MLPV2 Version Tracking

== MLPV2 Version Tracking ==
MLPV2.5c
* MEMORY commands for all notecards
* During "Adjust" mode, ~memory script's limit is set to max, to allow storing new pose positions. Its limit goes back down when you leave Adjust mode. 
MLPV2.5a
This is a first cut at memory reduction for MLPV2. The goal is to reduce memory usage stats.
* ~menucfg: deleted state exit handler, moved code to entry handler.
* ~menucfg sets memory limit to usage + 100 and shuts off
* MEMORY commands for .MENUITEMS and .POSITIONS (see xxxx.example for examples)
* prints ~menu memory usage on Adjust. What about ~positions? ~pose?
* reduced memory in ~run
* "Adjust" menu button now prints current memory usage in ~menu. (Need something for ~positions as well.)
TODO in subsequent release(s):
* have posers set their memory limit low -- NOPE, leave as LSL, because they take 17K in Mono.
* have posers shut themselves down? (Currently ~menu stops them when not in use.)
* check for other scripts to lower memory.
* memory limit for ~pos? use same as ~menu, or that minus a constant?
* find out whether lists can be further optimized
* MEMORY commands for ~sequencer and ~swap
2.4z9
* sequences: omit objname in chat
* xcite: allow multiple /x in chat strings
* Changed scripts: ~sequences, ~MLPT-Xcite-adaptor4, and ~menu (version number only)
2.4z5,6,7
* Use version 2.4z7 (5 and 6 releases were replaced within hours owing to permission issues, etc.)
* Moved the "check config" feature to a separate script in MLP tools, freeing up a bit of memory in ~menu and ~memory.
* The config check is for when you think it's done: it checks for poses without positions and vice versa, or missing sounds.
* Change to ~ball that allows changing sit target without having to adjust .POSITIONS
2.4z4
* Resync when starting same anim (e.g., new pose using same anim, or choosing same pose again)
2.4z3
* BUG FIX - Since MLPV2.4w, if you change to a pose with fewer balls, avs popped off are not de-animated, and partner scripts (like xcite) are not told that the avatar stood.
* Only changed script is ~menu.
2.4 z
* Adds SOUND for sequences
2.4 y
* With this version, you may now delete unnecessary "~poser n" scripts (e.g. ~poser 5). Delete the unnecessary high-numbered ones. For couples, you need "~poser" and "~poser 1" but not the others.
2.4 w
* Should fit about 50 more couples poses (assuming button and anim names aren't long).
2.4 v
* added random expressions via ::21 (change in all ~poser scripts)
* fixed: the "build-in" typo;
* fixed: example SEQUENCES nc had debug turned on
2.4u2
* same as 2.4u, but with a 'fullstop timeout' script in the tools box
2.4u
* allow STAND as first pose chosen in a menu. Previously, rezzed no balls for STAND (used whatever balls from last menu chosen)
* provide a button for adjusting STAND in zz-adjDefault
* free up some memory in ~menu (about 2K)
* Changes to: ~menu, .readme only, .POSITIONS.zz-default
2.4t2
* Forgot to update vers # in 2.4t, please use this one.
* Changed: ~menu, ~swap.
2.4t
* Minor bug fixed: if SWAP used after reset before any pose selected, ~swap fails; reset required.
* ~MLPT-timeout added to MLP Tools box. Drop this script in so MLP will STOP when unused for one hour (editable). See MLPT readme for details.
* NOTE: In this distribution to the MLPV2 group, ~MLPT-timeout is included directly, not just in the MLP Tools box. Please give it a try and let me know if there are any problems.
2.4s
* Sequences turned "chat" off; this update fixes that. I thought I'd fixed that before, but evidently not.
* Changed scripts are ~menu (version string only), and ~sequence.
* No other changes.
2.4q
* MLPV2.4p was borked in reading positions. This fixes it. It also backs out the ~memory changes, which don't work well with the new server code (1.30.2) (as I'd suspected).
2.4p1
* fixed OFF for "CHAT Chat Info OFF" and "REDO RedoMenu OFF" configs. (Buttons worked; default settings didn't.)
* removed object name from pose chats
* reduced probability of "*" prefix in ~ball desc causing it to miss color change message
* eliminated sliced arrays in ~memory, dramatically increasing free mem (but perhaps running afoul of upcoming changes, stay tuned). followed Liz's suggestion to use one list rather than multiple. I don't know why multiple had the severe overhead. When I tested it earlier, the two methods worked the same in Mono, whereas multiple lists worked much better for LSL. However, there's an issue here, and I expect this subject will come up again, related to memory handling differences for per-parcel script memory limits.
* sitter: Instead of arrow keys adjusting, you now press both page-up and page-down to enable the arrow keys (shift left/right, up/down, and page up/down). Push page-up and page-down to disable again. This way, folks trying to adjust their view won't move their avvies.
* updated scripts: ~menu, ~memory, ~ball
* Added "ready" linked message. Uses -11003, "READY"
2.4p
* same as for 2.4p1 above, except linked message "ready" used channel 0.
2.4n4
* fixes to address some sequencing issues such as NOCHAT turning off all chat, etc.
Changes made to the following scripts: ~sequencer
2.4n3
* fixes to turning off scripts (lag reduction). Should no longer fail after sim reset. Should also fix a reanimation problem.
* Leave ~timeout running so it'll delete itself when bought
* ~timeout moved to MLP Tools kit
* Changes made to the following scripts: ~menu and and all ~poser* scripts (~poser, ~poser1, etc.)
2.4n2
* by this version, the MATURE directive was partially retired by being commented out
2.4n
* fix warning when multiple people using menu at same time (popups go to wrong people)
2.4m - add warning and truncate for pose button label too big (usually, missing "|")
- sitter adjustable poseball (start ~ball description with plus sign to activate)
v2.4l
* avoid "animating without permission" script errors (when sitter doesn't accept) -- partially solved (error gone, but something's still wrong if MLP bought when someone's on a ball.)
* MATURE directive (skip rest of card if not MATURE sim). (might ditch this)
* stop poser# scripts when corresponding ball isn't rezzed
* stop several other scripts when no balls are rezzed
v4.2k
* fix ~prop: don't jump on double-save
v4.2j
* fix ~ball: don't listen if rez-arg is zero; cancel old listen on rez.
v4.2i
* fix getrefpos issue on save
v4.2h
* warn if props aren't copiable (check for current and for next owner)
v4.2g
* Adjust mode auto-saves props too; delete trailing zeros on save
v4.2f
* STOP resets swap
v2.4e
* restarter button in MLP Tools, xcite double-stim for per-anim fixed
2.4 d
* Bug fix: SAVE after SWAP should now work correctly. Note: don't SWAP while editing a pose; it'll reset it to the previously saved position. Instead, save and then swap, after which you can save and it'll do the right thing. I should put this in the wiki!
* ~timeout put back in
2.4
* HIDDEN attribute for menus (instead of "ALL/GROUP/OWNER") for menus used only by sequences.
* NOCHAT option for sequences (use "SEQUENCE | seqname | NOCHAT") -- disables bed chatting pose name during sequence.
* SWAP behavior configurable per-pose (for poses with more than 2 balls). See "CONFIGURING SWAP FEATURE" above.
2.3k
* fixed startup race condition (stopping before reading MENUITEMS), fixed sequence labels not found
2.3j
* height menu bug fix (probably broken since 2.3's reorient menu added)
2.3i
* bug fix (remenu broken in 2.3h)
2.3h
* sequences: rez balls on sequence start
2.3g
* reset fixes:
* kill balls on reset in ~menu startup
* don't say "click to start" until ready, in ~run
----
CHANGES in MLPV2 Version 2.3:
- Supports sounds
- Supports up to 6 avatars (poseballs)
- Sequences (tours) -- set up a menu button that plays a sequence of poses and chats. You configure the sequences in a new .SEQUENCE type of notecard. More info on that here:
- When rezzed, balls are now named ~ball0 .. ~ball5, to support easy sitting for bot clients (used for machinima, not camping!) The object name in inventory has not changed.
- "Adjust Pos" is now a toggle. Try it and see! Avs can hop on and off and balls return to the 'adjusting' shape. You can also use STOP to return to normal mode.
- EZ-Adust! Now, when you're in adjust mode and you change poses, it saves the current pose before swithcing to new pose. To abandon changes, quit adjust mode, STOP, or just re-select the current pose.
- TOOLS PACK:
- "Reorient" menu for more easily adapting an existing pose set to a new furniture item
- script to check anim permissions
- script to check for unused animations
- Three different example xcite adaptor scripts (requires Xcite! Partner script from Xcite)
- AutoZhao adaptor script
- touch passer moved here, since it's never required in the MLP prim
----
CHANGES in MLPV2 Version 2.2 (unreleased other than to MLPV2 group)
- Added LMs when avs sit or unsit, to make it possible to add support for things like xcite and cuffs without modifying MLP scripts. Read more here:
- Cleaner chat on DUMP (omits object name)
----
CHANGES in MLPV2 Version 2.1:
- Props! Rez an object per pose. Object is deleted when changing to new pose, or after 3 minutes if bed is deleted.
- 15 ball colors supported!
- AUTOBACK - automatically inserts BACK before MORE--> button (optional, off by default)
- Bug fix for AUTOMORE on main menus with too many buttons. AUTOMORE no longer supported for main menu. Might be fixed some day.
- Bug fix for AUTOMORE menues with more than one extra page.
- Expression control code removed -- didn't work out. MLPV2 no longer takes controls. Of course, still compatible with all MLP and MLPV2.0 scripts.
----
CHANGES in MLPV2, Version 2.0:
- Now supports Solo, 3some, and 4some menus.
- Memory optimized: now holds over 70 couples poses.
- Expressions supported (20 expressions, constant or periodic). See "TO ADD POSES" above.
- Extended menus. (Automatic "More-->" button for menus with more than 12 buttons.)
- Menu buttons now appear in menus in the same order as in the configuration
but only if the new MENUORDER config item appears -- otherwise order is same as before, for backwards compatibility).
- Modular configuration: reads all *.MENUITEMS* and *.POSITIONS* files, in sort order (same as in object contents).
MENU config lines with no corresponding TOMENU lines get added to the main menu (replacing a blank "TOMENU -" line).
This allows makers to easily provide add-on packs, each being folder containing .MENUITEMS*, .POSITIONS*, and animations files. Customer simply drops the folder in and resets.
- Backwards-compatible with MLP V1.2 configurations.
- Ball timeouts have been disabled. This should make MLPV2 a little more efficient. However, if you move a bed with balls rezzed, you'll need to delete the balls manually.
- Set poseball's floating text and pie menu sit text by changing its description.
Also, if the ball's description begins with an asterisk ("*"), the poseball is phantom.
After changing ball's description, STOP to delete any balls and then select any pose.
- New LM button type, to pass LMs to other scripts/prims. This allows adding features to furniture, with buttons in the MLP menus, without changing any MLP scripts.
- Warning for duplicate entries in .POSITIONS* files.
- Configuration consistency checker: try "ConfigCheck" in Shutdown menu
NOTE: this will reload .POSITIONS.* files, so backup any saved positions first! It will find buttons with no positions and vice versa.
- AutoZhao support
- Restart menu reorganized:
Use "Pos Reset" button after changing *.POSITIONS* files.
Use "Menu Reset" button after changing *.MENUITEMS* files.
Use "Restart" button to restart all. This used to do only a menu reset.
- MLP bug fix: if you rez a copy, it uses the same channel as the original, and on MLP V1.2 you'd get crosstalk.
The menu script is now reset on rez. This does not reset positions; saved positions are not lost.
- MLP bug fix: Avoid reanimating a non-sitting avatar! This happened in these cases that I'm aware of:
A) Avatar is posed and STOP button is hit and then a new pose is selected. The avatar (no longer sitting) would get animated.
B) Same as above, but instead of STOP button, avatar teleports or relogs
