Coagulate Visitor Metrics Version 2.1

NOTE: All the names in the example images are blanked out by white boxes.

NOTE: This item is no-copy/trans, trans is needed for group deeding. Copy/trans objects aren't a good thing to sell generally. I know Second Life breaks no-copy stuff all the time, and hate this setup, if you have issues with your no-copy item please don't hesitate to contact me for a replacement, or to discuss other options if this is a recurring issue.

Also note: there is a free version of this product, with the only difference being a 'title' line on the display, and enforced naming of the prim (the name the instant messages/ejects come from), see below for a link. The "costed" version is for people who wish to make a donation for the tool, or wish to personalise it for their sim (if you can afford a sim, you can spare me a couple of USD, right? :) )

This is a highly configurable product that can be used to display a number of lines detailing the highest script users, simulator cpu time, and users with the lowest heights.

The colour banding of red/green/yellow displays can be configured, as can each section of the board.

The device can also be configured to issue warnings to avatars who are (optionally) over a certain script count, or under a certain height. These warnings can be set to repeat periodically, and the product can also be configured to kick avatars who do not recitify the problem. Can also optionally enforce a minimum avatar age (without the warnings, as the avatar can not 'rectify' this situation).

PLEASE NOTE: All functionality is optional - script display and height display are optional and can be disabled if you just want to use the enforcement features. All enforcement features are optional and can be disabled if you just wish to use the display features. Heck, you can disable both the enforcement and display settings if you like, which will result in a rather useless object that does nothing of value. The product is *highly* configurable.

Due to the huge configurability, this product can consume as little as 1 prim if you simply want the "sim wide height/script checking" features, up to as many prims for as much information you want displayed (4 prims per line). The text display uses mesh to achive 8 character per prim vs the conventional 6 characters per prim. I'm not a fan of the 12 character per prim text display designs which uses a huge number of textures to render a display, which chokes your sim, and the viewer, and makes for a very slowly loading board. This feature could be implemented however if there is massive demand.

Please note that there is an upcoming change to the costing of scripted mesh objects which may well *REDUCE* the total number of prims consumed. The 4 prims per line should be considered the maximum the object will use and you may well find the number is less than this. It will not be higher.

It is recommended review the instruction manual which will give you an idea of what the product can be configured to do. Any purchase of the product - either the free or the costed version - can supply you with the instructions notecard by clicking on it and picking "Instructions" from the menu, or you can download the Instruction Manual for free below.

The object (the costed version) ships as transfer / no-copy, as redeeding to a group may be required to utilise the "kick" functionality. The free version is copy/trans since you can just get more for free. If you have problems with the object due to glitches in second life eating your no-copy version, please IM me for a replacement which I will be happy to issue unless I deem the requests are becomming "abusive of my generosity" - that is if you ask for a replacement every day for a year, expect to be turned down at some point, however I don't expect this to be an issue. With the cheap price of the paid version as well as the existance of the free version it should be fairly clear I'm not making this product with "Profit" as a significant motive.

Thanks, and hope the product is useful to you.

Please feel free to address any feedback, comments, or suggestions to me.

VERSION 2: Now with the ability to kick based on avatar's age (avatars younger than x days are removed from the sim/parcel). Disabled by default, see the configuration!
