Shouting over sim lines

[Julielynn Slade]

I am a manager at a sim with another sim that closely borders.  We hold A LOT of 7Seas fishing contests there and many people like to use fishing customs along with their fishing rods and some of the fishing customs shout when you catch a certain fish.  We are receiving complaints from the neighboring sims about the text from the shouting customs.  I have checked all the necessary boxes in the about land tabs to try and stop it but you can still see it.  Why is this possible?  Is there any way to fix it?  Any help would be appreciated.

I'm not super positive with the 7 Seas Fishing game, but if it's scripted anything like Greedy, the owner can change settings to "quiet mode." You may want to check your settings for the fishing thingy, itself. Hope it helps.

No the custom will not be changed.  The customs are all over the place and owned and worn by several people so I that is not a possibility.  I thin this has something to do with main land.  Private land doesn't seem to have this problem which doesn't make much sense.

I think "About Land > Sounds > Restrict gesture and object sounds to this parcel " might do it. Assume it is your land. If not your landlord would probably change that for you.

 

 You can also restrict voice to your parcel and that might be a good thing too

 The SAME options are available on mainland.

We've done all that.  The sound of the custom is not the problem.  It's the text.  The text is the problem.  No matter what we do it can still be seen.

Is "avatars on other parcels can see and chat with avatars on this parcel" under options in your parcel tools?  Uncheck it if it is.  If it isn't checked then something is wrong and you should file a support ticket.

I am afraid I can not help much but I can confirm that chat text from an object flows into other parcels and regions no matter the land settings of restrictions for the text.
The object will be heard inside the radius for the type of chat: whisper(10m), say(20m) and shout(100m) not limited by parcel or region borders.

I used this simple script in an object on my own land and stepped into the next parcel and next region

default{    state_entry()    {        llSetTimerEvent( 4.0 );    }    timer()    {        llSay(0, "Hello");    }}

As I recall it, it was the same problem years back where objects in clubs used to spam the neighborhood this way
I guess use of the newer chat functions: llRegionSay() and llRegionSayTo() has reduced the problem

I searched the JIRA/bugtrace for this, but had no luck finding any entry, although this certainly is a bug

It's just so strange that it's only on main land this occurs.  Private land it's fine. The text shouting won't happen.  It just seems to be a main land gltch something that could be easily fixed by LL.  I mean if private land doesn't have this problem I don't think main land should either.  They DEFINITELY should make main land that way.  That's just common sense.
