[Opensim-users] NPC not getting removed as expected

[Dr Ramesh Ramloll]

And sadly the attach() function does not seem to be producing the right
UUID for the NPC as well ... this is what I get when trying to have an NPC
say its UUID
My UUID is 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000
I think the problem lies elsewhere for the NPC removal part, because all
the other functions are working fine e.g. sit on taget, moving to some
point etc etc
