Anna Nova Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 I noticed that when I accidentally touch the inside walls of my Windlass houseboat, I get an announcement in chat of the form: HB3: Touched Link 25( HB3 ) on face n Has anyone else seen this? It seems to be a script that I assume Ancient Mole planned to remove (Touched WHAT?) before shipping. It has no function other than to fill up the chat. Should I raise a Jira?

Live Chat can open a Support ticket if needed, I think. Good luck and I hope you don't have to wait too long to have it fixed. ♥ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does it still do it if you rez a new copy? If so, yeah, contact Support because that is odd behavior for sure. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Mole leaving in a debug script is decisively illustrative of why we need not rush these folks, and simply let them do their work. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, as a systems programmer, I am a bit alarmed to discover that each Houseboat has been independently installed and tested. I knew SL's infrastructure was designed for another age. Fascinating. I guess this is the price we pay for having unique communities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess this is the price we pay for having unique communities. I very vaguely recall someone mentioning a problem with their houseboat wall earlier (or it may have been my imagination, LOL); if so, then I can readily see how a Mole would have dropped by, and put a wee test-script in, to see what link number the wall was, what facing the texture was on, etc. And then forgot to take it out. Been there, done that. N.B. Now, this is going to bake your noodle, later on... what if you were able to grab up your new houseboat this morning, precisely because someone left his/her boat because of that wall issue!? 😜 Edited May 17, 2019 by kiramanell 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moles Quartz Mole Posted May 17, 2019 Moles Share Posted May 17, 2019 The messages are from a stray debug script that we used when preparing the house control panels, to make sure we knew which faces of each mesh were which. Obviously it should have been removed from the model at some point during all our pre-release checks, but clearly that didn't happen in this particular case. Sorry about that. We'll put out an update to the house rezzers early next week, which will include an updated Windlass minus this stray script. I can't give a precise date because a couple of other things need to go in it too, but certainly everything should be ready sometime next week. Once the update has happened I'll announce it in this thread. At that point you should be able to use the house controller (life preserver) to rez a new instance of your Wallower. We store all your settings for decor and access lists on a remote server, so they should transfer over automatically. If you choose to rez a new instance of the boat, all you''ll notice is that your old Wallower vanishes, leaving all your furniture in place, and a new one appears a second or so later. After a few seconds more, that changes from the default color scheme to whatever you had last selected for the old boat. 1 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moles Quartz Mole Posted May 20, 2019 Moles Share Posted May 20, 2019 I was able to run the update rather sooner than I expected, and all Live regions are now reporting that they have the new rezzer installed. So, if people want to, they should be able to fix the problem with the Windlass script simply by using the House Controller (life preserver) to rez a new copy. As discussed above, that should cause the old one to vanish, leaving its contents in place, and a new one to appear a second or so later. The new copy should retrieve the old colour and decor schemes, and the access lists, from the main KVP server. We have rechecked everything a couple of times and the problem was confined to the Windlass 32 x 32 houseboats as far as I know -- the other models and the Windass 16 x 64 weren't affected. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How I wish that it were true... At least, not for me. I just rezzed a new boat. Still navy, still won't change, still getting the same error. Tried resetting the scripts. That also didn't work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still navy, still won't change, still getting the same error. Tried resetting the scripts. That also didn't work. I'm sorry, but I think we're at cross-purposes. I was referring specifically to the problem with anna2358's Windlass houseboat, which was giving her strange messages when she touched the walls. That was because a debug script had accidentally been left in a child prim when we were checking something. My post was intended to announce only that the Windlass houseboats in the rezzers have now been replaced with ones from which the stray script has been removed, and that anyone whose Windlass is sending irritating debug messages when the walls are touched should rez a new instance of it from the house controller. I didn't know anything about a problem with the coloring of anything, or certainly not one that's to do with the scripts. Have you reported it or described it elsewhere in the forum? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
