Sensor Repeat

[Lili Renilo]

 llSensorRepeat("", NULL_KEY, AGENT, 5, PI, 15);

Hello, I am working with the above within a script and keep wondering the following. 

Is there a way to write a script so that the timing for the initial sensor repeat is 5 seconds but subsequent ones are a different period of time. So for example, object senses avatar and it says something in local after 5 seconds but then with an avatar still in range its subsequent repeats are 10 minutes? And that it would only reset to 5 seconds after there are no avatars in range.

I haven't seen it in any of the scripts I have looked at so far... just curious if it is even possible...

 

Thank you, Lili

Work with a timer and llSensor instead of llSensorRepeat. To change the timing, use no_sensor and sensor to set the respective timer event.

Try this

default{   state_entry()    {     llSetMemoryLimit(0x4000);     llSetTimerEvent(15);    }   timer()    {     llSensor("","",AGENT,5,PI);     }   sensor(integer t)    {             //do sensor code                 llSetTimerEvent(5);    }   no_sensor(){llSetTimerEvent(15);}}

Thank you both of you, I will play around with the timer... I haven't come across timers yet in my very early scripting learnings but it sounds like fun
