universe caretakers: bot SDK bug alert

Apr 24, 2004, 6:46pm
Since a few bot SDK builds, there is a problem for universe caretakers
if they set universe options using bots.

If the "Latest 2.2 Browser" value is different to the "Latest Browser"
value in the universe options, using a bot to change ANY universe
option (universe message, for example) will change the "Latest
Browser" and make it equal to the "Latest 2.2 Browser" value.

The workaround is to make both values the same in the universe
options, using a browser. Pull up "Latest 2.2 Browser" value to the
same value as "Latest Browser".

I have reported this to the AW developpers team. I'm CC-ing this
message to them too.

Although I agree with a lot on that page, I think the author is
justifying in many ways a rude and unconsiderate attitude from the
side of hackers, as if it was right to do so. A middleway may be
better?

Re: help me :)

Apr 26, 2004, 7:45am
Heu,

are you sure you are caretaker in the world? your citizen number has
to be known to the world server.

there are 2 ways to do that:

1) in the world.ini file. in thr [rights] section (more than one
caretaker? separate with comma)
[rights]
caretaker=123456,78954

2) using the remote administration tool, after you set a special
password (not your login or privilege password, a third one) in the
aworld.ini [server] section
[server]
password=my$erverPa$$word

Both are explained by Mauz on her page
http://mauz.info/worldrunning.html

If you are certain you are caretaker, then I can not help further,
maybe Andras or others can. Good luck :)

I did not chose to leave them out of my report, I mention bots
explicitely. Bots do not log in with a citizen number, they actually
log in with citizen privs. If you check world logs, you will see the
following when an entity logs in:

for tourists, a cit 0 and privs 0
for cits, a cit x and a priv y
for bots, a cit 0 and privs x

notice also that bots log in with the priv password.

In the SDK events, because AW did not at first mention privs, avatar
adds events for bots use the cit field for its privs, and of course so
do the bot user interfaces. It is inconsequent, but presents no
problems, as one can distinguish a cit from a bot by its name (the
famous [...] thingies)

I tried to keep it readable in the pages... for technical and
especially non-technical people. If you have a suggestion on how I
can rephrase it, welcome: xelag at 3dee.nl

Oh it will... the fact is, unless this is solved at world server
level, we will not get a watertight solution. If you start analising
the case, you will see a few problems:

case 1: how do you distinguish the live from the ghost? how do you
make sure that when you get an avatar delete, you delete the ghost and
not the live (if both are present)? In fact, you need to have a
counter, counting up and down the number of adds and deletes per
session number... In these cases, the SDK also gets confused, and chat
does not propagate.

case 2 and 3: which session number is valid? the last one received,
or the previous one? Bots are mobile, and entities can come in and
out of reach. Since for the world server, both the ghost and the live
are real, you can get avatar add and avatar delete for both session
numbers.

Bots in global mode should be able to solve these problems easier, but
it's not a 5 minutes work, I've been at it for months :)

Alex

Ghosts

Apr 30, 2004, 2:36am
What I forgot to mention is that, in the very begining of the SDK, we
did not even get the citizen number in the avatar add and delete event
(and no privs of course) so you could not even know who owned a bot.
And you could not even know what citnum XelaG or E N Z O had, except
by querying the universe server for the citnum of a name.

This was for me the reason to introduce the xelagot greet. At least
xelagots could identify themselves and their owners to other xelagots.

It took a while for AW to realise the cit was important. Botmakers
from the start pointed out to AW that cit, privs and IP (for bots with
eject rights) should be sent to bots directly with the events
concerning entities entering a world... after a while, first cit and
then much later privs were added, IP is still a matter of querying the
world server. Seems that what AW itself does not need for its own
projects is of no concern: no vision in this sense, and certainly they
do not consult other programmers who do have some sort of experience
about all this.

Lower AW's rating back to PG

Graf Dracul,

these ratings set by AW are only due to commercial needs. Parents in
USA and some other countries think they need this, so AW implements it
to be able to sell and to comply to laws and expectations. It has
little to do with reality, kids bypass all these adult expectations
anyway :)

AW 3.5

Apr 29, 2004, 4:54pm
incorrect. you may not get the upgrades, but you wont get them either
when AW makes upgrades compulsory. you keep older versions at your own
risk, because new world features will not work with older browsers:

1) terrain offset
2) water under terrain
3) special urls that send signals to bots (aworld:?)
etc...

i suggest that worlds that do use the new features place a global mode
bot that ejects on entry (with an explanatory message, of course) all
browsers that are lower than a certain build. i will provide either a
xelagot script for that, or include it in the xelagot options :)

Jaguar, world owners also have rights. If you have, as world owner,
spent a lot of time and care building your world with certain
properties, and someone comes in and sees a mess, they may want to
decide you must come in with the right browser.

I'm adding this feature to the next xelagots: the caretaker bot can
set a minimum browser restriction, send a message about this to the
person, and can optionally eject the person for 20 seconds.

The don't need to use this feature, but they can if they think their
work requires this :)

[View Quote] >"The[y] don't need to use this feature, but they can if they think their

Exactly, zeofatex.

If people stop being so emotional about changes in layout and
features, and just try them out honestly, you might find out a lot of
goodies are in store, and more will come. If you don't want the
goodies, it's your choice, it's also the world and universe owner's
choice to allow what they will. Fair is fair.

But don't expect that a universe owner (let alone AW) will keep on
supporting older builds. 2.2 browsers are banned, and AW will
certainly ban browsers when security or other changes call for it.

What I do hope is that newer browsers and bot SDKs will allow backward
compatibility. That is for me essential to carry on supporting my bot
development.

AW 3.5

May 1, 2004, 5:27pm
From http://www.activeworlds.com/help/aw35/beta.html


Toolbar images can now be variable size. The button size is the height
of the toolbar image divided by 5.

....
More info on the toolbar.cfg file
The new toolbar will load the toolbar_image.bmp from the /default
directory. This image is divided into 32x32 images to be used as
toolbar buttons. The buttons are numbered horizontally starting with 0
on the left. The image file is divided into four rows as follows:

Row 1: Image of button in its normal, unpressed state.

Row 2: Image of button pressed

Row 3: Image of button in its normal, unpressed state with mouseover.

Row 4: Image of button pressed, with mouseover

Open the toolbar_image.bmp to see how this works.
....

I don't know if it would help making 1x16 pixel buttons, at least more
should fit in the toolbar.

Well I suppose it is easier to write on sign objects than on picture

write a description and show what it is. Once you click on the object,
the media download starts and the screen changes. But maybe picture
objects could also be used?

even the 3.6 beta testers do not know yet full details of how this

Re: AW 3.5

May 1, 2004, 9:06pm
Yes, I think the explicit animation buttons really need rethinking (so
does the avatar list). One solution is what I have in xelagot, a
screen with two lists with scroll bars, one for avatars, one for their
corresponding gestures (caretaker bots see it if they downloaded
Andras zipdll.dll plugin). However wide or narrow the aw browser,
this has always been a problem.

Sharon,

I don't say let the pervs roam, I have taken action against child
molestors before in AW. But I do say do not generalise, as was done.
If you have to report, do so, but then to the proper authorities. Send
logs to the ISPs, report to AWI, if necessary to the police.

This I call generalising:
"The truth is we have more bondage sadomasochistic worlds than ever
before and any kids can go in them. All they have to do is lie about
their age to a bot. We have people claiming to be one sex when they
are another and young when they are old. The standard answer is let
the Mom and Dad deal with it, just keep sending in the money. The
people behind the keys here in Active World are real and they are hurt
by pedophiles and other sick deviant behavior".

If there are pedophiles in AWI (and the probabilities are they are
anywhere, not only here), the poster throws everything into one
basket: adult worlds, people claiming wrong sex or wrong age, and goes
on to pedophiles. His/her main theme is to protect our children.

Excuse me, but if this is not a sort or scrambling, I don't know what
to call it.

If there are grown up individuals who are *approaching* young kids
with explicit sexual intentions here, they should go, sure. This does
not justify the harrassment of adult worlds, or virtual age or gender.
Parents are responsible where their children go, both in RL and in VR.
Children will see transgender in the streets of London, New York or
Calcutta, and people hiding their age. Internet has its own perils
too.

I'm not trying to minimise the problem, Sharon, and I know it is a
difficult and sensitive subject, and even more difficult to act
effectively agains child molestors. But we gain nothing by pointing
the finger at people and groups who are minding their own legitimate
business, and who are often attacked by people who do not share their
lifestyles.

Alex

TheMask,

each case is different. The basics is that the 'child' learns or has
learned to be equipped to face the challenges. That is the purpose of
upbringing and education. This requires a relationship of trust
between parends/guardians and child. The object can not be to keep a
child in a sterile and germ free environment, but to give them the
tools they need and teach them to use them, and the protection they
need while they can not use these tools. Every situation in life has a
certain risk factor, this includes growing up.

This learning process goes on all your life, it does not stop at 20,
as some say. The younger the more vulnerable, true in general,
especiall at very early ages. Some people learn, some people never
learn. Legally, your parents or guardians are responsible for you
until you reach a certain age; that does not mean that you have no
responsability yourself, on the contrary, it is not like when you
reach a certain age your parents stop and you start to be responsible,
there is no magic age line. If the relationship of trust between you
and your parents means that they need not monitor you, all the better.

Bro,

I was being ironical, if you did not notice it. You had the bad taste
to throw adult worlds and others in the same basket as child
molesters: that was my reply to you. If you are targeting child
molesters, target child molesters, don't bring into the subject
categories that do not belong.

Alex

Sharon,

If I understand you properly, you object to someone hiding gender and
age, you call it damaging for other people. I can partially agree
with you on this, at least, I feel unconfortable in such situations.
But what damage is actually caused? The only damage I see is if a
certain task requires honesty in this... and even then, this is no
grounds for witch hunt.

The whole thread was started by Bro, creating a climate of red-alert
about children protection. In this climate, adult worlds, age and
gender mascarading, pedophiles, were all put into one basket. And
then the spear was pointed at one individual, who is not directly
accused of molesting children... but in the context that has been
created, is put into that danger category.

This is the modern version of witch hunt hysteria: create a climate of
panic and then point your finger at individuals. If you or anyone has
serious problems with someone gender and age mascarading, you should
have stuck to that from the begining, without first creating a
mediaeval stage. How on earth do you expect to be taken seriously
otherwise?

Alex

Sharon,

I'll be short in answering, as my previous posting says it already.
The way this whole issue was brought in, by creating a high tension
general feeling of disgust for child molestors, and then directing
this feeling on one person is basically wrong and for me, outrageous,
it is a crass witch hunting technique. That is what I criticise.
This invalidates the whole argument as it was presented.

If you are talking of a specific person comitting fraud, i.e. misusing
the right that a person has of role-playing in VR sense, for dishonest
purposes, you might want in future to chose a differnt approach than
witch hunting.

No, I'm not selectively listening, I think you are :)
