[Opensim-dev] teleport scripts with osteleportagent need to be manually reset to work when region restarts

[Salahzar Stenvaag]

http://code.google.com/p/lslvault/source/browse/trunk/TeleportOs/TeleportRenameRegionColonTargetVector.lslhere
is the collide I need to reset when region is restarted to have touch
or collision working can you tell me which part of this script is relying
on region services so it needs to be reset at restart ?
