Hi,

Maybe you should post this in opensim-dev too.

That's really odd, I have done that action a few times myself. Hmm,
maybe you should try a "bake"?

Assuming that you're referring to the viewer by SecondLife, that is
still a bit problematic. Unless you're high enough above the terrain,
it can cause your viewer to crash as the ground level suddenly is
above avatar.
With normal (in-world) elevations your avatar would pop up or down
along with the action (as seen in SL). That is normal behaviour. I am
not sure, but my guess is that if you elevate on the server-side and
make the height too different (lots higher) that the avatar position
you see that effect that you experienced.
I don't think that the Simulator stopped for that reason, it shouldn't
at least. Try again, if you can...

That's one for the devs, as I have no programming experience.

Good luck
