I'm going to be going to iraq in the summer for a year. Won't get much time with an actual data connection but I still want to be able to write LSL from over there. Is there anyway to run SL offline and res like just a blank sim so I can test my creations there?

Thanks.

Best of luck, Zip.

Even if there was no way to save objects back to the grid, for us scripters a local client would be wonderful for scripting at the office ALL DAY!

Local sims sound fairly memory-intensive, but there's no reason an LSL compile-time debugger couldn't be released. Hell, being able to have the compiler check my work is most of the reason I script in-world.

You can script offline, and make sure there are no errors in the script, just not test it.. Most scripters use SciTE-ez I believe..

I just started using SciTE-ez (love that Ctrl-B!), but I didn't know it could check for errors. How do I get it to do that?

When you want SL to run on Linux only and take up a couple of hundred meg of RAM?

I suspect if this was the only parameter, many of us would be fully able/willing. I usually run SL under Linux and have plenty of ram to spare.

Sorry I've only heard about it, never used it, I just heard that it would tell you about syntax errors etc?

Probably wrong
