Betreff: [Opensim-users] Very bizarre HUD issues


I am on OpenSim v0.7.0.2 running in StandAlone mode on a Linux (Ubuntu
64-bit system).  I have noticed a strange phenomena recently that seems to
be affecting my avatars.  When a player signs in to the sim or signs out of
the sim, for a brief few seconds, the entering or exiting player's HUD is
appearing on all other players' viewers.  Most of the time just the outline
of the HUD appears, along with 1 or 2 textures.  Then it vanishes after a
few seconds.  It also seems as though it is not appearing at the attachment
point it is designed for (upper left) and seems to be grabbing the center of
the screen.  It does not rez in the environment (on the ground) only as a
HUD attachment to the other players.  Also, occasionally, a transparent
piece of the HUD will momentarily attach to the center HUD attachment point
and block you from clicking on other objects in the environment.  If I right
click to see the owner/creator there is no information and if you turn left
and right it disappears. This behavior does not seem to coincide with
another avatar signing in or out.

I have not seen anything like this in the Mantis (unless I am not choosing
proper search keywords).  I would logically assume that when you sign in or
out some event is triggering that is firing an event to all viewers.
Perhaps I have coded something incorrectly?  Here is the script in my root
prim:

integer Version_Channel = 15;
integer attachflag = 0;
default {
    state_entry() {
        llSay(0, "HUD");
    }
    run_time_permissions(integer perm) {
        if (perm & PERMISSION_ATTACH) {
            if(attachflag) {
                llSetAlpha(1.0,ALL_SIDES);
                llOwnerSay("attachToAvatar");
                llAttachToAvatar(ATTACH_HUD_TOP_LEFT);
            }
            else {
                llOwnerSay("detachFromAvatar");
                llDetachFromAvatar();
            }
        }
        else {
            llDie();
        }
    }
    attach(key attached) {
        llListen(Version_Channel,"",NULL_KEY,"");
        if (attached != NULL_KEY) // object has been detached
        {
            llRegionSay(Version_Channel,"version");
        }
        else {
            llDie();
        }
    }
    listen(integer channel, string name, key id, string message) {
        if(channel == Version_Channel) {
            if(message != llGetObjectName() && message != "version") {
                attachflag = 0;
                llOwnerSay("Old Version of the HUD. Click on game board for
new version.");
                llRequestPermissions(llGetOwner(), PERMISSION_ATTACH);
            }
        }
    }
    on_rez(integer total_number) {
        llSetAlpha(0.0,ALL_SIDES);
        attachflag = 1;
        llOwnerSay("attachflag setted.");
        llRequestPermissions(llGetOwner(), PERMISSION_ATTACH);
    }
}
