[[Solved] Firestorm website repeating "Verify you are human"]

This is Cloudflare's fault again (this thing is a total nuisance)... However it only repeats the check once for me, then allows redirection to the website.

Usual suspect for failures with Cloudflare are:

• Disabled Javascript in you browser.
• Disabled Cookies in you browser.
• Unknown ”User agent” sent/advertized by your browser to the site. This sadly also badly impacts many ”confidential” (rarely used) forks of common browsers.

Thanks. Not either of the first two, but Edge worked fine where Chrome failed.

[[Solved] Firestorm website repeating "Verify you are human"]

Trying to download the latest Firestorm I'm finding access to the Firestorm website is blocked by this:

Checking if the site connection is secure

Verify you are human

www.firestormviewer.org needs to review the security of your connection before proceeding.

Checking the verify checkbox appears to reload this same page.

Any suggestions as to what's happening here?

[Accept Experience or No Entry]

I have a vague memory of something called "Key Experience", which is, I think, an estate level setting that requires visitors to a region to belong to a particular experience or be denied entry. I've not used it myself.

[Using sensor to populate dialog box of nearby avatars]

I only skimmed it, but I don't see that on the cited page. The last time I tried to implement that, I used some new linkset data functions which happen to count bytes rather than characters.

It's in the most indented items under the "buttons limits" heading:

Quote

any list item string length (measured in bytes, using UTF-8 encoding) is zero or greater than 24.

• In other words, a button's text when encoded as UTF-8 cannot be longer than 24 bytes or a empty string.
• This snippet can be used to truncate the string without giving an error: llBase64ToString(llGetSubString(llStringToBase64(theString), 0, 31))

 

[Using sensor to populate dialog box of nearby avatars]

The LSL wiki page for llDialog includes a code snippet that'll trim strings including multi-byte characters to 24 bytes.

Also, you could use the changed event and CHANGED_TEXTURE to trigger the report.

[Detecting detach?]

Any code in the attach event that isn't executed before being derezzed gets executed when the object is next rezzed, and before the attach event is is triggered for the reattachment.

[Curly Braces Indentation]

For what it's worth, the braces issue has been fixed in the latest Friestorm.

[Curly Braces Indentation]

I think auto-unindentation stops working following a line of text that wraps-around.

[HUD UUID]

In the Firestorm viewer (I don't know about others) there's a Copy Keys button near the bottom of the General tab of the build window which seems to work even for other people's no modify objects.

[RLV @attach Function Issues]

I think the RLV command @attachover will work here.

[Deleting and Folders]

Also, Ctrl+click for adding or removing single items (which includes whole folders and their sub-folder) to or from a selection.

[projector and multiple images script]

You could try "preloading" the images by placing them on some object faces in the vicinity of the main display, so that they're already loaded into viewer cache before they're projected, and you could try setting the transparency of those faces to 100%, or colouring them black, so that they're not too intrusive.

[Scam Alert Posted to Twitter - Multiple User Reports]

The script function to deliver a text box to an avatar (any avatar in the same region) will work from any rezzed object, whether it's rezzed on the ground or attached to an avatar (either the avatar being targeted or by a completely different one – even an avatar completely unaware of it's presence).

It could be triggered by almost any event (a sensor response, a collision, an avatar attaching the object containing the script; there are many other possibilities).

[Fun with Physics in Second Life]

A long time I was given a completely unscripted physical clock when I came across its builder in a sandbox. It usually seems to run for a few minutes before something breaks it.

[New Trudeau One owner; mooring & other sailing questions]

You can circumvent autoreturn by carrying a passenger - perhaps an alt running on a second instance of your viewer.

[How to make script wait for user input?]

Unless I'm completely misunderstanding your question, I think the answer is to initiate the dialog after the data from the text box has been received.

integer text_box_channel = 1;
integer dialog_channel = 2;

state_entry ()
{
    llListen (text_box_channel, "", "", "");
    llListen (dialog_channel, "", "", "");
}

touch_start (integer count)
{
    llTextBox (llDetectedKey (0), "text", text_box_channel);
}

listen (integer channel, string name, key id, string message) //the id parameter is that of the avatar using the text box or dialog
{
    if (channel == text_box_channel)
    {
        //do text box stuff
        llDialog (id, "test", ["button1", ...], dialog_channel); //use the id parameter to target the dialog at the avatar that used the text box
    }
    else if (channel == dialog_channel)
    {
        //do dialog stuff
    }
}

[A HUD to detect when a wearable item is detached]

Assuming you're using the attach event to detect when the item is attached, you can also use it to detect when it's detached: in this case the key id parameter is NULL_KEY, as opposed to the key of the avatar to which it is attaching to.

A couple of lines of code will be (fairly reliably) executed when the item is detached. Note that any code not executed will be then be executed when the item is reattached before the attach event is triggered again.

[Multiple Users Using HTTP Requests Post Request (Values overwritten)]

Use the id data from the touch event (click) only to initiate the text box. In the listen event that handles the data sent from the text box, you get both a key id value and a string message value. These should make clear which user sent which message.

[Issue with listfindlist]

Just a quick glance at the code here (so I'm likely way off line) but this bit isn't usual:

integer index = (~llListFindList( USERS, [llDetectedName(0)]));
if(index != -1){ONLIST = TRUE;llOwnerSay("user onlist = TRUE");}

If the variable index is assigned the return from ~llListFindList it will never equal -1 because ~(-1) is 0.

Try

integer index = (llListFindList( USERS, [llDetectedName(0)]));
if(~index){ONLIST = TRUE;llOwnerSay("user onlist = TRUE");}

In the quoted wiki example the value of ~llListFindList is not saved. It is usual here to save the returned index from llListFindList, and then test (~index) and if that's non-zero to use the value of index in any further operations.

Hope this doesn't further muddy the waters if I've got it completely wrong.

SLAM (incorporating the double slash motif) is a content brand in SL, with both in-world and marketplace stores. A quick look, however, didn't find the "phone" keyword among its products.

[What do I do to choose only one face of the prim?]

You'll have to call llSetColor four times, once for each individual face. 

You could also consider using llSetLinkPrimitiveParamsFast, where this can be done with a single function call (albeit with quite a few items in the list parameter).

(Or call llSetColor once for ALL_SIDES, and then twice more to change the front and back faces to what they ought to be.)
