- [17:00] Sebastean Steamweaver: I haven't actually seen what LL had to say about that in the aftermath.
- [17:00] Sebastean Steamweaver: There's been a huge discussion about it in the SL dev groups though.
- [17:00] Sebastean Steamweaver: Hey Simon
- [17:00] Simon Linden: hello
- [17:00] Sebastean Steamweaver: Is Andrew back?
- [17:00] Kaluura Boa: Hello everybody
- [17:00] Fred Rookstown: Yeah, all I see is a couple of Lindens jumping around in the blogs basically asking everyone to continue a discussion that is really going nowhere
- [17:00] Psi Merlin: Hello Simon
- [17:00] Welcome to Linden office hours
- [17:00] Simon Linden: I'm not sure .... haven't heard from him today, I'll go see...
- [17:01] Ardy Lay: Hi Simon
- [17:01] Kaluura Boa: Rez, rez, rez...
- [17:01] Moon Metty: hellooo :)
- [17:01] Fred Rookstown: Hi Morg
- [17:01] Rex Cronon: hello everybody
- [17:01] Simon Linden: hmm, I don't see Andrew around, looks like he's still out
- [17:02] Sebastean Steamweaver: Heya Moon, Morg, and all.
- [17:02] Morgaine Dinova: Hi Fred, Seb, Moon :-)
- [17:02] Moon Metty: hi hi
- [17:02] Morgaine Dinova: Hi Simon
- [17:02] Latif Khalifa: hello all :)
- [17:02] Rex Cronon: hiii
- [17:02] Morgaine Dinova: Hi Latif
- [17:02] Simon Linden: Let's see, annoucments... I think there's the next server (1.32) pilot roll coming in a week or two
- [17:03] Moon Metty: the bugfixes look good
- [17:03] Sebastean Steamweaver: Anything exciting in it?
- [17:03] Fred Rookstown: Does that actually fix the recent notecard exploits or are they still broken?
- [17:03] Dilbert Dilweg: Hopefuly Sim performance fixes
- [17:03] Moon Metty: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Release_Notes/Second_Life_Beta_Server/1.32
- [17:03] Simon Linden: I'm pretty clueless on the big items ... some bug fixes did go in
- [17:03] Morgaine Dinova: I hope that the fact that there's a dog's head on the table has nothing to do with my katana.
- [17:04] Moon Metty: svc-3819 is in 1.32 too
- [17:04] in estate tools is inaccurate
- [17:04] Arawn Spitteler: So, we aren't tryingto finish 1.30.7?
- [17:04] Simon Linden: The notecard exploit should be fixed, I think
- [17:04] Fred Rookstown: FINALLY
- [17:04] Simon Linden: Hello Andrew
- [17:04] Fred Rookstown: @ SVC 3819
- [17:04] Moon Metty: hi andrew :)
- [17:04] Andrew Linden: Hi everyone.
- [17:04] Arawn Spitteler: Thisis a blue kitty friendly Service Animal
- [17:04] Rex Cronon: hellor andrew
- [17:04] Morgaine Dinova: Hi Andrew
- [17:04] Sebastean Steamweaver: Hey Andrew
- [17:05] GG Office Hours HUD v1.5: 5:00 PM: Andrew Linden: Technical issues, SL architecture, physics engine
http://slurl.com/secondlife/Denby/213/45/34 (Started 5 minutes ago)
- [17:05] Psi Merlin: Hi Andrew
- [17:05] Simon Linden: That sit position was hurting my head
- [17:06] Arawn Spitteler: Hi, AdrewI'm prbably in a freeze crash. Want to mention http://jira.secondlife.com/browse/SVC-4944 which was improved by a Burning La Restart, but remains a problem in my own sim
- [17:06] Sit Action Objects, without Sit Targets, aren't working in my build.
- [17:06] Andrew Linden: I think Phoenix did most of the work to fix the notecard upload exploit, but there was a bug. Babbage and Scouse fixed the bug, and Joe Linden helped push the priority at the end so that it got out in 1.30 rather than 1.32.
- [17:06] Arawn Spitteler: If I culd ge agent target, I could do a lot better than this table
- [17:07] Moon Metty: now we are left with no-trans notes not saving
- [17:07] Fred Rookstown: llSitTarget needs to be set before the changed() event will be triggered, if that's what you're asking
- [17:07] Moon Metty: SVC-4937
- [17:07] Server is experiencing unexpected difficulties error when saving a notecard inside a prim.
- [17:08] Arawn Spitteler: Changed event works on changed links, so sit targete never had to be set before
- [17:08] Morgaine Dinova: Oh, is that what's caused the sit breakage all across SL, a change in timing of changed() event?
- [17:09] Morgaine Dinova: I'm still deeply embedded everywhere
- [17:10] Andrew Linden: There is a bug that causes scripted object links to fail... sometimes.
- [17:10] Andrew Linden: That one is also intermitent and can vanish when the region is restarted.
- [17:10] Andrew Linden: I wonder if that is related to SVC-4944
- [17:11] Sebastean Steamweaver: The JIRA helper is silent o.0
- [17:11] Fred Rookstown: BTW, any news on fixing the damn region freeze bug caused by mono?
- [17:11] Arawn Spitteler: Scripted Object inks? Mine is ust an inability to sit, on a basic cube
- [17:11] Simon Linden: No, but Babbage and another dev were looking at it
- [17:11] Arawn Spitteler simply opts not to use Mono, and his scripts compile faster
- [17:11] Andrew Linden: No, the jira helper will not re-mention an item if it was brought up not too long ago. Dunno what the timeout is on it.
- [17:12] Fred Rookstown: Oh, Babbage is alive? He never shows his face anymore at officehours...
- [17:12] Arawn Spitteler: I think it'sabout half a hour
- [17:12] Moon Metty: one hour, or 12 other jira issues, Andrew
- [17:12] Andrew Linden: yes, looks like Babbage was making some progress tracking down the lag on object rez, relating to MONO scripts
- [17:13] Dilbert Dilweg: Looks Like that one is being ignored Fred
- [17:13] Simon Linden: Well, he is alive, I can confirm that
- [17:13] Andrew Linden: Babbage sent out an email talking about it. I skimmed it. He had found two or three possible hot spots, but wasn't done tracking it down.
- [17:13] Rex Cronon: sai. did u link to images on your harddrive?
- [17:13] Rex Cronon: oopes. wrong chat
- [17:14] Psi Merlin: Anything to help the situation will be most welcome.
- [17:14] Ardy Lay: Hello Ann
- [17:15] Sebastean Steamweaver: Andrew, I had some questions about attachment permissions?
- [17:15] Andrew Linden: I'm out of touch with the current state of server-1.32. Dunno what they're doing there. Simon, you're closer to the 1.32 dev business these days right? or is your main project slated for 1.34?
- [17:15] Andrew Linden: Go ahead Sebastean.
- [17:15] Simon Linden: Well, 1.32 is lurching towards a pilot roll in a week or two
- [17:16] Simon Linden: Most of the stuff I'm working on is in 1.34
- [17:16] Sebastean Steamweaver: When wearing an attachment, if the attachment is transferrable, you aren't able to put no-transfer inventory into them. I heard this was done because when you detached the attachment, it retained its transferpermission. Is there any way to change it so an attachment's permission can update, and re-enable putting no-trans objects into transferable items?
- [17:16] Kaluura Boa: Ho yeah, please!
- [17:17] Moon Metty: scary
- [17:17] reddot99 Republic: modify is even more important there
- [17:17] Andrew Linden: I hadn't heard about that Sebastian, but I'm not surprised.
- [17:18] Andrew Linden: I think yes, it would be possible in theory to fix it -- probably a medium bug to fix.
- [17:18] reddot99 Republic: it used to be ok,
- [17:18] Moon Metty: it would mean slamming an unrezzed object
- [17:19] Fred Rookstown: In other words, it'll be addressed in about 4 years.
- [17:19] Sebastean Steamweaver: It makes it difficult for some products, especially scripts, that one person would product and another person would put into their attachments, which may or may not be transfer.
- [17:19] Arawn Spitteler: Hihi, Hayleigh, Empty seat tends to be in the sothwest
- [17:19] Arawn Spitteler: southeast
- [17:20] Fred Rookstown: Next to the guy with the red hat
- [17:20] Fred Rookstown: :P
- [17:20] Simon Linden: Between Andrew and Fred
- [17:20] Hayleigh Firehawk: thank you
- [17:20] Sebastean Steamweaver: He who sits First, sits Last.
- [17:20] reddot99 Republic: andrew, i have a purely physics related inquiry, is there any wa y to ensure a prim stops objects that are fired at it, like bullets and barriers
- [17:20] Arawn Spitteler: If an inventory item is placed in another, the object should get a changed event, which migh check content perms
- [17:20] Rex Cronon: ions are useless if the chair is not visible
- [17:20] Fred Rookstown: red: That's a problem in FPSes
- [17:21] reddot99 Republic: exactly, where does it look like i just came from?
- [17:21] Andrew Linden: reddot99, could you elaborate? You want the object that is hit to stop the bullets?
- [17:21] Fred Rookstown: From what I've seen in the source engine, objects with physical velocitiees greater than sometimes will go right through an object without even being slightly deflected
- [17:22] reddot99 Republic: what fred said
- [17:22] Simon Linden: That's the classic 'bullet through paper' problem with simulations
- [17:22] Fred Rookstown: Think it has to do with the objet going too fast for the physics system to track collisions
- [17:22] Arawn Spitteler: Longer bullets?
- [17:22] Andrew Linden: correct Fred, moving objects don't move smoothly -- they pop to their next position
- [17:22] Moon Metty: lol arawn
- [17:22] reddot99 Republic: except, its meant to be a wall, not a peice of paper
- [17:22] Andrew Linden: the physics engine runs at 45 fps max
- [17:22] Moon Metty: that might work
- [17:22] Fred Rookstown: Source engine solves this problem by firing rays with a tracer particle, instead of an actual bullet
- [17:23] Andrew Linden: er... 45fps period, as far as the engine is concerned.
- [17:23] Simon Linden: It comes down to how it calculates the move to the next position
- [17:23] Andrew Linden: each engine step forward is 1/45th of a second
- [17:23] Andrew Linden: so you can calculate the distance of the "jump" of a moving object if you know its velocity
- [17:23] reddot99 Republic: longer bullets, messes up because it causes them to collide with each other
- [17:23] Fred Rookstown: Maybe a speed cap on objects?
- [17:23] Morgaine Dinova: Arawn's actually right. A "bullet" is actually two things, a short object plus a long effect. Let the physics handle the long effect, not the short object.
- [17:24] Andrew Linden: yes, you need to get fancy to make reliable+fast bullets
- [17:24] Fred Rookstown: We already have a 250m/s speed cap on avs.
- [17:24] Arawn Spitteler: I'd think the Smulato would elongate the bullets, to check for collisions
- [17:24] reddot99 Republic: 250 applies to everything
- [17:24] Andrew Linden: a few gun creators have worked around the problem for some improvements
- [17:24] Rex Cronon: r bullets supposed to go 5mps
- [17:24] reddot99 Republic: faster rex,
- [17:25] reddot99 Republic: many rifles break the sound barrier
- [17:25] Fred Rookstown: But what's the terminal velocity, red?
- [17:25] reddot99 Republic: 250,
- [17:25] Andrew Linden: so what you really want reddot99 is for the physics engine to take more steps per second
- [17:25] reddot99 Republic: here,
- [17:25] Rex Cronon: i forgot to put the smilly face at the end of my previous sentence:)
- [17:25] Fred Rookstown: One idea may be to factor in air resistance/drag?
- [17:26] Fred Rookstown: that would slow the bullet in-flight
- [17:26] Andrew Linden: also... the modern Havok engines can do what is called "continuous collisions" which handles the "jump too far each step" problem
- [17:26] Andrew Linden: however, the continuous collisions feature was CPU-expensive to turn on, so we never did. We're not using it.
- [17:26] reddot99 Republic: no, i thnk a sorta effect borrowed from relativity is relavent, as things accelorate, they get shorrter, or in this case, longer,
- [17:27] Arawn Spitteler: I'd expect, you don't hve to calculate each step, if you extend the trajectory as a solid
- [17:27] Fred Rookstown: Andrew: Have you checked that feature's performance on H6?
- [17:27] Andrew Linden: No Fred
- [17:28] reddot99 Republic: yes, please look at better physics engines ,.<
- [17:28] You decline Club Zero Gravity from A group member named Ranchan Weidman.
- [17:28] Arawn Spitteler: We could proably wite a better physics engine
- [17:28] Fred Rookstown: No, Arawn, just no.
- [17:28] Fred Rookstown: ;_;
- [17:28] Andrew Linden: We might hire a new dev who has some experience using the Havok phys engine in previosu work. It would be nice to get some more Havok experience in the lab.
- [17:29] reddot99 Republic: not unless you have a degree in physics,
- [17:29] Fred Rookstown: You fired a guy who had H4 experience.
- [17:29] Arawn Spitteler: Could you et such a person past psychological screening?
- [17:29] Moon Metty: lol
- [17:30] Andrew Linden: Arawn, it is a lot of work to write a good physics engine.
- [17:30] Moon Metty: i can only imagine, Andrew
- [17:30] Rex Cronon: gee reddot99. u don't need a degree in physics to compute the trajectory of an object:)
- [17:30] office hours is half over
- [17:30] Fred Rookstown: And seeing as how someone at the lab put too much trust in the client, I wouldn't trust them that much...
- [17:31] Arawn Spitteler: Whoever gave us SVC-93 didn't hve a degree of rotation
- [17:31] ROTATION and llSetRot incorrectly implemented for child prims
- [17:31] Andrew Linden: computing the trajector is not hard. Computing the collisions and their results, accurately and quickly, is the hard part.
- [17:32] reddot99 Republic: also, i just remembered, could we ge a restitution coefficient? if i spelled that right?
- [17:32] Rex Cronon: isn't that what havok is supposed to do:)
- [17:32] reddot99 Republic: get,
- [17:32] Andrew Linden: reddot99, you want to be able to set the restitution?
- [17:32] Arawn Spitteler: Restitute?
- [17:32] Simon Linden: For collision 'bounciness' and such?
- [17:32] Andrew Linden: right now the various materials have different restitutions, but you can only chose the materials we have available.
- [17:33] reddot99 Republic: exactly
- [17:33] Andrew Linden: yes, 'restitution' refers to how much energy is concerved on "bounce"
- [17:33] reddot99 Republic: oh they do andrew?
- [17:33] reddot99 Republic: could we get a list?
- [17:33] Andrew Linden: The materials have distinct restitution, however you don't have much choice... just the few materials available.
- [17:34] Andrew Linden: Also, the restitution of the materials might not be realistic -- there was some tweaking to help keep the physics engine stable.
- [17:34] reddot99 Republic: yeah, but it'd be nice to be able to tell what it is,
- [17:34] Andrew Linden: I think most of the values are a bit low (more lost energy) than real materials.
- [17:34] Andrew Linden: Oh hrm...
- [17:34] Andrew Linden: hang on...
- [17:35] reddot99 Republic: tweaking meaning making sure it doesnt go over 1 or under 0?
- [17:36] reddot99 Republic: i would like to know if theres a material with a value of zero,
- [17:36] Fred Rookstown: Tweaking as in making sure that 250 rubber objects being rezzed in one spot != crashed server
- [17:36] Simon Linden: yeah, anything above or below that would get interesting
- [17:36] Arawn Spitteler: BAM Ceramic?
- [17:37] reddot99 Republic: above would be a ball that bounce hieght increasing with each bounce
- [17:37] Arawn Spitteler: Flubber
- [17:37] Rex Cronon: it would be nice if when we set the material for a prim the physics engine would take it int consideration:)
- [17:37] Andrew Linden: Hrm... I think the physics restituions are in the open-source bit of code
- [17:37] Andrew Linden: F32 const LLMaterialTable::RESTITUTION_MIN = 0.02f;
F32 const LLMaterialTable::RESTITUTION_LAND = LLMaterialTable::RESTITUTION_MIN;
- [17:37] Fred Rookstown gasps
- [17:38] reddot99 Republic: theres a material max?
- [17:38] Rex Cronon: ?
- [17:38] Morgaine Dinova: No dilithium?
- [17:38] Andrew Linden: yeah the MAX is used in the ::setRestitution() method to ensure that someone doesn't accidentally set it too high
- [17:39] Fred Rookstown: Setting the land restitution to rubber would be hilarious.
- [17:39] Rex Cronon: why doesn't matter what matterial the bullets r made of? all of them bounce the same:(
- [17:39] Andrew Linden: if you set it too high then you can have instability in the physics engine
- [17:39] reddot99 Republic: and also,i'd like to ask for a restitution of zero material
- [17:39] Fred Rookstown: yeah
- [17:39] reddot99 Republic: ie, "glue"
- [17:39] Fred Rookstown: 0 bounce would be great, my grappling hook keeps ricogheting off of stuff
- [17:39] Andrew Linden: ok, I'll make a note. Zero restitution wouldn't be too hard.
- [17:39] reddot99 Republic: exactly
- [17:40] Moon Metty: good idea, glue
- [17:40] Rex Cronon: bullets would benefit from a zero value:)
- [17:40] Fred Rookstown saves list
- [17:40] Arawn Spitteler: Glue mightstick long enough, to collide at the point of collision
- [17:40] Andrew Linden: not "glue" so much as ... half-filled bean bag
- [17:40] Moon Metty: lol right
- [17:41] Moon Metty: real glue may have side effects
- [17:41] Fred Rookstown: Wait
- [17:41] reddot99 Republic: i want an easier way to do sticky grenades
- [17:41] Simon Linden: Right, something hitting a wall would stop, then fall to the ground
- [17:41] Moon Metty: :)
- [17:41] Fred Rookstown: Wouldn't glue be simulated with a negative restitution?
- [17:42] Simon Linden: Negative would push you in the direction you were going, not bouncing back
- [17:42] Andrew Linden: uh... negative restitution would be a bad idea
- [17:42] Rex Cronon: nally with glue u could play some practical jokes infolving chairs and the eople sitting on them:)
- [17:42] Twisted Laws: collision_start(integer n) { llSetStatus(STATUS_PHYSICS,FALSE); }
- [17:42] Rex Cronon: finally with*
- [17:42] Arawn Spitteler: Try Ethyl Btyrate
- [17:42] reddot99 Republic: its not fast enough twisted
- [17:42] Fred Rookstown: Twisted: You forgot lag
- [17:42] reddot99 Republic: and fails in laggy sims
- [17:43] Arawn Spitteler: Yeah, the problem with cllisions, is that we don't get historic data
- [17:43] Twisted Laws: if the llDetectedPos is right, you can set pos back to that pos
- [17:43] Fred Rookstown: it rarely is.
- [17:43] reddot99 Republic: no, that sets center of detected object
- [17:44] Moon Metty: Andrew, i had an idea about encroachment
- [17:44] reddot99 Republic: quite useless if you have a linked object
- [17:44] Fred Rookstown: even worse is a lack of hitnormals
- [17:44] Andrew Linden: Go ahead Moon.
- [17:44] Moon Metty: it seems a bit silly at first
- [17:44] Moon Metty: you have been trying to make server code
- [17:44] Fred Rookstown: so that bulletholes or blood can be rotated to match the prim's face
- [17:45] Moon Metty: but the server doesn't always know where everything is
- [17:45] Moon Metty: a client does, though
- [17:45] Moon Metty: so i was thinking
- [17:45] Fred Rookstown: No, don't trust the client with ANYTHING.
- [17:45] Moon Metty: what if you make a Linden Bot to do the detecting?
- [17:45] Moon Metty: it would be like mobile server code
- [17:45] Fred Rookstown: Never, ever trust a client.
- [17:45] Andrew Linden: actually, the server does know where everything is.
- [17:46] Fred Rookstown: And the physics engine is supposed to keep track of positions.
- [17:46] Andrew Linden: Give an example where the server does not know what the client does.
- [17:46] Andrew Linden: Hrm... particles may be.
- [17:46] Moon Metty: sculpties
- [17:46] reddot99 Republic: particles
- [17:46] reddot99 Republic: animations
- [17:46] Moon Metty: client side rotating objects
- [17:46] Fred Rookstown: Clouds (arguably)
- [17:46] reddot99 Republic: lltarget mega
- [17:46] Andrew Linden: Well, I'd like to give sculpties better physics shapes
- [17:46] reddot99 Republic: omega
- [17:46] Andrew Linden: then the server woudl know
- [17:47] Moon Metty: alright, but a bot could work, in theory
- [17:47] Andrew Linden: yeah you're right, client-side rotating objects
- [17:47] Simon Linden: yeah, lltargetomega can be misleading or misused
- [17:47] Fred Rookstown: Steal the code from OpenMetaverse, they have decent sculpties last I checked...
- [17:47] Rex Cronon: it might be easier if we could select the physics shape that havak sees for a sculpties
- [17:47] Moon Metty: and the benefit is, that you can update it without changing the server
- [17:47] Fred Rookstown: Entire walkable landscapes made of gigantic sculpties
- [17:47] Simon Linden: yep, and other objects too
- [17:47] Kaluura Boa: About physics shapes, will the meshes also be spheres for Havok?
- [17:47] Moon Metty: a resident could call the bot
- [17:47] Fred Rookstown: No no no
- [17:48] Moon Metty: point out the encroaching objects
- [17:48] Fred Rookstown: No Linden bots.
- [17:48] Fred Rookstown: If you have to use bots, you're doing it wrong
- [17:48] Moon Metty: and deal with it
- [17:48] Andrew Linden: Kaluura, ask Qarl Linden about mesh physics. I think he's working on the mesh project.
- [17:48] Rex Cronon: some sculpties r better as balls, others as cubes, and even as torus:)
- [17:48] Kaluura Boa: OK... I'll do
- [17:48] Andrew Linden: Yes Rex, it would be nice if the collision approximations could be selected.
- [17:49] Andrew Linden: Or perhaps if there were an algorithm that would find best-fit against a set of simple convex shapes.
- [17:50] Andrew Linden: I would love to work on such a project. I have little hope of getting to it until we hire many more devs.
- [17:50] Arawn Spitteler: Then, youll be developing the devs
- [17:50] Moon Metty: hehe
- [17:50] Fred Rookstown: LL seems deadset on losing as much money as possible with some of the recent projects they're doing.
- [17:50] Fred Rookstown: So you may be seeing pinkslips instead
- [17:50] Arawn Spitteler: Yes, but that's under the NDA
- [17:51] Moon Metty: mmm, it's strictly viewer-side
- [17:52] Moon Metty: but i had this bright idea too: VWR-15852
- [17:52]
- [17:52] Simon Linden: Hmm, interesting. Sort of like the no-entry walls?
- [17:52] Moon Metty: yeah Simon
- [17:53] Arawn Spitteler: Encroachment walls would detect objects, at their centers?
- [17:53] Andrew Linden: Hrm... Moon for encroachment solutions we talked about the aggresive anti-encroachment per-parcel setting
- [17:53] Simon Linden: This is just a building tool
- [17:53] Moon Metty: it's just a visual aid
- [17:53] Moon Metty: for builders
- [17:53] Andrew Linden: if such a setting were available, and the viewr knew about it, then it could enforce the llTargetOmega() objects
- [17:53] Fred Rookstown: I'm liking that encroachment wall idea...
- [17:54] Moon Metty: let the residents know what they're doing, and you get a lot less load on support
- [17:54] Arawn Spitteler: So, what we design, would stay inside our walls, rather than running off?
- [17:54] Moon Metty: :)
- [17:54] Fred Rookstown: Especially since the sims I administer require users to build in the sky due to frequent terraforming by the owner.
- [17:54] reddot99 Republic: would also like a set hp function for objects, wandering back to combat related physiics issues <.<
- [17:55] Simon Linden: If we had that, there'd be less excuse for accidentally encroaching onto another parcel
- [17:55] Andrew Linden: yes, we talked about a visual indicator in the UI when people try to place objects where the encroachment rules clearly would prevent them -- it would need to be written eventually
- [17:55] Andrew Linden: er... we've kicked that one around the lab
- [17:55] Simon Linden: This could be it
- [17:55] Arawn Spitteler: Oh, before th hour,where arre transcripts going? I wanted to show someone how seriously Linen Labs was taking her honey drop
- [17:55] Ann Otoole grumbles or if people knew how to use a calculator they would not have encroachment issues...
- [17:55] office hours is almost over
- [17:55] Andrew Linden: Arawn, I've been collecting transcripts but have fallen out of habit of publishing them.
