Bullets won't move

[Aaleyah Lovell]

Hello, pretty simple problem that I can not figure out! The gun when in mouselook will rez the bullet but the bullet just floats at the rez point and does not move... I used the code from the second life wiki and it did the same thing as my code below...

 

float SPEED = 100.0; 
integer LIFETIME = 7; 
float DELAY = 0.2; 
vector vel; 
vector pos; 
rotation rot; 
integer have_permissions = FALSE; 
integer armed = TRUE;
string bulletName = "bullet 1.0";
fire()
{
if (armed)
{
armed = FALSE;
rot = llGetRot(); 
vel = llRot2Fwd(rot); 
pos = llGetPos(); 
pos = pos + vel; 
pos.z += 0.75; 

vel = vel * SPEED; 

llTriggerSound("Zapper Noise", 1.0); 
llRezObject(bulletName, pos, vel, rot, LIFETIME); 

llSetTimerEvent(DELAY); 
}
}
default
{
state_entry()
{
if (!have_permissions) 
{
llRequestPermissions(llGetOwner(), 
PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION| PERMISSION_TAKE_CONTROLS); 
}
}
on_rez(integer param)
{
llPreloadSound("Zapper Noise"); 
}
run_time_permissions(integer permissions)
{
if (permissions == PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION| PERMISSION_TAKE_CONTROLS)
{
llTakeControls(CONTROL_ML_LBUTTON, TRUE, FALSE);
llStartAnimation("hold_R_handgun");
have_permissions = TRUE;
}
}
attach(key attachedAgent)
{ 
if (attachedAgent != NULL_KEY) 
{
llRequestPermissions(llGetOwner(), 
PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION| PERMISSION_TAKE_CONTROLS); 
}
else
{
if (have_permissions)
{
llStopAnimation("hold_R_handgun");
llStopAnimation("aim_R_handgun");
llReleaseControls();
llSetRot(<0,0,0,1>);
have_permissions = FALSE;
}
}
}
control(key name, integer levels, integer edges) 
{
if ( ((edges & CONTROL_ML_LBUTTON) == CONTROL_ML_LBUTTON)
&&((levels & CONTROL_ML_LBUTTON) == CONTROL_ML_LBUTTON) )
{
fire();
}
}

timer()
{
llSetTimerEvent(0.0);
armed = TRUE;
}

}

If its not moving, the first thing I would check for is if the bullet object is physical. Believe a non physical will simply ignore the velocity component.

That is a typical case of bullets without physics.

Go to Edit mode.

Rez the bullet on the ground. Do not release it!

Set it to PHYSICAL and TEMPORARY. (Do not forget temporary or you will see bullets returned to you by land owners for a week or more...)

Take it quickly!

Replace the bullet in the gun. Done!
