SL workaround: can’t drag objects to parcel
I was building in NCC over the weekend, and came across a very annoying thing: although I was wearing the right tag for the group the land is set to, if I tried to drag an object over a parcel border, I got a constant error message that told me that the parcel didn’t allow objects to be introduced.
It was tremendously annoying — I was building in the air, and couldn’t see the parcel boundaries. In any case it seemed nonsensical, because I could originate blocks in that parcel, I just couldn’t drag objects across the border.
I had a sudden inspiration though — I had created the original block with a different tag on. When I set the block to the right group, I was able to slide it over the parcel border again.
As far as I know, this is a change in the way things work … and I am not sure whether it is intended or not. Currently a parcel owner can choose to allow all residents to build, introduce objects or run scripts, or they can allow only members of the group to do that. In the past, checking to allow members of the group to build or introduce objects would have allowed anyone with the right group tag to do this. Now it seems that not only do they have to be wearing the right tag, their objects have to be wearing the right tag too.
