[Opensim-users] one more Difference between opensim and SL timers

[Dr Ramesh Ramloll]

Hey Justin,
This can be reproduced with this script. Rez object, touch to start it,
then take it back to inventory, then rez again. Counter will continue to be
incremented and printed on screen. And I have to apologize here for not
submitting a report. Too tired :) really, not an excuse or anything. Sorry.

integer counter;
default
{
    state_entry()
    {

    }
    touch_start(integer flag){
        llSetTimerEvent(0.5);
    }

    timer()
    {
       ++counter;
       llSay(0,(string)counter);
    }
}
