Preview grid updated to SLS1.23. Dynamic sound throttling, take two

By Tateru Nino

The preview grid (Aditi) has been updated with SLS1.23, and the schedule has been set for it to roll out onto the main grid on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday next week.

This contains a second attempt at the infamous sound-throttling feature that caused widespread trouble for scripts some weeks ago. You've got several days to test to see if it breaks your content on the preview grid before it goes live on the main grid.

Changes:

  • New LSL call for count of agents in region: llGetRegionAgentCount() (Note: this will not be usable until the call is also supported in the viewer; it is expected to be included with the 1.21 viewer.)
  • New LSL call to get user's client language: llGetAgentLanguage(llDetectedKey(0))) (Note: this will not be usable until the call is also supported in the viewer; it is expected to be included with the 1.21 viewer.)
  • Dynamic sound throttling. This is done differently from how it was done (and then removed) a few weeks ago. Test your content on the Preview Grid if you want to make sure this release doesn't break it!
