Invisible Avatar

[Maldiras]

Hello all,

being a Beginner at scripting I have still have questions. Several of those will look easy for most, but yeah.

The basic idea is, that an Avatar is sitting on my object and then he should turn invisible so that only the object is visible.

I'm guessing that this is possible with RLV.

@detach[:attachpt]=force (*)  and force attach somehow....

hope you got some pointers for me

You could use RLV to strip the avatar completely and apply a full body alpha, but that would need a measure of preparation in which the user was complicit.

You might also use the RLV command setheight to set the user's hover height so high or so low that they effectively disappeared from sight.

Or you could use a sit animation (you'd have to source a suitable animation) or a sit target (entirely LSL script) that also moved the avatar so high or low that it effectively disappeared from sight.

llSitTarget() has a range of about 300m, so it's easy to hide someone the moment they sit. But the avatar will stay there on unsit so not reappear. That requires more efforts.

An animation with an offset has a range of 10m - enough to hide underground - and the avatar will reappear on unsit.

Making the avatar invisible is the most difficult way and requires preparations made by the avatar b4 usage plus active RLV  - so that doesn't sound practical - except you only want it for yourself.

hmm so easiest idea is to hide underground.
