=Introduction=

Since OpenSimulator 0.7.2, a number of functions are provided for for creating and manipulating server-side NPCs (Non Player Characters). These replace the previous functions, that had stopped working by OpenSimulator 0.7.1.1 (possibly broken since OpenSimulator 0.6.9).

The general philosophy in creating these new functions is to

# Give script writers the simple tools needed to create more sophisticated behaviour.
# Avoid duplicating existing LSL and OSSL functions. For instance, finding out what state an agent is in can be done through llGetAgentInfo() rather than creating a special NPC function.

NPCs are controlled via a script which must be in the same region as the NPC. This could be housed in an attachment that is attached to the avatar.

Server-side NPCs cannot leave the region in which they were born. If you want region crossing behaviour, please look at the alternative NPC options on the [[NPC]] wiki page.

Server-side NPC appearance is saved and loaded by serializing the appearance data structure to a notecard present in the same prim as the script. The required textures will be preserved when an OAR is saved and loaded.

The current appearance data format (as seen in notecards created by appearing saving) is the same used for the OpenSimulator wire format and so is not designed to be edited directly. With great care it is possible, see [[Appearance Formats]] for more details but it's not recommended unless you really, really need to do it.

= Enabling =

To use these functions, in the OpenSim.ini file you will need the following config

# Enabled = true set in the [NPC] section.
# Enabled = true set in the [XEngine] section.
# AllowOSFunctions = true in the [XEngine] section.
# OSFunctionThreatLevel = VeryHigh in the [XEngine] section. The functions osAgentSaveAppearance(), osAvatarPlayAnimation() and osAvatarStopAnimation() need this level. If you don't need these functions, then a "High" level will suffice.

See [[Configuring Simulator Parameters#Getting information about parameters]] if you need to double check that these parameters have been set correctly.

= Notes =

* When using your avatar to model appearance before saving, you will need to wait a few seconds before invoking any save appearance command. This is because appearance saving currently operates on a timer in order to manage multiple appearance updates from the viewer.
* When using your avatar to model appearance, if you want to reposition attachments on the NPC you will need to
# Reposition them on yourself
# Detach them to inventory
# Reattach them
# Save the appearance
This is because at the time of writing (OpenSimulator 0.7.5), saving appearance data does not trigger saving of current attachment positions though it probably should.
* OpenSimulator 0.7.3-rc1 introduces the concept of 'owned' and 'unowned' NPC. An 'owned' NPC is one where only the creating script and other scripts with the same owner can manipulate the NPC. An 'unowned' NPC is one where any script with the right permissions (as defined in the [XEngine] configuration section) can manipulate it. In OpenSimulator 0.7.3, all avatars are 'owned' by default unless otherwise specified in the osNpcCreate() call.

= Sensing =

llAgentSensor() can be used to set up a sensor that will detected NPCs instead/of as well as other region entities.

In OpenSimulator 0.7.2, LSL sensors will detect NPCs as ordinary agents.

In OpenSimulator 0.7.3-rc1 onwards, unless otherwise specified, NPCs will only be detected using the OpenSimulator-specific NPC flag, e.g.

As of git master bcfc392 (Fri Jul 20 21:08:04 2012), the constant OS_NPC should now be used instead of NPC, in order to avoid future issues if LL decide to use NPC themselves for some other function. The NPC constant will be deprecated in the forthcoming OpenSimulator 0.7.4 release but will remain useble.

<source lang="lsl">
//Author: mewtwo0641

list keys = [];
key npc;
string toucher;
key toucherkey;
vector toucherPos;
integer npc_on = FALSE;

default
{
touch_start(integer x)
{
toucherkey = llDetectedKey(0);
toucherPos = llDetectedPos(0);
vector npcPos = llGetPos() + <1,1,1>;

if(npc_on == FALSE)
{
npc = osNpcCreate("Fred", "Flintstone", npcPos, toucherkey);
npc_on = TRUE;
llSensor("", "", AGENT | NPC, 96.0, PI); //Will always return NPC key regardless of npc create option
return;
}

if(npc_on == TRUE)
{
osNpcRemove(npc);
llResetScript();
}
}

sensor(integer num)
{
keys = [];
integer i = 0;

for(i; i < num; i++)
{
keys += llDetectedKey(i);
}

llOwnerSay(llDumpList2String(keys, "\n"));
}

no_sensor()
{
keys = [];
}
}
</source>

You can get NPCs to be detected as AGENTs again using the OS_NPC_SENSE_AS_AGENT option below in osNpcCreate().

The justification is that detecting NPCs as AGENTs by default may make some scripts unusable (e.g. radars that know nothing about NPCs). However, conversely other scripts may not behave as expected if NPCs aren't sensed as agents (e.g. doors that open automatically for avatars would not open for NPCs).

From OpenSimulator git master commit ecf7bb26 (Fri Jul 20 21:36:33 2012), llGetDetectedType() will set the OS_NPC flag if an NPC was detected. If the NPC was created with the OS_NPC_SENSE_AS_AGENT option then the AGENT flag will also be set.

= Data Formats =
For more information about the format used to store appearance information in notecards, see [[Appearance Formats]].

= Functions =

== Create and Remove ==
=== [[osNpcCreate]] ===

osNpcCreate(string firstname, string lastname, vector position, string cloneFrom):key

cloneFrom may be:

* Name of the notecard containing a serialized avatar appearance, or
* Asset UUID of the Notecard, or
* UUID of an avatar logged into the same region. However, please note that this appearance will not be persisted unless osNpcSaveAppearance() is called.

If the NPC is successfully created, then its UUID is returned, which is required for all subsequent functions. Example is available at [[osNpcCreate]]

(OpenSimulator 0.7.3-rc1 onwards only). This creates an NPC that is 'owned' by the creating script and sensed using the OpenSimulator-only NPC flag for sensors.

=== [[osNpcCreate]] ===

OpenSimulator 0.7.3-rc1 onwards.

osNpcCreate(string firstname, string lastname, vector position, string cloneFrom, integer options):key

cloneFrom may be:

* Name of the notecard containing a serialized avatar appearance, or
* Asset UUID of the Notecard, or
* UUID of an avatar logged into the same region. However, please note that this appearance will not be persisted unless osNpcSaveAppearance() is called.

integer is a set of flags that may be 0 or one or more of

* OS_NPC_NOT_OWNED - create an unowned NPC.
* OS_NPC_SENSE_AS_AGENT - create an NPC that is sensed as an AGENT with LSL sensors

If the NPC is successfully created, then its UUID is returned, which is required for all subsequent functions. Example is available at [[osNpcCreate]]

=== [[osNpcRemove]] ===

osNpcRemove(key npc):void

Remove the given avatar from the region. Example at [[osNpcRemove]].

== Get and Set ==
=== osIsNpc ===

OpenSimulator 0.7.3-rc1 onwards.

osIsNpc(key npc):integer

Returns TRUE if the given key is an NPC, false otherwise.

=== [[osNpcGetRot]] ===

Gets the rotation of the avatar. Only the rotation around the Z plane in Euler rotation (horizontal rotation) has any meaning.

osNpcGetRot(key npc):rotation

=== [[osNpcSetRot]] ===

osNpcSetRot(key npc, rotation rot):void

Set the rotation of the avatar. Only setting the rotation in the Z plane in Euler rotation will have any meaningful effect (turning the avatar to point in one direction or another). Setting X or Y Euler values will result in the avatar rotating in an undefined manner.

=== [[osNpcGetPos]] ===

osNpcGetPos(key npc):vector

Return the current position of the NPC.

=== [[osNpcGetOwner]] ===

OpenSimulator 0.7.3-rc1 onwards.

osNpcGetOwner(key npc):key

Return the owner of the given NPC (i.e. the owner of the script that created it). If the NPC is unowned or the input key does not belong to an NPC then returns NULL_KEY.

== Movement ==

=== [[osNpcMoveTo]] ===

osNpcMoveTo(key npc, vector position):void

An older function that performs an osNpcMoveToTarget() by flying and landing at the target.

=== [[osNpcMoveToTarget]] ===

osNpcMoveToTarget(key npc, vector target, int options):void

Move the avatar to a given target over time. How the avatar will get there depends on the following options.

* OS_NPC_FLY - Fly the avatar to the given position. The avatar will not land unless the OS_NPC_LAND_AT_TARGET option is also given.
* OS_NPC_NO_FLY - Do not fly to the target. The NPC will attempt to walk to the location. If it's up in the air then the avatar will keep bouncing hopeless until another move target is given or the move is stopped
* OS_NPC_LAND_AT_TARGET - If given and the avatar is flying, then it will land when it reaches the target. If OS_NPC_NO_FLY is given then this option has no effect.
* OS_NPC_RUNNING - if given, NPC avatar moves at running/fast flying speed, otherwise moves at walking/slow flying speed.

OS_NPC_FLY and OS_NPC_NO_FLY are options that cannot be combined - the avatar will end up doing one or the other. If you want the avatar to fly and land at the target, then OS_NPC_LAND_AT_TARGET must be combined with OS_NPC_FLY. For instance,

osNpcMoveToTarget(npc, llGetPos() + <9,9,5>, OS_NPC_FLY|OS_NPC_LAND_AT_TARGET);

=== [[osNpcStopMoveToTarget]] ===

osNpcStopMoveToTarget(key npc):void

Stop a current move to a target.

== Sitting and standing ==

=== [[osNpcSit]] ===

OpenSimulator 0.7.3-rc1 onwards.

osNpcSit(key npc, key target, int options):void

Sit an NPC on a prim target.

=== [[osNpcStand]] ===

OpenSimulator 0.7.3-rc1 onwards.

osNpcStand(key npc):void

Make an npc stand up.

== Communication ==

=== [[osNpcSay]] ===

osNpcSay(key npc, string message):void
osNpcSay(key npc, int channel, string message):void

Get the NPC to say the given message.

If channel is specified then the chat is said on the given channel. The channel parameter is only available in OpenSimulator 0.7.4 development code at this time.

=== [[osNpcShout]] ===

Only in OpenSimulator 0.7.4 development code at this time.

osNpcShout(key npc, int channel, string message):void

Get the NPC to shout the given message on the given channel.

=== [[osNpcWhisper]] ===

Only in OpenSimulator 0.7.4 development code at this time.

osNpcWhisper(key npc, int channel, string message):void

Get the NPC to whisper the given message on the given channel.

== Animations ==

=== osNpcPlayAnimation ===

OpenSimulator 0.7.3-rc1 onwards.

osNpcPlayAnimation(key npc, string animation):void

Get an NPC to play an animation. The animation can either be a key or the name of an animation in the same inventory as the script.

=== osNpcStopAnimation ===

In OpenSimulator 0.7.3-rc1 there is a bug which makes this play the animation instead. This will be corrected for the final release but in the mean time please use osAvatarStopAnimation() instead.

osNpcStopAnimation(key npc, string animation):void

Get an NPC to stop playing an animation. The animation can either be a key or the name of an animation in the same inventory as the script.

== Appearance ==

NPC appearance is manipulated by saving and loading appearance data to notecards from the same inventory as the invoking script.

=== [[osOwnerSaveAppearance]] ===

osOwnerSaveAppearance(string notecard):key

Save the owner's current appearance to a notecard in the prim's inventory. This includes body part data, clothing items and attachments. If a notecard with the same name already exists then it is replaced. The owner must be present in the region when this function is invoked. The baked textures for the owner (necessary to recreate appearance on the NPC) are saved permanently.

=== [[osAgentSaveAppearance]] ===

osAgentSaveAppearance(key agentId, string notecard):key

Save an arbitrary avatar's appearance to a notecard in the prim's inventory. This includes body part data, clothing items and attachments. If a notecard with the same name already exists then it is replaced. The avatar must be present in the region when this function is invoked. The baked textures for the avatar (necessary to recreate appearance on the NPC) are saved permanently.

=== [[osNpcSaveAppearance]] ===

osNpcSaveAppearance(key npc, string notecard):key

Save the NPC's current appearance to a notecard in the prim's inventory. This includes body part data, clothing items and attachments. If a notecard with the same name already exists then it is replaced. The avatar must be present in the region when this function is invoked. The baked textures for the avatar (necessary to recreate appearance) are saved permanently.

=== [[osNpcLoadAppearance]] ===

osNpcLoadAppearance(key npc, string notecard):void

Load appearance from a notecard. This notecard must contain appearance data created with one of the save appearance functions.

== Touch ==
=== [[osNpcTouch]] ===

OpenSimulator 0.7.4 development code at this time.

osNpcTouch(key npc, key objectKey, integer linkNum)

Allows the NPC to touch objects.

= Examples =

== NPC Automator ==

*[[NPC Automator 2.0]]

This is a rough example script for most of the current NPC functionality. One of its major current deficiencies is that it doesn't track more than one created avatar at a time. Please feel free to improve it.

== Wandering and Puppeteer ==

[http://was.fm Wizardry and Steamworks] provides free-to-use NPC extendable set of scripts, published under the GPLv3 license, that implements most of the NPC functions and allows you to conveniently create NPCs. There are several several scripts available at the time of writing:

* [http://was.fm/opensim:npc:wandering Wandering NPCs] is a script that just makes a non-interative NPC wander around in a given area.
* [http://was.fm/opensim:npc:puppeteer NPC Puppeteer] is a system that will allow you to playwright NPCs without too much knowledge of either LSL or OSSL.

== OSW NPCs Controller==

OpenSimWorld provides an NPC controller that supports interactive NPCs. The system allows you to give commands to
NPCs through the local chat and to build complex behaviors through easy-to-write notecards. It also allows you to specify a "map"
of your region so that the NPCs can walk through it.

FAQ

2015-03-12T15:36:38Z

Georgeg: /* Are there test servers running OpenSimulator I can connect to? */

{{Quicklinks}}
 

== About OpenSimulator ==
=== What is OpenSim? ===
OpenSimulator is a platform for operating a virtual world, and supports multiple independent regions connecting to a single centralized grid. This is somewhat similar to the web, where anyone can run their own web server, tied together through the internet. It can also be used to create a private grid, analogous to a private intranet.

=== What is a region? ===
A region is what you see when you log into OpenSimulator. It is the physical place (well, virtual physical space) where avatars move and interact. It is a square patch of land which may contain an island, mountains, a plain, buildings, etc., or just an ocean.

=== What is the grid? ===
The grid is the level that organizes the regions and their positions in the world, and handles things that need to exist across regions, such as a user's inventory. You can think of it as similar to the world map.

=== What does ... mean? ===
See [[:Category:Tech Reference|OpenSim:Technical Reference]] for definitions of some terms commonly used in OpenSimulator.

== Configuring OpenSimulator ==
First, read [[OpenSim Configuration]].
=== Where can I get a new UUID for my sim config? ===
* See [[OpenSim Configuration]]

=== Can I run multiple regions with OpenSim? ===
* See [[OpenSim Configuration]]

=== What databases can be used with OpenSim? ===
* See [[OpenSim Configuration]]

=== What about PostgreSQL or NHibernate? ===
* NHibernate support, which enabled OpenSimulator to access PostgreSQL database, was removed on October 2009 ([http://opensimulator.org/viewgit/?a=commitdiff&p=opensim&h=fdce1be3db287bed901332b90ba57165e201d3fc r/11252]) due to lack of users and mainteners ([http://lists.berlios.de/pipermail/opensim-dev/2010-April/008537.html Opensim-dev: NHibernate status]).

== Running OpenSimulator ==

=== An error is thrown while trying to start up OpenSimulator ===

See [[Troubleshooting]].

== Connecting to OpenSimulator ==
=== I've set up my OpenSimulator server and it looks like the login works but the client hangs on 'connecting to region' ===

There are 2 steps to login.

1) When you start up the client and enter your name/password, it sends those details to the OpenSimulator login service. If your password is correct, it tells the region simulator that you're coming. It then sends back to you (the client) the ip address and port to use to enter that region (as gleaned from your Regions.ini file).

2) Your client then connects to the region using those details.

If the client hangs on 'connecting to region' then the details being sent to it in step 2) are not allowing it to connect. Check your Regions.ini carefully and try to telnet to the ip & port that should be available.

If you're seeing this problem after you've made your sim available to the outside world (where people outside your network can connect to it but you cannot) then you probably don't have a router that supports NAT loopback. This allows you to connect to a local machine through your router via an external address. See [[NAT Loopback Routers]] for a list of routers that support this feature.

== OpenSimulator in the Wild ==
=== Are there test servers running OpenSimulator I can connect to? ===

Yes. Check out our [[Grid List]]! There are often many private servers up for testing. Hang out on the IRC channel (Freenode #opensim), and troll for URI's.

There are also several private organizations offering directories and search engines. They include:

* [http://www.hyperica.com Hyperica] -- a categorized directory of hypergrid-enabled OpenSimulator destinations, currently over 250 locations 
* [http://www.metaverseink.com MetaverseInk] -- ha key-word-based search engine for OpenSimulator grids, mostly those running the Diva Distro
* [http://www.gridhop.net GridHop] -- a list covering the major OpenSimulator grids, currently over 150 destinations accessible over hypergrid teleport
* [http://www.hgurl.com HGURL] -- a key-word-search database for all grid, all accessible via hypergrid (in progress API for acces to search engine and info in world).
* [http://www.thehypergates.com/ The HyperGates] -- The first dynamic, auto-updating HyperGrid directory for both HyperGrid 1.5 ( OpenSimulator 0.7.x ) and HyperGrid 1.0 ( OpenSimulator 0.6.x ) standalones & grids. Download the HyperGate from the site now and Join the HyperGate Network. The most reliable HyperGrid directory.
* [http://www.opensimworld.com/ OpenSimWorld.com] -- A HyperGrid directory that monitors the number of visitors per region. Their teleporter allows you to access destinations from in-world.

=== Are there any companies that will host my grid for me? ===

Yes there are dozens of independent OpenSimulator hosting providers. The following are not affiliated with OpenSimulator.org.

* [http://www.dreamlandmetaverse.com DreamLand Metaverse]
* [http://www.ReactionGrid.com/ ReactionGrid]
* [http://www.simhost.com SimHost]
* [http://www.yoursimspot.com YourSimSpot]
* [http://edocio.com Edocio (Educational Sims Only.]
* [http://astral.dyndns-server.com World Star living virtual world's (Sim Host, Support)]
More vendors listed here: [http://www.hypergridbusiness.com/opensim-hosting-providers/ Hypergrid Business Vendors Directory] -- a categorized directory of OpenSimulator vendors, currently listing about three dozen providers. 

=== Can I teleport from the Linden Lab Second Life grid to my Sim? ===
No. In 2008 and 2009, there had been the connection to vaak grid, [http://blog.secondlife.com/2008/07/31/open-grid-public-beta-begins-today/ which enabled us to teleport from Second Life over to an OpenSimulator grid] before LindenLab closing it. As of 2010, "The vaak grid is currently unavailable as we transition from OGP based services to VWRAP based services."([http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Open_Grid_Public_Beta "Open Grid Public Beta" in Second Life Wiki])

== Troubleshooting ==
Please see the [[Troubleshooting]] page.

== MySQL ==
=== How do I isolate and delete a user's Trash items in a MySQL grid database? ===
NOTE: BACK UP YOUR DATABASE!

CAUTION: The Linux default directory for the MySQL database is /var/lib/mysql Many backup tools (e.g. backupPC) do NOT back up /var/*! Make certain that the database and not just the MySQL code (/usr/bin/mysql) is included in your nightly backups! The actual paths will be different for different operating systems and databases, but the problem is the same.

'''1.''' Locate the avatars UUID you wish to find the trash items of, in the '''users''' table 
This query will locate a specified users UUID: (replace User/Test with username/lastname)
<nowiki>SELECT `UUID` FROM `users` WHERE `username` LIKE 'User' AND `lastname` LIKE 'Test' LIMIT 0 , 30;</nowiki>
 
'''2.''' Use the avatars UUID to search the field_name '''AgentID''' in the '''inventoryFolders''' table, using '''Trash''' as the '''folderName''' to isolate the users Trash '''folderID''' 
This query will locate the users Trash folder entry: (replace 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 with UUID of user)
<nowiki>SELECT `folderID` FROM `inventoryfolders` WHERE `agentID` LIKE '00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000' AND `folderName` LIKE 'Trash'
LIMIT 0 , 30;</nowiki>
 
'''3.''' Use the '''folderID''' UUID obtained in the last query to find all of the trash items in the '''inventoryitems''' table, you can then delete them once you have isolated them. 
This query will locate the trash items of the avatar in question: (replace 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 with Trash folder UUID obtained in the last query)
<nowiki>SELECT * FROM `inventoryitems` WHERE `parentFolderID` LIKE '00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000' LIMIT 0 , 9999;</nowiki>
 
'''NOTE:''' These steps will not remove the associated assets from the assets table, just the items in the inventory '''inventoryitems''' table.

=== How do I isolate and resolve duplicate inventory folder entries in a MySQL grid database? ===
NOTE: BACK UP YOUR DATABASE! 

'''1.''' It's first a good idea to search for the affected avatars UUID in the '''inventoryFolders''' table to see the duplicate entries. When you see this, you'll see the problem of duplicate entries. The key here will be to find out which is being used. 

'''2.''' Upload a file inworld and name it something unique. This will isolate the UUID of your root folder that is being used (even though there are dups only one is being used) 

'''3.''' Search the '''inventoryitems''' table for your uniquely named item and locate it's '''parentFolderID''' 
This query will isolate the '''parentFolderID''' based on your search for the unique item (replace '''unique_name''' with your unique item name)
<nowiki>SELECT `parentFolderID` FROM `inventoryitems` WHERE `inventoryName` LIKE 'unique_name' LIMIT 0 , 30;</nowiki>

'''4.''' Check the '''inventoryfolders''' table against the '''parentFolderID''' UUID obtained in the last search. That is your root folder that is being used.. you can delete all duplicate entries that do not match that parentFolderID. In the end, you should only have one of each type (Trash, etc) 
This query will return all values that are NOT the parentID obtained in the last search. (replace 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 with the parentID located in step 3)
<nowiki>SELECT * FROM `inventoryfolders` WHERE `folderID` NOT LIKE '00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000' LIMIT 0 , 30;</nowiki>

== In World Questions ==
=== Does in world scripting work yet? ===
Not fully implemented, but most of it works, and there is a lot of work going on here. Please see [[ScriptEngines]], [[LSL Status]] and [[OSSL Status]] for the latest info.

=== Can I customize my avatar? ===
Yes. In order to do this:
* Click the Inventory Button
* Create -> New Clothes -> Shirt, Pants, etc
* Create -> New Body Parts -> Hair, Shape, etc
* Edit those from your inventory
* Wear them

Your avatar doesn't always face a nice direction for doing this, so you'll need to use the camera operations to see your face for some of the modifications. This is a known issue, will be fixed in the future. Also, you'll need to rewear you parts once you first join the environment. Right now default appearance is always "Ruth".

=== Why do I look like I gas cloud right after I did the the previous steps? ===
Second Life eliminated Ruth from their client. The Ruth we see in OpenSimulator is our own attempt of a yoga teacher and not truly Second Life's Ruth. When you create a shirt, pants, skin and shape and wear them without changing any parameters, the Second Life Viewer understands you are not Ruth. Since Ruth is no more, you become a cloud of gas. To fix it, either change a parameter of one of them before wearing all 4, or, if you already are a gas cloud, right click one of these items in your inventory and click edit. That should bring up the edit appearance menus. Just move any sliders and voilá.

=== Why doesn't my world map update when I edit the terrain? ===
There are three approaches depending on just how adventurous you want to be. From the least to the most adventurous:
* Wait two days. You will need to restart your sim at the end of the two days to get the updates.
* Edit the .xml file for the region. Change the value in the "lastmap_refresh" attribute to "0". You will need to restart the sim.
* Not for the faint of heart! Edit the "WorldMapModule.cs" file and change the "LazySaveGeneratedMaptile" method to change the "RefreshSeconds" value to something less than two days. Be sure to read the comments and understand why things are the way they are.

Once your terrain stabilizes, this won't be much of a problem, but it is nice to see the updates while you're furiously developing something.

=== How do I give a user God Mode privileges? ===
Open the Opensim database, select table useraccounts and set the UserLevel to 200 for the account that should have God Mode privileges.

Then, in the viewer Advanced menu, the user should select View Admin Options and select Request Admin Status.

== Scripting ==
=== System.Reflection.TargetParameterCountException: parameters do not match signature ===
The parameters for the states doesn't match with required. For example, this script should show the error above.
<source lang="lsl">
default
{
touch_start() // SHOULD have a parameter there
{
llApplyImpulse( <0., 0., 10000.>, FALSE );
}
}
</source>

== Region Statistics on a Web Page ==
=== Information about your regions. ===
Region statistics such as region name, avatar name, avatar position<x,y,z>, number of prims, and a lot of other information can be obtained on a web page by:
* Adding the following to the bottom of the OpenSim.ini file
[WebStats]
enabled=true
* Using a web browser and typing in the "Login URI" + "/SStats/" of your standalone server.
For example- <nowiki>http://127.0.0.1:9000/SStats/</nowiki>
The resulting web page is continually updated using AJAX, so there is no need to refresh the page to obtain current information. One possible use for this web page information would be to see who is logged on to the region in real time - without actually logging in. 
This web page provides region information similar to the kind generated by using various server console commands to obtain region statistics. See [[Server Commands]]
