Removes the spurious log warnings if groups are active when NPCs are used.
Adds more regression tests associated with adding messages to the event queue
CorssRegion, TeleportFinishEvent).
Have Simian grid service return the region size.
Many teleport related debug log messages. Can be removed when teleport
works (like that's ever going to happen).
The major departure from flotsam is to send only one message per destination region, as opposed to one message per group member. This reduces messaging considerably in large groups that have clusters of members in certain regions.
- Child and root agents are only closed after 15 sec, maybe
- If the user comes back, they aren't closed, and everything is reused
- On the receiving side, clients and scene presences are reused if they already exist
- Caps are always recreated (this is where I spent most of my time!). It turns out that, because the agents carry the seeds around, the seed gets the same URL, except for the root agent coming back to a far away region, which gets a new seed (because we don't know what was its seed in the departing region, and we can't send it back to the client when the agent returns there).
successfully tested, and I'm merging back those changes, which proved to
be good.
Revert "Revert "Cleared up much confusion in PollServiceRequestManager. Here's the history:""
This reverts commit fa2370b32e.
When Melanie added the web fetch inventory throttle to core, she made the long poll requests (EQs) effectively be handled on an active loop. All those requests, if they existed, were being constantly dequeued, checked for events (which most often they didn't have), and requeued again. This was an active loop thread on a 100ms cycle!
This fixes the issue. Now the inventory requests, if they aren't ready to be served, are placed directly back in the queue, but the long poll requests aren't placed there until there are events ready to be sent or timeout has been reached.
This puts the LongPollServiceWatcherThread back to 1sec cycle, as it was before.
This adds explicit cap poll handler supporting to the Caps classes rather than relying on callers to do the complicated coding.
Other refactoring was required to get logic into the right places to support this.
This is to deal with the hundred lines of command splurge when one previously typed "help"
Modelled somewhat on the mysql console
One can still type help <command> to get per command help at any point.
Categories capitalized to avoid conflict with the all-lowercase commands (except for commander system, as of yet).
Does not affect command parsing or any other aspects of the console apart from the help system.
Backwards compatible with existing modules.
