realignment textures-prims

[Edward Nussbaum]

I have a script that rotates child prims slowly in one direction (llSetLinkPrimitiveParams)while rotating the texture slowly in the other (using llSetLinkTextureAnim). In another script is a timer that should reset the positions of the prim and the texture to the upright position after a certain time, but it's not! I know it's reading the script - I tested that - but it isn't resetting the prims at all! why is that? Is the other script overpowering it? Thanks!

It's hard to say without seeing your scripts, but it's probably worth asking yourself why you have split those two operations into two scripts instead of doing everything in one.

ETA:  Here's a rough example of an approach that works for a two-prim linkset ........

integer gON;float speed = 60.0;integer gCount;default{        touch_start(integer num)    {        if (!gON)        {            llSetLinkTextureAnim(LINK_THIS,ANIM_ON|ROTATE|SMOOTH|LOOP, 0,1,1,0.0,TWO_PI,-5.0*PI/speed);            gCount = 0;            llSetTimerEvent(0.3);        }        else        {            llSetTimerEvent(0.0);            llSetLinkPrimitiveParamsFast(2,[PRIM_ROT_LOCAL, ZERO_ROTATION]);            llSetLinkTextureAnim(LINK_THIS,FALSE,0,1,1,0.0,TWO_PI,-PI/speed);        }        gON = !gON;                }        timer()    {        ++gCount;        if (gCount%100 == 0)        {            llSetTimerEvent(0.0);            llSetLinkPrimitiveParamsFast(2,[PRIM_ROT_LOCAL, ZERO_ROTATION]);            llSetLinkTextureAnim(LINK_THIS,FALSE,0,1,1,0.0,TWO_PI,-PI/speed);            gON = FALSE;        }        else        {            rotation OldRot = llList2Rot(llGetLinkPrimitiveParams(2,[PRIM_ROT_LOCAL]),0);             llSetLinkPrimitiveParamsFast(2,[PRIM_ROT_LOCAL, llEuler2Rot(<0.0,0.0,PI/speed>)*OldRot]);        }    }}

Thanks for your help - I'm slowly learning about programming, and this is helping me a lot! I originally split it because I thought there might be a conflict between the values in the script and the timer, but I can see I am wrong. Ill put it back together and see what comes out! Illpost code snippets next time! Thanks again.
