Hi All,
I am new to Opensim development and was hoping I could “pick your brains” about
how to best go about creating a region
module, using the Vanilla Opensim c# API, that will create and manipulate
objects within a scene.
API is rather strong at this point, but the internals have been stable for quite some time. However, this isn't
guaranteed to be the case in the future.
I have taken a look at the documentation and also seen the Python Modrex
visualisation of a Software project from source
control. Unfortunately I am not very familiar with the Opensim API or Python
and we want to avoid complicating the
project by adding in extensions.
What we have is a simple region module based on the Hello world example (I
couldn’t get the updated mechanism to work).
Where I am struggling is with the loading and copying of the objects. What we
want is to have a set of persistent
defined objects stored somewhere, then to create a number of these in the scene
e.g. ObjA, ObjB and ObjC are stored
somewhere, we create 3 objAs and 2 objBs and connect them together using ObjCs.
The technique I usually use is to place ObjA, ObjB and ObjC in another prim's inventory. Then I rez them by retrieving
them by name, with code like the following.
SceneObjectPart part;
Scene scene;
Vector3 rezPos;
TaskInventoryItem item =
part.Inventory.GetInventoryItems(objAName)[0];
SceneObjectGroup so = part.Inventory.GetRezReadySceneObject(item);
scene.AddNewSceneObject(so, true, rezPos, so.Rotation,
Vector3.Zero);
If you need to link then programatically that's another issue. There is some test code in
OpenSim/Region/Framework/Scenes/Tests/SceneObjectLinkTests.cs that should prove useful.
