[Opensim-dev] Added Oriented Bounding Box raycasting on prim rez/create on another prim.

[Ursula MATOVA]

Just for feedback, after a few tests :


Rez the "Initial" prim ( named "A" ).

I name "AX-" the side of the prim that is on the "minus" direction on  
the X axis,
"AX+" the side of the prim that is on the "plus" direction on the X  
axis,
"AY-", "AY+"

Well, now rezzing many new prims over this initial prim ( A ) :

Rezzing on the "AY+" side : Working, the new prim center is located on  
the side AY+
Rezzing on "AX+" or "AX-" sides : Working, the new prim center is  
located on the side designed side,
Rezzing on the "Top" side : Working, the new prim is positioned right ;)
BUT :
Rezzing on the "AY-" side : The new prim is located far from the  
initial prim, and the "Z" coordinate change.

But no way, I think we can live with that :)

I'll let you know if I find something interresting while testing. :)

Good job and thanks again.

Regards,
Ursula.
