Have been out of touch for awhile and when I went to display the comments page for llTargetOmega look what I found at the bottom of the page:

Stoping rotation and setting to some default value in 1.15.0 (2):
When you check the rotation of object using llGetRot(), it is not affected by end-state caused by llTargetOmega() (although you can see the values in the edit form). Trying to llSetRot() to the same value does nothing (probably optimalization on server side). The trick is you have to set rotation to different value and then to the desired value.
llTargetOmega(<1.0, 0.0, 0.0>, 0.0, 0.0); // stop the rotation
llSetRot(<0.1, 0, 0, 1>;); // some bogus value
llSetRot(<0.0, 0, 0, 1>;); // desired rotation
baaaaaaaad porn links followed this

(Links removed from this post)

Security bug in the wiki or what? DO we need to log in to comment now or what?

Yeah, it's a new policy: have to age-verify to access the scripting wiki. ;)

A 2D griefer!

If it is wiki managed content, you, or someone else, should be able to revert it back to the previous version.

There have been issues with wiki spambots attacking a lot of different wikis running on popular wiki software packages for many months now. The Wiki needs to have the ACLs restricted to logged-in users only, and to install effective, irreversible CAPTCHAs for creating new accounts.

Also, the ones in the comments section cannot be removed by anyone except an admin or the comment owner, as they are secured to prevent people from modifying one another's comments in debates and such.

Any spam in the page itself can be reverted easily enough by anyone; just be sure to revert it to the latest unspammed version.

This is why I rarely go to the old wiki anymore.
Speaking of which, we could really use people writing examples and filling out the pages with information (you can't copy it from the old wiki). You can post your own content from the old wiki or the content of people who have given explicit permission (I give permission to anyone who wants to repost my content from the old wiki onto the new wiki).

https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Category:LSL_Needs_Example

The ACLs are broken on the old wiki, it has to do with an incompatibility of character sets. The ACLs are properly set, it's the wiki config & scripts that need fixing.

As ResMod: Could you remove the porn links from your post?

I removed the links...........

I guess I'll start trying to throw an example in now and then now. Bare bones, as small a number of lines of codes to demonstrate the function. For the beginning scripters sometimes the scripting library examples are toooo over the top and I remember getting lost in the code. I had always wanted to do this before but I was so damned mad at the whole wiki debacle when I left a few months ago. Now that it has settled down to one, I'll give it a go.

I hadn't really considered that some of the examples might be too complex. They shouldn't be deleted unless they are off-topic but just better ones put above them.

There was a lot of drama going on then. Things have definitely quieted down, just wish they weren't so quiet at times.
