AjaxLife revived

Development

No thanks to Linden Lab, I’ve fixed AjaxLife. It no longer relies on the map API - it instead builds up the missing data based on MapBlocks. It was already doing this to fix capitalisation, but was also assuming that sims already existed in the map API. As such, assorted assumptions had to be removed and various changes made (plus there’s now a really ugly bit on the server side for logging in, yay. >.>)
Note that this has two side-effects - you may have to wait a while before any given sim can be focused, and it can no longer tell when you’re trying to select a nonexistent sim. It’ll just consistently fail, and ask you to wait a bit.

But hey, we’re back! :D

    Hi Katharine, make sure you drop me a line when something like this happens in the future. We all think what you’re doing is really cool, and don’t want to arbitrarily put obstacles in your way. As to the changes that occurred, I’m not privy to the exact details, but I’m sure there were good reasons for doing it. Since you’ve figured out a way around it, there’s probably no point in me diving in too deep to figure it out, but I’m willing to do that if something like this happens again.
