[opensource-dev] Review Request: STORM-58 Allow objects to have 99.99% max hollow for default hollow shape.

[aklo at skyhighway.com]

Jamey (or anyone else that would like to answer),

can you please explain "the Megaprims debacle"?  i know it's a little
off-topic, but i've always wondered why Megaprims have such a bad rep.  i
can see how they could be abused, but i don't see how the abuse could be
anything more than a minor annoyance.

Thx!  And pls forgive my asking if ppl would really not like to have
questions like this here.

I believe all prim size/parameter restraints are clamped on the server,
due to the Megaprims debacle.  I think there was some testing of hollows
greater than 95%, and some issues were run into with the physics engine.
  As the physics engine has changed twice, at least, since then I think,
it may be possible to increase it to 99%.
