Summary
This is a fully functional, full featured script engine which supports persistent script states and script state serialization.
This engine is enabled by default.
For each unique script asset, XEngine will create up to 4 files. These are:
- CommonCompiler_compiled_<script-asset-id>.dll, the actual executable DLL for that script asset.
- On mono, CommonCompiler_compiled_<script-asset-id>.mdb, the debug data file (necessary for resolving line numbers).
- On Windows, CommonCompiler_compiled_<script-asset-id>.pdb, the debug data file (necessary for resolving line numbers).
- CommonCompiler_source_CommonCompiler_compiled_<script-asset-id>.cs, if WriteScriptSourceToDebugFile = true in [XEngine] in OpenSim.ini. This is the C# source file as translated from the source language (e.g. from LSL) before compilation.
If scripts contain identical source code then there can be more than one script using the same code. However, they will maintain separate state files to record the script's individual state. These are labelled
- <script-item-id>.state
For more information on state files, see below.
Configuration
XEngine is enabled by default in OpenSimulator. If you do need to enable it manually, make sure that the following line is present in your OpenSim.ini [Startup] section:
DefaultScriptEngine = "XEngine"
XEngine has a number of configuration options in OpenSim.ini, which are listed below, with an explanation and the default values:

OS Functions enable/disable
For each function, you can add one line, as shown
; true is the default for all functions, and allows them if below threat level Allow_osSetRegionWaterHeight = true This allows any user to use it, if the threat level permits
or
; false disables the function completely Allow_osSetRegionWaterHeight = false Prevents anyone from using it
or
; Comma separated list of UUIDS allows the function for that list of UUIDS Allow_osSetRegionWaterHeight = 888760cb-a3cf-43ac-8ea4-8732fd3ee2bb Allows only the listed user(s) to use these functions (unconditionally)
Both engines share the same parser and LSL implementation, so any script that runs on one can be expected to run on the other, with a few notable exceptions:
- Resetting other scripts (XEngine only)
- Stopping/starting other scripts (XEngine only)
State persistence
XEngine persists state and variable values for individual script instances across region restarts. This is stored in a .state file. When a script is deleted, the .state file is also deleted.
