[Opensim-users] Opensim-users Digest, Vol 16, Issue 57

[Frank W Sweet]

No, there is something strange about osTeleportAgent when TPing to a 
purely HyperGrid region. My OS functions are enabled and my threat 
level is temporarily "Severe." This is because I am building a 
HyperGrid teleporter. When the user chooses a HyperGrid region, the 
device dynamically does a link-region using the osConsoleCommand 
function (that is why the threat level "severe" is needed). The 
dynamically issued link-region works fine by itself. And the 
osTeleportAgent function works if I send the user to an in-sim (not 
HyperGrid) region. But when the function tries to send the user to a 
HyperGrid region, a blue dialog box comes up that the region name was 
"not found." Of course, manually TP-ing to the target HyperGrid region 
from the map (where the region name is found) works fine. It just 
seems to me that, in order to use a _HyperGrid_ region name in the 
osTeleportAgent function, the name would have to be qualified in some 
way (with a uri or an ip or some such thing).

Also, in case anyone is interested in the idiosyncracies of HG, I have 
discovered that if two standalone region servers are running inside 
the same box and you want to HG-tp between them, the "link-region" 
command MUST show the target region's real, actual coordinates. 
Otherwise, the target region's terrain will be invisible (and 
untouchable) when you arrive.

Does anyone know if in-world script function osTeleportAgent (the
overload with four arguments--region name being second) is supposed to
work with hypergrid-linked regions? (Sending the avatar to a
hypergrid-linked region by name.) I could have sworn that I had it
working thus a few weeks ago. But I have gone all the way back to 74xx
and cannot reproduce it. Either it worked once-upon-a-time and is now
broken or (more likely) my memory is failing and it never worked this
way at all. Does anyone know?

It works. Make sure you have os functions enabled and the threat level 
at
the appropriate level in OpenSim.ini.
