Builders - Scripters

We need builders and scripters. If you're handy with LSL and building or you know how to make LSL clothing or avatars, we have a lot of work for you. If you want to sign up, ask Timberwoof Lupindo.

Build Projects

Low-Prim Hats

The current hats for guards are primitive constructions out of two cylinders, two toruses, and a box. It would be nice to at once reduce the prim count to two or one and make the design cooler. Requirements:

• Colors: gray to dark gray, plus a white variant for medical staff
• One sculpty prim for the hat.
• Provision for one of about half a dozen badges to indicate the wearer's rank. Two prims is OK, one prim would be Very Cool.
• Accept a script to be a titler to show IC/OOC mood.
• Looks sinister.

We may sell these to nonmembers in a joint venture with a "fake" Black Gazza badge and titler.

Low-Prim Collar

The current Black Gazza collars have 55 prims. It would be very nice to reduce this.
Requirements:

• Physical design should match what we already have.
• One prim for the main sculpty collar.
• Prims for the prisoner number display.
• One prim for the titler holder above the inmate's head.

We may sell these to nonmembers in a joint venture with a "fake" Black Gazza titler.

Script Stuff

Software License

We trust each other to write good code and improve our coding skills. What you make is for yourself and for Black Gazza. You can sell stuff you develop, but don't sell stuff based on other people's code. What you develop for Black Gazza must be open to Black Gazza coders for maintenance and improvement.

Bugbase

Use the bugbase.

Naming Convention

• global variables in gCamelCaseName
• function names in lowerCamelCase
• local variables in lower_case_like_this
• local constants are UPPERCASE

Documentaiton

Document the code as you write it or fix it. If something is tweaky, explain it. Consider that the next person to see the code might your name and address and a very bad temper.
