hovering Down", "FlyingSlow", "Flying", "Falling Down", "Striding", "Landing", "Soft Landing", "Crouching", "Standing Up", "Turning Left", "Turning Right"
- Caveats:
- State "Sit on Ground" will play the default animation in addition to any override set. This is required for correct viewer behavior.
- Some states are transitional and have undefined behavior if set to continuously looping animations. These states are "PreJumping", "Landing", "Soft Landing" and "Standing Up".
- Benefits:
- Bug Fixes
- Fixed a simulator crash mode
- Slight region performance improvement when there are no pathfinding characters present
- Changes since 13.04.01.273300
- If llStopAnimation() is called with the default animation for the agent's current animation state, and the agent has overriden the animation for that state then the override will be stopped (BUG-2164)
- For example, if a user overrides his sit animation to be "yoga_sit" and then sits on a poseball, if that poseball calls 'llStopAnimation("sit")', then the user's "yoga_sit" animation will be stopped.
- Includes changes from Second Life Server 13.04.05.273580
- If llStopAnimation() is called with the default animation for the agent's current animation state, and the agent has overriden the animation for that state then the override will be stopped (BUG-2164)
13.04.05.273580
- This is a server HTTP improvement project
- Scheduled 2013-04-10, for RC Magnum, RC BlueSteel, and RC LeTigre
- Features
- More complete and more correct headers on texture and mesh fetches.
- The asset fetch responses, involving texture and mesh fetches, are fairly straight forward. More headers and correct headers will be returned. Viewers will begin to receive the following:
- Age
- Cache-Control
- Content-Encoding
- Content-Language
- Content-Length (for meshes)
- Content-Range (for 206 responses)
- Content-Type
- Etag
- Expires
- Last-Modified
- The 'Content-Type' for assets will start showing as image/x-j2c and application/vnd.ll.mesh for images and meshes, respectively. Old service behavior will still be present on the grid for a time. And as with HTTP in general, any of these headers may disappear or change in structure or meaning as permitted.
- The asset fetch responses, involving texture and mesh fetches, are fairly straight forward. More headers and correct headers will be returned. Viewers will begin to receive the following:
- Keepalive connections for some HTTP-based services
- The behavioral change for HTTP connections marks the beginning of support for persistent (keepalive) connections. Services transiting the capabilities router, at ports 12043 and 12046, may honor a request for keepalives and keep a connection open after request completion. These services may include such activities as texture and mesh fetching, event delivery to viewer, HTTP-In for LSL scripts, asset uploads and inventory operations. Benefits from keepalives include immediate and future throughput increases and less TCP connection churn (which often disrupts consumer-grade networking equipment).
- The exact set of services that will see this is expected to change over time.
- More complete and more correct headers on texture and mesh fetches.
- Changes since 13.04.01.273298

- New Features
- llGetObjectDetails() has three new flags: OBJECT_PHYSICS, OBJECT_PHANTOM, OBJECT_TEMP_ON_REZ. Each one returns a boolean integer indicating that object's settings corresponding to the new flag.
- By design, OBJECT_PHYSICS and OBJECT_PHANTOM always return 0 when called on an attachment or an agent
- llGetObjectDetails() has three new flags: OBJECT_PHYSICS, OBJECT_PHANTOM, OBJECT_TEMP_ON_REZ. Each one returns a boolean integer indicating that object's settings corresponding to the new flag.
- Bug Fixes
- Numerous crash fixes around mesh and physics subsystems
- Additional crash fixes
- Fixes since RC Magnum 12.11.21.267232
- Fixed a bug: parcels cannot be deeded to the group (BUG-927 )

12.11.09.266804
- This is a maint-server project
- Scheduled 2012-11-14, for RC BlueSteel, RC LeTigre, and RC Magnum channels
- New Features
- Linksets or single objects which have bounding boxes larger than 64m (in any dimension) are prevented from being rezzed if rezzing would cause the object to collide with an avatar (excluding the object owner). (BUG-166)
- Bug Fixes
- Script Time in the Statistics Bar now correctly shows 0ms when scripts are disabled in the sim (BUG-311)
- Script error messages now include information about the object's root prim, when certain operations fail due to the object's pathfinding setting (PATHBUG-198)
- Other misc. fixes, including crash fixes
- Changes since 12.11.05.266580
- Fixed a crash mode that was introduced with 12.11.05.266580 (the previous version of this project)
12.11.05.266580
- This is a maint-server project
- Scheduled 2012-11-07, for RC LeTigre and RC BlueSteel channels
- Features and Changes
- Linksets which have bounding boxes larger than 64m (in any dimension) are prevented from being rezzed if rezzing would cause the object to collide with an avatar (excluding the object owner). (BUG-166)
- Also includes all changes from Second Life RC Magnum 12.11.02.266530

- Other misc. fixes, including crash fixes
12.10.26.266333
- This is the server modernization project
- Scheduled 2012-11-01
- Features and Changes
- Updated the Havok physics engine to version 2012.1
- Enables Havok's "Collision Geometry Optimizer" for the terrain, which simplifies the physics shape of the terrain for improved performance.
- This can be disabled by region owners and estate managers with the Region Debug Console command "set optimize_terrain false".
- Includes a new LSL function to access simulator statistics, llGetSimStats.
- Usage: float llGetSimStats(integer stat_type)
- Currently, this function accepts only SIM_STAT_PCT_CHARS_STEPPED as its parameter, which returns the % of pathfinding characters skipped each frame, averaged over the last minute. The returned value corresponds to the "Characters Updated" stat in the viewer's Statistics Bar.
- Includes a new option for llCreateCharacter: CHARACTER_ACCOUNT_FOR_SKIPPED_FRAMES. Default is true to match pre-existing behavior. If set to false, character will not attempt to catch up on lost time when pathfinding performance is low, potentially providing more reliable movement (albeit while potentially appearing to be more stuttery).
- Changes to pathfinding character throttling, so that characters may be permitted to exceed the previous 50µs limit per frame if there is sufficient spare time available.
- Added a new parameter to llGetObjectDetails, OBJECT_PATHFINDING_TYPE, which returns the pathfinding setting of any object in the region. It returns an integer matching one of the following new constants:
- OPT_OTHER - returned for attachments, Linden trees and grass
- was OPT_UNKOWN
- OPT_LEGACY_LINKSET - returned for movable obstacles, movable phantoms, physical, and volumedetect objects
- OPT_AVATAR - returned for avatars
- OPT_CHARACTER - returned for pathfinding characters
- OPT_WALKABLE - returned for walkable objects
- OPT_STATIC_OBSTACLE - returned for static obstacles
- OPT_MATERIAL_VOLUME - returned for material volumes
- OPT_EXCLUSION_VOLUME - returned for exclusion volumes
- More details about pathfinding types can be found here
- OPT_OTHER - returned for attachments, Linden trees and grass
- Added a new option for llHTTPRequest(): HTTP_PRAGMA_NO_CACHE
- Usage: [HTTP_PRAGMA_NO_CACHE, integer send_header]
- When send_header is TRUE, the "Pragma: no-cache" header is sent by the script. This matches the default behavior.
- When send_header is FALSE, no "Pragma" header is sent by the script.
- See the HTTP specification for more details about this header.
- Other internal system changes
- Bug Fixes
- "Pragma: no-cache" llHTTPRequest() header bug
- Fixed new crashing bug
- Known Issues
- Mesh objects (such as vehicles) cannot physically cross from a region running Havok 2012.1 into a region running an older version of Havok, due to the upgrade to a newer version of the Havok physics engine. Currently (2012-10-17), RC LeTigre is the only channel with the latest Havok upgrade.

12.07.24.262437
- This is the Creator Tools project.
- We are enabling these functions in this channel.
- Scheduled 2012-07-25
- Added three new LSL functions:
- llAttachToAvatarTemp(integer attach_point) -- Follows the same convention as llAttachToAvatar, with the exception that the object will not create inventory for the user, and will disappear on detach, or disconnect. It should be noted that when an object is attached temporarily, a user cannot 'take' or 'drop' the object that is attached to them. The user is 'automatically' made the owner of the object. Temporary attached items cannot use the llTeleportAgent or llTeleportAgentGlobalCoords LSL functions.
- llTeleportAgent(key agent_uuid, string lm_name, vector landing_point, vector look_at_point) -- Teleport Agent allows the script to teleport an agent to either a local coordinate in the current region or to a remote location specified by a landmark. If the destination is local, the lm_name argument is a blank string. The landing point and look at point are respected for this call. If the destination is remote, the object must have a landmark in its inventory with the teleport agent script. lm_name refers to the name of the landmark in inventory. This function cannot be used in a script in an object attached using llAttachToAvatarTemp.
- llTeleportAgentGlobalCoords(key avatar, vector global_coordinates, vector region_coordinates, vector look_at) -- Teleports an agent to region_coordinates within a region at the specified global_coordinates. The agent lands facing the position defined by look_at local coordinates. A region's global coordinates can be retrieved using
llRequestSimulatorData(region_name, DATA_SIM_POS)
. This function cannot be used in a script in an object attached using llAttachToAvatarTemp.
- NOTES:
- The new LSL functions work with the current runtime permissions system and are precursor to future work with experience permissions. More information about the runtime permission is here: PERMISSION_TELEPORT.
- These functions only work on the RC regions and not grid wide.
- Bug Fixes
- SCR-342: llTeleportAgent() does not fail gracefully when specifying an invalid landmark name
- SVC-7966: Magnum RC, llTeleportAgent gives a wrong message

12.01.13.247734
- This "maint-server" project scheduled 2012-01-18
- Features
- New LSL function integer llSetRegionPos(vector position)
- The object with the script will move the root prim position to the given location. The position is any position within the region. If the position is below ground, it will be set to the ground level at that X,Y spot. The function has no delay or throttle.
- Returns 1 if the object is successfully placed within 0.1 m of position.
- Returns 0 and does not move the object if position is more than 10m off region or above 4096m.
- Returns 0 and does not move the object if the object is dynamic (has physics enabled).
- Returns 0 and does not move the object if the object can not move to position due to object entry rules, prim limits, bans, etc.
- The object with the script will move the root prim position to the given location. The position is any position within the region. If the position is below ground, it will be set to the ground level at that X,Y spot. The function has no delay or throttle.
- "frame_number" option added to llGetEnv()
- Returns an integer that represents the current 'frame' of the simulator. Generally only useful for specific debugging cases.
- Bug Fixes
- SVC-7466 A notecard holds more data than a script can read
- SVC-7520 Keyframe motion doesn't move towards the correct position when specified time is not an exact multiple of 1/45 seconds

11.10.03.242227
- This is the "Faster Scripts" project. scheduled 2011-10-05
- Faster script calls, most notably Mono llGet*() calls that access object parameters (such as llGetMass() or llGetPos()) but don't actually change any object parameters, since most of those calls have built-in delays that automatically throttle the rate at which they can loop.
- Run any LSL benchmark -- it should run faster in the new code given a similar simstate with any given number of objects and scripts.
- Some LSL benchmarks can be found at this wiki page:
- http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Category:LSL_Benchmark
- All of the benchmarks from the wiki are for math functions and as such will not show much improvement (see below) however the scripts provide good frameworks for observing performance improvements.
- Some benchmark improvements will be more notable than others. In particular:
- Mono benchmarks that primarily involve math functions (adding floats or integer, or even calls like llAbs()) will NOT show much improvement. This is because those operations tend to stay in the bytecode engine and do not execute any callbacks that require access to the object on which the script is running.
- Mono benchmarks that access object paramters (llGetPos()) should show the most speedup.
- LSL2 benchmarks that access object parameters should show measurable speedup, but since LSL is so slow already the proportional improvement will be less.
- The more objects in the simulator the greater the proportional gains. The object lookup scales as Order(log(N) + C) where C is some constant.
- So, the best expected percentage improvement would be from a single Mono script looping over something like llGetPos() in a region full of 15k objects.
- Fix for SVC-7319 Mesh vehicles cannot cross simborders
- New in 11.10.03.242227:

- New Features
11.07.12.235430
- "Avatar Visibility" project. deployed 2011-07-13
- Avatar Visibility
- This new feature adds the ability to control if residents on a parcel are visible to others outside that parcel, as well as the ability to see them. In other words, if TheFirst Resident is on one parcel and TheSecond Resident is on another, while this feature is enabled on either parcel, they will not see each other. Text chat on channel zero is blocked following the same rules.
- While this feature works with all viewer, a new version is required to change these options. In the version 2.8 viewer, the About Land / Options dialog will have a new checkbox.
- The llGetParcelDetails() function will now accept a new parameter PARCEL_DETAILS_SEE_AVATARS that may be passed into the function, and it will return an integer flag indicating if the setting is on or off.
- Both the large map and mini map work as before. Green dots will indicate the approximate location of an avatar, regardless of this new parcel setting.
- LSL sensors will function normally, and can detect the presence of avatars on parcels with this setting enabled.
- Text chat on channels other than zero are not blocked by this setting.
- If an avatar is on a vehicle with this feature enabled, the entire vehicle will not be seen.
- All existing parcels in Second Life default to the old behavior (showing residents on the parcel). To enable this feature on your parcel, you must have the new viewer with appropriate permissions, and then turn off the checkbox above.
- If the new viewer is used on an older simulator, the option will be checked and disabled.
- This new feature adds the ability to control if residents on a parcel are visible to others outside that parcel, as well as the ability to see them. In other words, if TheFirst Resident is on one parcel and TheSecond Resident is on another, while this feature is enabled on either parcel, they will not see each other. Text chat on channel zero is blocked following the same rules.
- Sound Audibility
- This feature adds new parcel controls to limit the sounds that may be played by avatars. These are sounds from gestures, played from the viewer inventory, or from scripts on attachments. The parcel owner (or group member with powers to change parcel settings) can set the parcel to allow avatar sounds from everyone, only members of the parcel group, or nobody.
- A new SecondLife viewer is required to change these settings from their default values. In the version 2.8 viewer, the About Land / Sound dialog box will have a new control:
- This feature adds new parcel controls to limit the sounds that may be played by avatars. These are sounds from gestures, played from the viewer inventory, or from scripts on attachments. The parcel owner (or group member with powers to change parcel settings) can set the parcel to allow avatar sounds from everyone, only members of the parcel group, or nobody.
- All existing parcels will default to having this set to "Everybody" and thus behave as before this feature was introduced.
11.06.28.234196
- Josh's "maint-server" project. deployed 2011-06-29
- Features
- Added new parameter to
llHTTPRequest
-HTTP_VERBOSE_THROTTLE
. Value is 4, type is integer. If specified in the parameters list as a non-zero value (true), the script will emit errors when the throttle for outgoing requests is hit. If zero (false), the script will remain silent on errors. The default value is true.
Example:key http_request_id = llHTTPRequest("http://example.com/", [HTTP_VERBOSE_THROTTLE, 0], "");
- SCR-67: Added new constant
PRIM_OMEGA
for use withllGetPrimitiveParams
,llSetPrimitiveParams
,llGetLinkPrimitiveParams
,llSetLinkPrimitiveParams
,llSetLinkPrimitiveParamsFast
. This gives access to the "target omega" property of primitives which can be set viallTargetOmega
, but allows getting the current target omega for a prim (previously not supported) and setting the target omega on a child prim (previously only doable with a script on each prim).
- Added new parameter to
- Features
The list has the signature [vector axis, float spinrate, float gain]
like the parameters for llTargetOmega
Examples:
// Set this prim rotating llTargetOmega(<1.0,3.0,0.5>, TWO_PI, 1.0); // Read back this prim's current target omega list current_omega = llListToList( llGetPrimitiveParams([PRIM_OMEGA]); // should be [PRIM_OMEGA, axis, spinrate, gain] vector axis = llList2Vector(current_omega, 1); // Should be <1.0,3.0,0.5> float spinrate = llList2Float(current_omega, 2); // Should be TWO_PI float gain = llList2Float(current_omega, 3); // Should be 1.0 // Set all child prims rotating llSetLinkPrimitiveParamsFast(LINK_ALL_CHILDREN, [PRIM_OMEGA, <1.0,3.0,0.5>, TWO_PI, 1.0]);

11.06.21.233291
- Josh's "maint-server" project. scheduled 2011-06-22
- Features
- Added new parameter to
llHTTPRequest
-HTTP_VERBOSE_THROTTLE
. Value is 4, type is integer. If specified in the parameters list as a non-zero value (true), the script will emit errors when the throttle for outgoing requests is hit. If zero (false), the script will remain silent on errors. The default value is true.
- Added new parameter to
- Features
Example:
key http_request_id = llHTTPRequest("http://example.com/", [HTTP_VERBOSE_THROTTLE, 0], "");
- SCR-67: Added new constant
PRIM_OMEGA
for use withllGetPrimitiveParams
,llSetPrimitiveParams
,llGetLinkPrimitiveParams
,llSetLinkPrimitiveParams
,llSetLinkPrimitiveParamsFast
. This gives access to the "target omega" property of primitives which can be set viallTargetOmega
, but allows getting the current target omega for a prim (previously not supported) and setting the target omega on a child prim (previously only doable with a script on each prim).
- SCR-67: Added new constant
The list has the signature [vector axis, float spinrate, float gain]
like the parameters for llTargetOmega
Examples:
// Set this prim rotating llTargetOmega(<1.0,3.0,0.5>, TWO_PI, 1.0); // Read back this prim's current target omega list current_omega = llListToList( llGetPrimitiveParams([PRIM_OMEGA]); // should be [PRIM_OMEGA, axis, spinrate, gain] vector axis = llList2Vector(current_omega, 1); // Should be <1.0,3.0,0.5> float spinrate = llList2Float(current_omega, 2); // Should be TWO_PI float gain = llList2Float(current_omega, 3); // Should be 1.0 // Set all child prims rotating llSetLinkPrimitiveParamsFast(LINK_ALL_CHILDREN, [PRIM_OMEGA, <1.0,3.0,0.5>, TWO_PI, 1.0]);

11.06.14.232746
- The "Group Chat" project. deployed 2011-06-15
- These are the simulator side fixes for group chat.
- Enable addressing chat message to more than one agent in a region
- A protocol was implemented on the sim and in the multiagent chat backbone service to enable addressing of a chat message to multiple agents. When more than one recipient agent is present in the same region a single request is made to the sim addressed to all recipients. Previously a request was made for each agent needlessly duplicating requests.

11.04.26.227686
- Andrew's "maint-server" project, deployed 2011-04-27
- Bug Fixes
- SVC-6055 Avatar position reverts to original sittarget in simcrossing
- SVC-6808 Muting a new-style 'Resident' avatar is ineffective when you're offline
- SVC-6859 llTeleportAgentHome on an agent not over your land shouldn't result in the target getting the message
- SVC-6882 Mini-map shows multiple dots for one avatar, but avatar is not ghosted
- SVC-5880 Vehicles "Jumping" when crossing prims
- This is caused by the physics engine reporting collision info for "hidden" faces (the vertical faces where the road objects butt up against each other). It has existed since the very beginning of SL and affects all objects (not just vehicles) however it became particularly bad for vehicles after the physics engine upgrade to Havok4 in 2008.04.
- To repair broken vehicles a "workaround" was introduced to reduce the effect: vehicle collision events get special scrutiny and some collision events are removed. It helps, but is not 100% effective and also has some side effects such as causing vehicles to sometimes partially penetrate curbs, walls, and other obstacles, or even tunnel through walls for small vehicles.
- To solve this problem correctly in Havok7 a config parameter was tweaked in the physics engine. Also, the aforementioned workaround for vehicles has been removed, so some vehicle behavior may change. Besides a reduction of vehicles penetrating obstacles they may also "jump" more when crossing seams that are not quite lined up right -- short obstacles may cause vehicles to jump where they used to roll smoothly.
- SVC-6900 Group-owned objects located in private estates cannot send IMs to offline avatars

- Bug Fixed: SVC-6723: Scripted and linked objects not behaving properly when crossing parcel boundaries
11.01.25.219640
- Interest List project deployed 2011-01-26
- Features
- Interest List Improvements
- The Interest List is part of the simulator that controls how updates are sent to viewers. It is a core part of the simulator responsible for timely updates.
- This version should changes the way updates for static (non-moving) objects are detected and sent to the viewer. This should be visible as:
- Faster region load times. It should take less time to see what is around you after a teleport or log in.
- Faster updates when moving in a region. While flying, for example, objects should appear sooner than before.
- Interest List Improvements
