I checked and rechecked, but sometimes aw will return a spurious pointer in
AW_EVENT_AVATAR_ADD to the aw_user_data request especially in an empty
world. unfortunately this does not happen consequently but it is something
to look out for. my workaround is to check the pointer address for a valid
range, since ( at least what i noticed) it useally returns a ridiculous
address.

Hi Miles,

Yes, it only happened 3 times so far out of the uncountable times it was
triggered. I enter an empty world avatar_add get's triggered spuriously
with (ofcourse) nonsense as data....i can't think of a program error that
generates avatar add events itself?

Regards Chaz

I'm getting the complete opposite when I enter a world in Global Mode. The
avatars that are already in the world are not reported when the bot starts,
unlike when aw_state_change is issued. When a new avatar DOES enter the
world, that is when events are received for all the avatars. Bizarre.
