 * Loading scripts from the library section of inventory does not work properly.
 * The non-default Warp3D maptile generator currently leaks memory very badly.  We recommend that you only use this once at the beginning of each simulator session.
 * For other bugs please see the OpenSimulator Mantis bug tracker.

 * Accuracy of scene update timing improved.
 * Fixed an issue where a neighbouring varregion would sometimes not show up for users.
 * Added a "show region" console command to show all the parameters of the current region show as host name, agent limits, etc.

 * OBJECT_ROT and OBJECT_VELOCITY in llGetObjectDetails() now returns the avatar properties if the script is in an attachment.
 * llSetPrimitiveParams() calls are no longer ignored after llSetTextureAnim(FALSE).
 * Calling llStopMoveToTarget() in an attachment script will now stop the avatar if it was moving to a target.
 * Giving the name of a non-existing item to llGiveInventory() no longer wrongly generates an exception as well as an error.

 * By default, terrain information is now sent in an area centred on the avatar rather than for the entire region.  This is to enable better responsiveness in varregions.  This can be controlled via [Terrain] SendTerrainUpdatesByViewDistance.
 * Rectangular terrain features can be created on the console via a new "terrain feature" console command.

 === Avatars ===
 * Improved avatar movement responsiveness.
 * The stand position of an avatar is now correct if a script moves them whilst they are seated.
 * Specifying a login position with decimal points now rounds these rather than failing login.
 * Reduced AgentUpdate UDP message triggering sensitivity to 0.1 from 0.01.  This has not proven noticeable to viewers and decreases the UDP message traffic processing on high concurrency regions.
 * Automatic periodic appearance refresh is now disabled by default.  The problem which this was implemented to fix (avatar appearances being missing) appears to have gone away.  Disabling this reduces outgoing UDP traffic for simulators, particularly heavily populated ones.
