Fixed bug when connecting by script to a remote computer, causing guest permission to be obtained sometimes instead of using the permissions obtained in shell.connect_service, showing the message "Denied. Only root user can execute this command." when using the methods install_service, start_service and stop_service in the same script execution as the connection.
Miniscript is the language on which GreyScript is forked. Due to various changes and improvements of the new Miniscript some scripts may need some adjustments to work with the new version.
This build also adds a new general scripting method called get_custom_object which returns an empty Map object that can be used to share data back and forth with programs launched with shell.launch
In addition to the Miniscript update, various improvements and fixes have been made on server side to improve stability.
The experimental build will remain open for a couple of days In case any tester needs to copy any script left there.

This build updates Miniscript to the latest version 1.5.1
Miniscript is the language on which GreyScript is forked. Due to various changes and improvements of the new Miniscript some scripts may need some adjustments to work with the new version. During the experimental build, the testing will focus on compatibility with scripts from the old version as well as performing several stress tests on the server to verify that no new bugs has been introduced.
This build also adds a new general scripting method called get_custom_object which returns an empty Map object that can be used to share data back and forth with programs launched with shell.launch
Once the experimental version is considered stable, it will be merged into the public version without a database wipe. Still in the case of some unforeseen critical bug found during testing it is possible that the Miniscript update will be delayed until the Nightly build.
