[Opensim-users] NPC Persistence over server restarts

[Gudule Lapointe]

What about the NPC inventory? If I try to use a notecard that I created in another grid, the servers complains that the avatar has no inventory and cannot render it. And in fact, it remains just a cloud. Anyone has a workaround? … Other than re-creating a notecard for each avatar in each world, I already thought about this one...
