**** UPDATED RELEASE MAY 2th 2026 *****OPENSIM WATCHDOG V3 – ALL-IN-ONE NOTIFICATION SYSTEM
SECURE SPLIT-KEYS VERSION + SIM RESTART AUTO NOTIFICATION

*** WHAT IS IT NEW FROM V2? *****
Added an extra feature: it creates now a notecard called GHOSTLIST - just add anyone`s UUID and the device won`t detect at all (SIM entering or leaving).

Based on the script from Satyr Aeon
Fully modified and extended by ChatGPT, DeepSeek AI and Claude AI

USER MANUAL
=============================================


1) REZ THE OBJECT
----------------

Rez the object in your region.

The script will start automatically.

You do NOT need to edit the script.


2) STAFF NOTECARD (OPTIONAL)
---------------------------

Notecard name: NOTIFICATION STAFF

- Add ONE avatar UUID per line.
- These avatars will receive in-world IM notifications:
• Avatar entering the region and position
• Avatar leaving the region

- The owner ALWAYS receives notifications.
- If the object is group-owned, any group member with edit rights can modify the notecard.
- Leave the notecard empty if you do not want to use staff notifications.

Example:

a8c9e85e-8076-4bd8-842d-083f0fe7c2e4
9d425ade-c383-4dae-9622-187a594ee927
340d6df7-658b-4cb8-820c-61b5cbc86cb1


**************************************************************
IMPORTANT – AUTOMATIC SECURITY ON TRANSFER
**************************************************************

You NO LONGER need to manually wipe this notecard before sharing the object.

When ownership changes:

- Telegram token is wiped
- Telegram chat ID is wiped
- Discord webhook is wiped
- Script is reset automatically
- The STAFF notecard is wiped out.

**************************************************************


IMPORTANT STAFF NOTES
---------------------

- Staff members receive messages ONLY if:
• Their UUID exists on the grid
• They have logged into the grid at least once
• UUID is valid (no missing numbers, letters or spaces)

- Staff notifications include:
• Avatar entering the region and position
• Avatar leaving the region, position and how long one remained on region.

- SIM RESTART messages:
• Are sent to the OWNER, STAFF Telegram, and Discord
• Are NOT (most of the time) sent to staff when hypergridding or UUIDs of HG avatars or when UUIDs are invalid or partial and may be ignored silently.


3) TELEGRAM SETUP
-----------------

a) Open Telegram and search for: @BotFather
b) Send command: /newbot
c) Follow the instructions
d) Copy the BOT TOKEN provided

e) Create a private chat or group for notifications
f) Obtain the CHAT ID:
- Private chat: use @userinfobot
- Group chat: add a bot and retrieve the chat ID

g) In OpenSim:
- Touch the object
- Select "Telegram"
- Choose "Set Token"
- Choose "Set ChatID"
- Enable Telegram if it is disabled


4) DISCORD SETUP
----------------

a) Open Discord
b) Go to your server
c) Server Settings → Integrations → Webhooks → New Webhook
d) Copy the webhook URL

e) In OpenSim:
- Touch the object
- Select "Discord"
- Choose "Set Webhook"
- Enable Discord if it is disabled


5) TIMEZONE SETTINGS
--------------------

Default: UTC-8

To change:

Touch object → TIMEZONE → enter a value between -12 and +12

Reference:
https://www.utctime.net/
􀀁

****************************************************************
TIME DISPLAY LABELS - IMPORTANT NEW FEATURE
****************************************************************

The script now displays different time labels in notifications:

1. GRID TIME - When using grid's default timezone
• Appears when timezone is set to match grid time
• Shows time as it appears on the grid server

2. Defined user time - When using a custom timezone
• Appears when you manually set a timezone
• Shows time adjusted to your chosen timezone

Examples in notifications:
• "John Resident entered Main Region (14:30:15 PM GRID TIME)"
• "John Resident entered Main Region (14:30:15 PM Defined user time)"

****************************************************************

Note:
- The script uses grid Unix time + your offset.
- Daylight Saving Time is handled by the grid time reference if supported.
- Changing timezone affects ALL notifications (Telegram, Discord, IM).


6) OBJECT NAME (OPTIONAL)
-------------------------

You may rename the object to identify the region:

Examples:
- Main Region
- Shop
- HQ
- Sandbox
- Event Area


7) STATUS LIGHTS and COLOR MEANINGS
------------------------------------------------
IM_light
- GREEN → In-world IM system active (always on)

STAFF_light
- RED → STAFF notecard missing
- YELLOW → Notecard exists but empty or invalid UUID(s)
- GREEN → At least one valid staff UUID loaded

TG_light (Telegram)
- RED → Token or Chat ID missing or NOT configured
- YELLOW → Telegram disabled
- GREEN → Telegram enabled and configured

DC_light (Discord)
- RED → Webhook missing or NOT configured
- YELLOW → Discord disabled
- GREEN → Discord enabled and configured


8) SECURE STORAGE
-----------------

Secrets (*) are NO LONGER stored in the main object description.

They are stored in:

- Telegram → child invisible prim named: TG_key
- Discord → child invisible prim named: DC_key

These prims store encrypted-style data in their description field.

Do NOT DELETE or UNLINK them.

(*) Token, ChatID and Webhook provided by the user.


9) WHAT GETS NOTIFIED
---------------------

Avatar enters region and SIM position (x,y,z coordinates):
- Owner (IM)
- Staff (IM)
- Telegram (if enabled)
- Discord (if enabled)

Avatar leaves region, SIM position (x,y,z coordinates) and how long one remained on region:
- Owner (IM)
- Staff (IM)
- Telegram (if enabled)
- Discord (if enabled)

Region restart (when region comes back online):
- Owner and Staff (*) (IM)
- Telegram (if enabled)
- Discord (if enabled)

(*) It often fail if hypergridding, offline or hypergriders UUIDs.



10) DETECTION SYSTEM
--------------------

- Avatar scan runs every ~5 seconds.
- NPCs are flagged as (NPC).
- Position is reported using integer coordinates. (x,y,z)
- When leaving script also detects how long it remained on region.


11) CROSS-GRID UUIDS
--------------------

- UUIDs from other grids may fail.
- Best results are with avatars that have logged into your grid at least once.


12) TROUBLESHOOTING
-------------------

STAFF NOT RECEIVING
- Avatar must exist on the grid
- Avatar must have logged in at least once
- UUID must be valid
- No spaces before/after UUID
- No empty lines

TELEGRAM NOT WORKING

- Ensure Telegram is enabled in menu

DISCORD NOT WORKING

- Telegram / Discord must be enabled

TIMEZONE NOT CHANGING

􀀀

TIME LABEL CONFUSION
- "GRID TIME" = Using grid's default timezone
- "Defined user time" = Using custom timezone you set
- Both show accurate time, just different labels to indicate source

SCRIPT NOT RESPONDING
- Reset the script
- Touch object again

INVENTORY CHANGES
- Editing the STAFF notecard reloads automatically
- If not, reset the script


13) REGION OWNERSHIP
--------------------

You do NOT need to own the region.

You only need rez rights.

💋 Petite – klein, aber ganz groß im Auftritt

Frech, funkelnd, fabelhaft.
Petite spielt nicht brav – sie verführt mit Stil und einem Hauch Unverschämtheit.
Ein bisschen Spitze, ein bisschen Glanz, und ganz viel „Ich kann, wenn ich will“.
Wer sagt, Größe zählt, hat Petite noch nicht gesehen.

Petite – die frechste Versuchung seit Luxus.
