Trying to run through the process: Idea, required elements, architecture and finally simplification. The idea is simply: Moving ScriptEngine to a separate daemon, independent from the region.This has several big … Read more
Perfect code
The development process of a good program may often seem strange for an outsider. One can expect the development process to consist of planning, development and testing. A simple linear way to get from design to final product. In most commercial scenarios this is also how its done. Forcing an application from idea through design, … Read more

For example instead of using llToLower(mystring) you can use mystring.ToLower(), instead of llStringLength(mystring) you can use mystring.Length().

WIKI updated with info on scripting
I’ve updated the OpenSim Wiki with: General info about scripting in OpenSim llFunction implementation status And some information about the DotNetScriptEngine internals
Small stresstest
114 scripts loaded. 1 script per AppDomain. Most scripts are alone inside a prim, except the big box over there that has something like 10 scripts in it (it is bigger so I could fit more scripts into it). My computer is a 2,8GHz Prescott with 2GB RAM and Windows Vista Ultimate.60 of the scripts … Read more

Here is current status of LSL script support:+ We have LSL script support.+ We can run hundreds of scripts simlutaneously, probably not thousands (needs testing). We have confirmed 50 … Read more
