Linked prim sliding door script?

[AdamZadig]

i have a sliding door script but it cannot be linked to other prims, does anyone have or can send me a link to where i can get a sliding door script that can be linked to other objects?

This forum is for people who want to discuss ways of making their own sliding doors or whatever.   It's not a script-finding service.  

If you want some to give you or sell you a script, try posting in Wanted or Employment or somewhere more appropriate.

The second hit in my search took me to this, in the Forum Script Library:

i did try this one but it didnt work, the whole object moved. also i have an object with several linked prims and they move on different axis. so would need one script for one set of directions and another for another direction

Then you are using it incorrectly.  That sliding door will work quite well as written.

The script, as written must be placed in the root prim, not the door, and the door must not be the root prim.

If the whole object is moving, that sounds to me as if you have not followed the instructions in Rolig's script:  

// All prims in the door must be named "DOOR", and none can be the root prim of the linkset

100% not working. can you try it in world and let me know? ive done exactly as it asks.

 

[AdamZadig]

its on the root and the doors are called DOOR

As I said, you're doing something wrong.  I just dropped the script into a quickly-built demo, and sent it to you.

[Rolig Loon]

Perhaps you forgot to tell the script how far to move the door?  Something other than zero?

[Innula Zenovka]

Have you given the variable 

float gDistance; // Adjust to set the distance the door should move long its local Y axis

a value?    The script needs telling how far you want the door to move.   

[Rolig Loon]

Exactly.

I love you!! thank you so much!! 

is there any way to change the axis the movement goes?

[Rolig Loon]

To quote the script note in the Library:  "You could easily change that orientation by changing the order of X,Y,Z parameters in the vector <0.0, gDistance*gON, 0.0>."

A,azing. thanks rolig. im learning slowly but getting there. now i have a closet with 2 doors and 3 draws and each has its own script to work individually,

Fantastic.  Once you start experimenting, it's hard to stop.
