Hello! I have recently been attempting to convert one of my land-based planes into a seaplane. I have successfully installed floats on it, but find that my aircraft sinks like a rock. The aircraft in question is an mm_MXS-R 1.2 by Michie Yokosuka, and the mm_MXS-R_script_1.2 it contains is marked as 'no modify'. Therefore, I have since been trying to learn how to create a patch script which I can insert into my plane's root prim, that will allow my plane to float on water. Based on past forum posts, I have crafted the following script, but it does not seem to work: default { state_entry() { vector pos = llGetPos(); float altitude_sea = (pos.z - llWater(ZERO_VECTOR)); if (altitude_sea > 0 ) { llSetVehicleFloatParam( VEHICLE_HOVER_HEIGHT, 0 ); llSetVehicleFloatParam( VEHICLE_HOVER_EFFICIENCY, 0 ); llSetVehicleFloatParam( VEHICLE_HOVER_TIMESCALE, 10 ); llSetVehicleFloatParam( VEHICLE_BUOYANCY, .977 ); } else if (altitude_sea < 0 ) { llSetVehicleFloatParam( VEHICLE_HOVER_HEIGHT, 0 ); llSetVehicleFloatParam( VEHICLE_HOVER_EFFICIENCY, 0.2 ); llSetVehicleFloatParam( VEHICLE_HOVER_TIMESCALE, 0.4 ); llSetVehicleFloatParam( VEHICLE_BUOYANCY, 1.0 ); } } } I have also installed VICE on the plane via RCX's free installer program, and that process has been a resounding success. So currently the additional scripts installed on the plane's root prim are: RCX VICE+TCS LISTENER VICE Bomb Control v1.2.0 VICE+TCS ALA sensor The following VICE Patch: /** * @author: reconx86 (RCX Productions) * * @license: You are allowed to share this script full-perm with others and even use it in your own projects. * But do not sell the script seperately nor as part of a script package. * * This script is made to make any incompatible mod-vehicle work with VICE. * It's not recommended to use unless you really can't script the vehicle at hand, this script may cause glitches and interfere with the main-script functions. */ integer seated; key owner; integer links; integer prevLinks; default { state_entry() { owner = llGetOwner(); prevLinks = llGetNumberOfPrims(); } changed(integer change) { if (change & CHANGED_OWNER) { owner = llGetOwner(); } if (change & CHANGED_LINK) { integer link_nr; links = llGetNumberOfPrims(); for (link_nr = 0; link_nr <= links; link_nr++) { if (owner == llGetLinkKey(link_nr)) { if (!seated) { llMessageLinked(LINK_SET, seated = TRUE, "seated", owner); } prevLinks = links; } } if (seated && links == prevLinks - 1) { llMessageLinked(LINK_SET, seated = FALSE, "seated", NULL_KEY); } prevLinks = links; } } } I would really appreciate it if someone could help me perfect my seaplane patch script!
