That's something that needs an external script to forward channel talk to llOwnerSay talk. > *every 6 seconds, play this fidgeting animation. > *every 30 seconds (the standard) switch stands. So two timers instead on just one?

That would need a list of objects and animations ... could get quite large, but entirely possible. > the flexibility of the interface and functionality, there will always be > holes, sometimes large, that will make it less fit for entire classes of > people. Depends. I am sure most of these gaps can be filled by small supporting scripts as soon as a standard interface for the AO is in place. > Server-side, this would only be made worse owing to the need to keep > this kind of load off the sim, which would mean an even further reduced > feature set. Ideally, the AO would be "loaded" only once. After that the viewer does all the work, as it does now. Only the setup should be saved in inventory as a wearable AO inventory item, for example. > Scripted AOs can be made to be *exact* fits for whatever the user wants > or needs, and if well-written, can present a minimum of load to the > server. More load than a client-side AO, to be sure, but good scripting > is good scripting. I agree completely with this.
