Description

« Hide

While this issue is very similar to:
~~SVC-1073~~ - llGetStartParameter() always returns zero [Beta v1.18.3 (70780)]

This issue differs significantly in that it appears to be in the newest server release 1.21.0.85745 and llGetStartParameter only begins failing to return the passed value after a simulator is restarted. It may be a continuation of the previous bug.

To duplicate, have an object rez another object and pass a start parameter. The start parameter will be available prior to the sim reset. However, then reset the sim and the start param will be lost even though the script is not reset. (borrowed and modified code from previous bug).

REZZING

default
{
    touch_start(integer total_number)
    {
        llRezObject("test rez", llGetPos() + <0,0,1>, <0,0,0>, <0,0,0,1>, 123123);
    }
}

REZZED

default
{
    touch_start(integer total_number)
    {
        llOwnerSay((string)llGetStartParameter());
    }
}

Confirmed. This is still happening as of December 2nd, 2008.

This issue is messing up Rez-Foo boxes that are left deployed with the buildings unsaved during a sim restart, due to data kept in the start parameter getting lost during a sim restart.

Upgraded priority to 'Major' due to the sheer number of affected systems with no ability to patch or workaround (deployed houses that are not ment to be saved, vendor systems that use rez-foo to automate structure rezzing, in-progress packages left behind by creators during sim restarts, and other automated rezzable systems that use the Rez-Foo as a module, etc')

Updated to reflect the bug's continued existence in today's simulator versions.
