[Opensim-users] A Script Question

[Henry Wills]

Thanks, Vanish, James, but I'm not sure I understand what all that means.

First, about threat level, going into the opensim.ini, I have
OSFunctionThreatLevel = VeryLow

Yet, in the DivaPreferences.ini file I have
[XEngine]
    AllowMODFunctions = true
    AllowOSFunctions = true
    OSFunctionThreatLevel = Moderate

Could this be a conflict error due to the different threat level settings?
One example is a pretty simple point-to-point TP script, which has no
osFunctions in it, just the usual lsl functions. In fact, here's the whole
of the script ...

vector target=<190, 197, 64>;

vector offset;

default
{
    moving_end()
    {
        offset = (target- llGetPos()) * (ZERO_ROTATION / llGetRot());
        llSitTarget(offset, ZERO_ROTATION);
    }

    state_entry()
    {
        llSetText("Teleport pad",<0,0,0>,1.0);
        offset = (target- llGetPos()) * (ZERO_ROTATION / llGetRot());
        llSetSitText("Teleport");
        llSitTarget(offset, ZERO_ROTATION);
    }

    changed(integer change)
    {
        if (change & CHANGED_LINK)
        {
            llSleep(0.5);
            if (llAvatarOnSitTarget() != NULL_KEY)
            {
                llUnSit(llAvatarOnSitTarget());
            }
        }
    }

    touch_start(integer i)
    {
        llSay(0, "Please right-click and select Teleport");
    }
}
*
This one generates the error message every time I rez it. By the way, it
also has a 5 to 8 second delay before the the UnSit occurs.

However, I've just experimented by inserting a simple // as the very first
line and then rezzed the script into a new prim. (Hope that doesn't violate
the 'don't change the header' portion of the license) No error message. I'm
going to mess around with that on some other scripts, like a jetpack one I
am dying to get working properly.
