<p class="MsoNormal"> </p><p class="MsoNormal">I have a bot server that does a number of things, and bots that do a number of things, including a pedagogical agent bot that can evaluate data models (ERDs) for students and give them feedback on the correctness of their submission. This works now in a vacuum, but is not connected to my agent avatar. What I need to be able to do, is pass a file from an avatar controlled by a human, to my pedagogical agent bot.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p><p class="MsoNormal">One suggestion is to use notecards to pass the file name from the avatar to OpenSIM, then for my application to grab the name from the notecard and upload the user’s file. This is not straightforward, since the bot application is running on the server, and the browser (i.e., Imprudence) is running on the client’s computer.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p><p class="MsoNormal">Any suggestions on how this might be done would be greatly appreciated.</p><p class="MsoNormal"> </p><p class="MsoNormal">Best regards,</p><p class="MsoNormal">scotto…</p><p class="MsoNormal">
