| − | '''Work in progress''' | + | A teleport is the transfer of a user's connection (represented in-world by their avatar) from one location to another. These locations can be |
| | | | |
| − | Teleports in OpenSimulator involve a complex exchange of messages between the simulator hosting the source region, the simulator hosting the destination region (which may be the same simulator that is hosting the source region) and the viewer. This page documents that message exchange.
| + | * Within the same region. |
| | + | * Between different regions on the same simulator. |
| | + | * Between different simulators on the same network within the same grid (e.g. a grid hosted on a single network). |
| | + | * Between different networks within the same grid (e.g. between simulators hosted on OSGrid). |
| | + | * Between different networks on different grids (i.e. Hypergrid teleport). |
| | | | |
| − | In terms of basic grid teleports (where all simulators are hosted on the same grid), there are five different scenarios. | + | In OpenSimulator 0.7.5 and for many releases previously, a teleport protocol called SIMULATION/0.1 was used. In OpenSimulator 0.7.6 and after, a teleport protocol called SIMULATION/0.2 is used by default. However, OpenSimulator can still use the SIMULATION/0.1 protocol required by older versions and will automatically inter-operate with them. |
| | | | |
| − | * Teleport within the same region (intra-region).
| + | If you want to know an eye-watering amount of nitty-gritty about how this works, then please see the [[Teleport Protocol]] page. |
| − | * Teleport to an out-of-sight region hosted on the same simulator (same simulator, out-of-sight).
| + | |
| − | * Teleport to an in-sight region hosted on the same simulator (same simulator, in-sight).
| + | |
| − | * Teleport to an out-of-sight region hosted on a different simulator (different simulator, out-of-sight).
| + | |
| − | * Teleport to an in-sight region hosted on a different simulators (different simulator, in-sight).
| + | |
| | | | |
| − | These are listed in terms of complexity and hence reliability. Intra-region teleport is the simplest at all since the avatar just needs to be moved within the region - connections do not need to be torn down and established.
| + | =Configuration= |
| | | | |
| − | Same simulator, out-of-sight teleport is the next simplest. Though the avatar needs to be removed from one scene and placed in another, a second simulator is not involved. As the regions are out of sight of one another for the client's draw distance, no management of root and child agents is required (see [[Glossary]] for more information on agents).
| + | Normally, no configuration is required. However, from OpenSimulator 0.7.6 onwards, one can force the simulator to always use the older SIMULATION/0.1 protocol to send an avatar to another simulator, receive an avatar from another simulator or both. |
| | | | |
| − | Same simulator, in-sight teleport is similar to out-of-sight teleport except that some management of agents (e.g. downgrade root agent to child on the source region) needs to be done.
| + | ==Using SIMULATION/0.1 to send an avatar to another region== |
| | | | |
| − | Different simulator, out-of-sight teleport is similar to same simulator, out-of-sight teleport except that the need to communicate between different simulator processes increases the complexity of the teleport and often introduces a network dependency (unless the simulators are hosted on the same machine).
| + | The protocol version used for outgoing teleports is controlled by the MaxOutgoingTransferVersion attribute in the [EntityTransfer] section of OpenSim.ini. Specifying |
| | | | |
| − | Different simulator, in-sight teleport is the more complex normal grid teleport, since not only is there an interaction between source simulator, destination simulator and viewer, but upgrade and downgrades between child and root agents need to be managed as well.
| + | [EntityTransfer] |
| | + | MaxOutgoingTransferVersion = "SIMULATION/0.1" |
| | | | |
| − | =Same simulator, Out-of-sight=
| + | here will make the simulator use this earlier protocol for outgoing teleports even if the destination has SIMULATION/0.2 available (all such simulators should also have SIMULATION/0.1 available). See OpenSimDefaults.ini for more details. |
| | | | |
| − | This is a detailed description of the steps performed for a same simulator, out-of-sight region teleport. This was established with Linden Lab viewer 3.3.4. Earlier viewers up to LL 1.23 probably have very similar if not identical steps.
| + | ==Using SIMULATION/0.1 to receive an avatar from another region== |
| | | | |
| − | There are three distinct stages; preparing, transferring and cleaning up.
| + | In this case, one needs to use the ConnectorProtocolVersion in the [SimulationService] section of StandaloneCommon.ini or GridCommon.ini as appropriate. For example |

| − | ==Stage 1: Preparing== | + | =References= |
| − | At this stage, the teleport can be denied (e.g. because destination simulator is full), failed or cancelled without requiring any reversing steps on the source (e.g. reinitializing child agents, etc.)
| + | |
| | | | |
| − | ===Communication===
| + | * [[Teleport Protocol]] - an extremely in depth look at the teleport protocol. |
| − | Communication occurs between
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | * Viewer and source region (V <-> S) | + | |
| − | * Source region and grid (S -> G)
| + | |
| − | * Source region and destination region (S -> D)
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | No communication yet occurs between the viewer and the destination region.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ===Steps===
| + | |
| − | * V->S, Viewer sends '''TeleportLocationRequest''' UDP packet to its current simulator. This holds the desired destination region co-ordinates.
| + | |
| − | * Source simulator checks the user is allowed to teleport in principle.
| + | |
| − | * S->G, Source tries to retrieve information about the destination region from the grid service.
| + | |
| − | * Source checks destination is within max teleport distance. This is because most Second Life compatible viewers cannot teleport further than 4096 regions due to implementation and possibly protocol limitations.
| + | |
| − | * S->D, Source contacts the destination simulator to check whether the agent is allowed to teleport to the destination region. Failure may occur here because the destination simulator is unavailable, the region is not letting any users in, etc.
| + | |
| − | * S->V, If everything is okay, the viewer is sent a '''TeleportStart''' UDP packet. This is a very simple packet that just tells the viewer that the teleport is in progress. At this point on the viewer, the 3D scene will be replaced by a teleport progress screen (classically black with a progress bar in the middle).
| + | |
| − | * Source calculates whether the destination region is in-sight. In this case, it is out-of-sight.
| + | |
| − | * S->D, Therefore, source asks destination to create an agent in anticipation of a connection from the viewer. The agent starts as a child agent - it will be upgraded to a root agent on a successful connection. The session circuit code is passed on so that the destination simulator can recognise a new connection from the viewer.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ==Stage 2: Transferring==
| + | |
| − | The teleport is now in flight. If it fails then cleanup takes significant steps and may not work anyway because the viewer has a different view of what happened - a view which unfortunately could be uncorrectable except by relog).
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ===Communication===
| + | |
| − | Communication occurs between
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | * Source region and any neighbouring regions (S -> SCh)
| + | |
| − | * Any neighbouring source region and the viewer (SCh -> V)
| + | |
| − | * Source region to the viewer (S -> V)
| + | |
| − | * Viewer to the destination region (V -> D)
| + | |
| − | * Source region and the destination region (S <-> D)
| + | |
| − | * Destination region to any neighbouring regions (D -> DCh)
| + | |
| − | * Any neighbouring destination regions to the viewer (DCh <-> V)
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ===Steps===
| + | |
| − | * S->SCh*, If create agent request is successful, source requests closure of existing child agents which were allowing the user to see events in neighbouring and other in-sight regions at the source location.
| + | |
| − | ** These close requests go from the source simulator to in-sight regions which may be on the same simulator or different simulators.
| + | |
| − | ** SCh*->V, Each close requests triggers a client connection close. This tears down the client circuit, removes the scene presence (the primary code representation of the agent in the scene) and sends the client a '''DisableSimulator''' event via the Event Queue HTTP capability.
| + | |
| − | * S->V, Source simulator sends an '''EnableSimulator''' Event Queue message for the destination region to the viewer.
| + | |
| − | ** V->D, This triggers the viewer to send the initial '''UseCircuitCode''' UDP packet to the destination simulator to establish a new connection.
| + | |
| − | * S->V, Very shortly afterwards, the source simulator sends an '''EstablishAgentCommunication''' Event Queue message to the viewer. This contains the destination simulators HTTP capability root URL.
| + | |
| − | ** V->D This triggers the viewer to send a '''SEED''' capability request to the destination simulator. The destination replies with all the capabilities that are available on that simulator.
| + | |
| − | * S->D, Source sends the destination simulator more information about the incoming connection via the '''UpdateAgent''' inter-region communication message. If the regions are running on the same simulator then the UpdateAgent call waits for the viewer to establish a child connection. The timeout is 20 seconds. If the regions are on different simulators then the source simulator is not delayed.
| + | |
| − | * S->V, The source sends the viewer a '''TeleportProgress''' UDP packet. This is just a status update and advances the viewer's waiting bar for the teleport.
| + | |
| − | * S->V, The source sends the viewer a '''TeleportFinish''' Event Queue message.
| + | |
| − | * The source now waits 20 seconds for a '''ReleaseAgent''' inter-region message from the destination simulator that the new connection is operational.
| + | |
| − | * V->D, The TeleportFinish message sent to the viewer triggers it to send a second '''UseCircuitCode''' UDP packet to the destination simulator. This is largely ignored by OpenSimulator, with the exception that an '''AckPacket''' UDP acknowledgement message is immediately sent back.
| + | |
| − | * V->D, The '''TeleportFinish''' message sent to the viewer triggers it to send a '''CompleteAgentMovement''' UDP packet to the destination on the newly established UDP connection.
| + | |
| − | ** This triggers the destination simulator to upgrade the previously established child agent to a full root agent.
| + | |
| − | ** D->S, The destination simulator calls back the source simulator with a '''ReleaseAgent''' inter-region message to tell it that the new connection was successfully established.
| + | |
| − | ** D->DCh*, The destination simulator asks neighbouring regions to initiate child agent connections if appropriate.
| + | |
| − | ** DCh*->V, Each new child agent requests triggers an '''EnableSimulator''' EQ message from the destination child agent region to the viewer.
| + | |
| − | ** V->Dch*, This triggers the viewer to establish a separate connection to each region with an initial '''UseCircuitCode''' UDP message.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ==Stage 3: Cleaning up==
| + | |
| − | If stage 2 completes successfully, then all that remains to be done is to clean up the source region.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Communication occurs between
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | * The source region and the viewer (S <-> V)
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ===Steps===
| + | |
| − | * Once the source receives the '''ReleaseAgent''' message, it cleans up the old presence by removing the avatar and its attachments from the source scene. The agent is downgraded from a root agent to a child agent.
| + | |
| − | * S->V, Since the source region is no longer in sight, this child agent is closed completely. This triggers a '''DisableSimulator''' Event Queue message from the source simulator to the viewer for the old connection.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ==General notes==
| + | |
| − | * Once the viewer receives a TeleportStart message from the simulator, the user will be given a cancel option. Clicking that button sends a TeleportCancel UDP packet from the viewer to the simulator. If clicked early on in the teleport process, cancellation may succeed. If clicked later on, there will be various problems (e.g. user is returned to source region but can no longer move). OpenSimulator does not currently handle cancellation requests very well.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ==Failure summary table==

| − | |-
| + | |
| − | | Teleport succeeds up until the point where the viewer tries to complete movement (with the CompleteAgentMovement packet) into the destination region. The region either does not receive this (and for some reason the viewer doesn't detect that is should retry) or completely fails to act on it. Therefore, the source region does not receive the receive the ReleaseAgent message from the destination region. || Source simulator will cancel teleport after a 20 second delay. In OpenSimulator 0.7.5, things should continue normally and the viewer able to see/cross into neighbours from the source region, do other teleports and even perform the same teleport later on if the destination region network issues are resolved. Before 0.7.5 there may be problems with this process.
| + | |
| − | |-
| + | |
| − | | Teleport succeeds except that the final ReleaseAgent signal from the destination to the source does not occur. One possible cause is network issues - this is the first point at which the destination region has to contact the source region directly. || Source simulator will cancel teleport after a 20 second delay. However, as the viewer has successfully teleported to the destination (as far as its concerned), this leaves the viewer session in an unuseable state (avatar cannot move, teleport, etc.). This is currently the behaviour in OpenSimulator 0.7.5. Unfortunately, it's practically impossible to distinguish between this case and the preceedng one.

| − | This documentation is legacy because in part it refers to components and mechanisms that have since been changed. Chiefly, grid services are now discrete services hosted by a standalone or in one or more ROBUST instances - the discrete user, inventory, etc. servers no longer exist. Also inventory is no longer fully loaded onto a simulator when a root agent arrives there - instead it is pulled from the grid inventory service on-demand.

A teleport is the transfer of a user's connection (represented in-world by their avatar) from one location to another. These locations can be
In OpenSimulator 0.7.5 and for many releases previously, a teleport protocol called SIMULATION/0.1 was used. In OpenSimulator 0.7.6 and after, a teleport protocol called SIMULATION/0.2 is used by default. However, OpenSimulator can still use the SIMULATION/0.1 protocol required by older versions and will automatically inter-operate with them.
If you want to know an eye-watering amount of nitty-gritty about how this works, then please see the Teleport Protocol page.
Normally, no configuration is required. However, from OpenSimulator 0.7.6 onwards, one can force the simulator to always use the older SIMULATION/0.1 protocol to send an avatar to another simulator, receive an avatar from another simulator or both.
The protocol version used for outgoing teleports is controlled by the MaxOutgoingTransferVersion attribute in the [EntityTransfer] section of OpenSim.ini. Specifying
here will make the simulator use this earlier protocol for outgoing teleports even if the destination has SIMULATION/0.2 available (all such simulators should also have SIMULATION/0.1 available). See OpenSimDefaults.ini for more details.
In this case, one needs to use the ConnectorProtocolVersion in the [SimulationService] section of StandaloneCommon.ini or GridCommon.ini as appropriate. For example
