[Opensim-users] Want to log avvie position and facing direction to a file

[Neil Canham]

No, not necessarily - it depends if this needs to be real time or not.  If
it is a log for later analysis, then you can request the object
position/rotation more regularly, and send the data in blocks via Http.
 This could be done, and is how some chat bridges work to overcome the
message sending limit.  However, as has been mentioned, a region module is
almost certainly a better bet if you have the skills and access.
