dawnalphonse Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Hi ,I am very new to second life.I created my self as a bot . I dont know ..I just read it as a scripted agent .I created my avatar as bot . ThenI dont know what to do . I read the wiki and didn't understand completely as the wiki is messy with different answers .I have seen one script . Avatar follower as below . integer CHANNEL = 15; // That's "f" for "follow", haha float DELAY = 0.5; // Seconds between blinks; lower for more lag float RANGE = 3.0; // Meters away that we stop walking towards float TAU = 1.0; // Make smaller for more rushed following // Avatar Follower script, by Dale Innis // Do with this what you will, no rights reserved // See https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/AvatarFollower for instructions and notes float LIMIT = 60.0; // Approximate limit (lower bound) of llMoveToTarget integer lh = 0; integer tid = 0; string targetName = ""; key targetKey = NULL_KEY; integer announced = FALSE; init() { llListenRemove(lh); lh = llListen(CHANNEL,"",llGetOwner(),""); } stopFollowing() { llTargetRemove(tid); llStopMoveToTarget(); llSetTimerEvent(0.0); llOwnerSay("No longer following."); } startFollowingName(string name) { targetName = name; llSensor(targetName,NULL_KEY,AGENT_BY_LEGACY_NAME,96.0,PI); // This is just to get the key } startFollowingKey(key id) { targetKey = id; llOwnerSay("Now following "+targetName); keepFollowing(); llSetTimerEvent(DELAY); } keepFollowing() { llTargetRemove(tid); llStopMoveToTarget(); list answer = llGetObjectDetails(targetKey,[OBJECT_POS]); if (llGetListLength(answer)==0) { if (!announced) llOwnerSay(targetName+" seems to be out of range. Waiting for return..."); announced = TRUE; } else { announced = FALSE; vector targetPos = llList2Vector(answer,0); float dist = llVecDist(targetPos,llGetPos()); if (dist>RANGE) { tid = llTarget(targetPos,RANGE); if (dist>LIMIT) { targetPos = llGetPos() + LIMIT * llVecNorm( targetPos - llGetPos() ) ; } llMoveToTarget(targetPos,TAU); } } } default { state_entry() { llOwnerSay("/"+(string)CHANNEL+" [name of person to magically follow]"); init(); } on_rez(integer x) { llResetScript(); // Why not? } listen(integer c,string n,key id,string msg) { if (msg == "off") { stopFollowing(); } else { startFollowingName(msg); } } no_sensor() { llOwnerSay("Did not find anyone named "+targetName); } sensor(integer n) { startFollowingKey(llDetectedKey(0)); // Can't have two ppl with the same name, so n will be one. Promise. :) } timer() { keepFollowing(); } at_target(integer tnum,vector tpos,vector ourpos) { llTargetRemove(tnum); llStopMoveToTarget(); } } Can I use this script on my bot guide body , so that the other people who login and know me can type my avatar name , so that they can follow me where I go . Is this script meant to be for that . can I use this script on my bot Avatar ? It wil be easy then , if I am a teacher and I can do guidence in second life and my students can follow me easliy in second life.Hpe I will get clarifications on this code and also the purpose of bot Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sassy Romano Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Not quite. That is a follower script and would need to go into an object that is then worn by your students. The "scripted agent" thing is a bit misleading. There was a time when non human controlled avatars would just stand around on land to increase the "traffic count" and make the location look popular. Since then, you are not permitted to operate methods that artificially raise the traffic statistic of land and to do this, "bots" were only permitted under the following circumstances:- The avatar account was set to "scripted agent" The land was not set to show in search However, this was quite a long time ago and since then, LL have continually dicked around with the way that traffic features in search and it's now not significant, favouring "relevance" instead. Relevant to LL seems to convey multiple meanings and to many, the whole bots for traffic thing is rather dead. So, the short answer is that your students need the scripted object, you do NOT need to have "scripted agent" set if you are controlling the avatar at any point.

Monti Messmer Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Hi, i´ve created some guide-bots for a University sim. They wait for people and show them around the sim - but the visitors still have to follow them manually. If your guide is human-controlled (by yourself), your students only need to learn the basics of inworld movement to follow you. If you want to force them to follow you, that´s quite a bit more complicated because you need to permission and a custom SL viewer (free for download but not the official).

Sassy Romano Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Monti, no special viewer is required, just a follower script in a tempo attached hud would do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
botguide Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 So here I can use this script by attaching it on my dress ?. Then wherever I go the students can follow me by typing my name ? ..Is it correct ..Or I misunderstood the code ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sassy Romano Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 No, as I said before, the script needs to be in an object worn by the avatars that will do the following. Your students need it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
botguide Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Ok..I created an object and wear it . The object contain this script. Then my friend login to same land and i tried to follow him by typing his name as /15 monexxct . Then the script is showing that Did not find anyone name monexxct.

Sassy Romano Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Try adding "resident" to the name. LL screwed up plenty of things with poor implementation of display name vs account name Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nova Convair Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Most older scripts expect legacy names. Nova Convair is a legacy name botguide resident is a legacy name botguide is NOT a legacy name botguide is a username nova.convair is a username In addition to this 2 name types there are display names so there are 3 different names for each avatar.

botguide Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 I tried for the display as botguide resident . Still it is not working . Showing the message as DId not find anyone named .... Is it required that both people should be friends in Second life ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. You just have to type the correct name, with all of its spelling, capitalization, and blank spaces. That begs the larger question, though, of why you are expecting the user to type a name in at all. If you are having this much trouble, imagine what other users may have. It would perhaps be wise to make a small scripting change to have the script tell you who is available to follow. Then you could just pick a name from the list and go.

Nova Convair Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 You need to spell the name correctly. The last name is "Resident" and not "resident" - my bad. In my scripts i dont care because I transform names read by notecards or typed in manually into usernames. string username(string legacyname) { return llDumpList2String (llParseString2List(llToLower(legacyname) + " ", [" resident ", " "],[]), ".");} So the capitalization and resident or not doesnt matter. Everything goes on a notecard. You only need to spell it right. llSensor can be used with usernames by setting AGENT_BY_USERNAME as the type parameter. The script you posted is for a follower - an object. I don't know what tests you make but if you test things in an attachment keep in mind. An attachment can not detect it's wearer.
