Ok i was messing around with a script in sansar . so i did some things here and tehre in the script and at the end of my messing i decided to try if the stuff i worked on worked properly.   

I can not just go to the scene i have to build the new scene first because i changed  a 1 to a 2 in a script .. is that right ?

So i hit build  and wait for the next like 2 minutes until the scene is ready and then i have to connect to it to test my minor change.

Am i missing something or is it how script developing will be done in sansar?

 

 

As it seems most of the time is spent on the illumination process. Could tehre be like a option to just compile scripts ??

  yep you have to build a scene.

  BUT

  you can make this process faster

  make a new testing scene

  delete everything in it except a floor, a light, and a spawn, and any object you need to test.

  turn off global illumination.

  the scene should build in seconds

  Welcome in Sansar's programmer's hell.

  Really, the need to make the editor complete realtime. Like Secondlife works. Then when your done with testing in a small group. You can publish it.

  Sansar is unique like that. It isn't meant to be a second life replacement. They will get some users from there, but the target audience is much grander than that.

  I've noticed with people coming over from SL it's very hard for them to accept that this is a completely different graphics engine and scripting engine. Expecting it to be the same from a specifics standpoint is kinda confusing.

  Only from a general perspective should you expect similarities, example each should have persistence, raycasting, HUDs.

  LSL doesn't have a switch statement, so yea it's unique alright lol

  .What does graphics have to do with compiling scripts ?

  Nothing that happends on the server has to do with graphics..

  It should be possible to compile a script without rebuilding the scene .

   

  There is nothing wrong with geting the good things from second life ..

  I never said Lindens should use lsl in Sansar , its just, if you have a big scene  you should not have to build all of it to compile scripts.

  Try opening Tools>Scene Settings>Light Settings and set Global Illum Quality to No Processing in the drop down menu.  If your terrain is massive this will slow down builds.  A sparse scene is desirable for a test bed.  Contact me at help@sansar.com if you need more assistance.
