I've been working on a flying leisure craft and discovered an interesting bug I haven't been able to overcome as of yet. Whenever someone rezzes something onto the craft, the rezzed object brings the boat to a complete stop.
Normally this wouldn't be an issue (its actually a pretty cool idea since we could moor the boat and use it as a stage), but some twit (Jade something...) in Cordova plunked a %^*&ing slot machine onto the boat, essentially hijacking us until I had the presence of mind to Edit move the boat out of way of the offender and making way.
Has anyone come up with ways to overcome this kind of stuff script wise? Like an Anti-Rezzing forcefield or something?

It could be that the rezzed object creates interpenetration with a physical object (your vehicle)
SL's reaction to physical objects interpenitration is to turn off physics. This may be your problem.
This happens a lot during sim crossings. If this your problem I have a (hacky) solution.
Basically, have a script running on a timer, checking if the object is still physical. If not, attempt to enable physics. If physics still can't be turned off, setpos self upwards, and try again. Repeat until you get physics, or you give up.
Memory is fuzzy, but I think I documented this on the wiki.

another solution

another solution is to on that same timer instead of moving up when it can't turn physical, have it turn phantom and try again.
