Well, okay, not quite so bad as all that - but there is a reason we get updates on a Wednesday rather than on a Friday - it leaves a couple days to fix things if they go sour. Stuff that gets broken on a Friday even generally stays that way until .. well, usually Tuesday.The broken function is llGiveInventoryList() which gives someone a bunch of objects in a named inventory folder. Most objects that give you multiple items use this function. The breakage occurs in that (since the rolling update today) the function does not now give you the items in a folder. Scripts go into your scripts folder, notecards to your notecards folder, animations to your animations folder, clothing and body parts to their respective folders, and (worse!) are automatically worn!
This alone promises a poor weekend for Residents who spend their time helping newbies.
1. Luckily, when I got a freebee box to give me a named folder full of clothes and other stuff today, I didn't have any issues, because it had me buy it from the box for L$0.
So there's one of the workarounds.
