[Opensim-users] User Levels - Configurable?

[Justin Clark-Casey]

Hi Fleep.  Much of this stuff is also documented in the [Permissions] section of OpenSim.ini.example.  But I presume 
you've read that and some of it is still unclear?

There's also a scratch info page at [1] which I very quickly removed the most out of date stuff.  But unfortunately it's 
incomplete.

Also, afaik, only GOD_FULL from [2] is implemented in OpenSimulator afaik.  I don't see any issue in principle with 
implementing GOD_LIKE, GOD_CUSTOMER_SERVICE or GOD_LIAISON though I don't know how one would active them from the viewer 
(or perhaps these are only done via backend Linden systems).
