Sighs. I see you misunderstood. Perhaps I have, too, in usage of the word "Resident".
In my post, where I referenced "Andromeda Resident", change that to "Andromeda DisplayName" In a script that has been compiled to use a new function, presumably compiled under a 2.X viewer, when an AV that is logged-in under a 1.X viewer, and activates the script compiled under 2.X, will need to have results returned to him based on a 1.X compilation, and not a 2.X compilation in order to not cause a runtime error. I doubt I will be doing any scripting anytime soon in a Client 2 environment, given the major issues I have with viewer, like the entire world being a 4 x 4 inch area to work from in the middle of my 22" widescreen with great big blacked-out edges to fill-in around that 4 x 4 inch area. And there is the issue of the script editor being seriously broken. Can't edit scripts without a script editor. And there is the issue of doing an uninstall of the 2.X client, and having it delete 5 years of chat dialog as it tidies up after itself. Best thing as I see it is to not implement it. Maybe in 2012 we can look revisit it. At 04:54 PM 8/17/2010, you wrote: >This is correct.
