I'm seeing strange behavior from viewers: after an avatar HG teleports to another grid, his attachments sometimes aren't visible to *some* of the avatars in the region.
The isn't that the attachments have been detached: the log shows that they came across perfectly. And some of the avatars in the region *do* see the attachments, while some do not. For example, in Singularity, an avatar already in the region sees the incoming avatar's attachments, whereas the incoming avatar himself does not! In Firestorm the problem is the reverse: the incoming avatar does see his attachments, but the avatar already in the grid doesn't. Waiting doesn't solve the problem. But other actions sometimes do: * Most tellingly, sometimes merely changing the zoom level of the viewer (using the mousewheel) makes the attachments appear. No packets are sent to or from the viewer at this time (I checked). * If the avatar walks forward then sometimes one or more of the attachments appear. But strangely, walking backwards doesn't make them appear. I looked carefully at the packets being sent to see if anything is missing, or whether the packets differ between avatars that do see the attachments and those who don't, but I can't see a difference. And in any case, the fact that sometimes the attachments can appear even without any packets being sent (as in the mousewheel example) means that it's something to do with the viewer. I don't want to just say "it's a viewer problem" and move on, because it's a problem for users of OpenSim. My working assumption is that by sending additional packets, or at different times, we can make the viewer refresh itself and show the attachments. This would only need to happen shortly after a teleport. Does anyone know what we could do to force the viewer to redraw the attachments? I tried sending additional "ObjectUpdate" packets for the attachments, but this didn't help.
