Servers
Today, Tuesday 10/17, the main channel gets a new feature and security update. The new feature is the script function llSitOnLink( ), which requires an Experience Key as it is a ‘forced’ sit. The documentation for it is here. As of this morning I can’t find the function in the SL Wiki’s LSL Portal… Search only returns the mentions in the server release notes.
There is no mention of the security update in the release notes for this package.
On Wednesday, all three RC channels get the same update package, a maintenance release. Included is a fix for BUG-37758 – OBJECT_REZZER_KEY returns creator key of root key with all in-world copied objects instead of the agent who copied it. Also, ‘minor internal changes’.
