chatable poseball?

[kari1sl]

Can anyone point me to a (modifyable) script that will let me chat to my poseball instead of using a menu?
I have lots of poses and the menus are getting unmanageable.
I'd like to write a script that listens for each pose name, finds the coordinates in a notecard and launches the pose in that position.
But, I don't know where to start. An example would help.

Thanks,

Thanks for the suggestions. I agree I need to get permission and listen. Not a problem. But I don't want to simply launch the animation.
I'd like the string heard to (somehow) read the notecard(s) and launch animation in the perscribed orientation - as if using a menu for poses.
I just don't know how to that. It might not even be possible!

Do you know of anything like that?

you will need a listen, and a run time event...

something like this...(umtested)

 

you may want to add a check to see if the animation is in the poseball's inventory

and an on / off switch to kill the listen, if it is something you will leave lying out.

 

integer listen_handle;string pose; default{    state_entry()    {         // Registers the listen to the owner of the object at the moment of the call.                   listen_handle = llListen(0, "", llGetOwner(), "");    }    listen( integer channel, string name, key id, string message )    {        llStopAnimation(pose);        pose = message;       llRequestPermissions(llGetOwner(), PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION);        }     run_time_permissions(integer perm)    {        if (perm & PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION)        {            llStartAnimation(pose);            llOwnerSay("animation is:  " + pose);                  }    }       }

A good place to start is in a script library: LSL Library or ScriptLibrary
The forum library also has pose ball scripts, say: Basic pose ball script

You will find lots of pose ball scripts, but probably not one that does exactly what you want
So pick one and modify it for your needs

just for practice....you can mod this to fit your needs

wasn't too sure about how you wanted to change the positions...?

 

 integer iLine; integer count; key kQuery; key kQuery2; key kQuery3; integer maxLines; list Heard; string  NC; string Anim; string ItemName; string NCD; string animation; string currAnim;       // Will look for first 2 words chatted: ex: sit sit3, or sit bored
  // the first item is the notecard name, the second is the animation in it (no spaces in either)default{    state_entry()    {        count = llGetInventoryNumber(INVENTORY_NOTECARD);         llListen(0, "", llGetOwner(), "");        animation = "sit";          llSitTarget(<0.0, 0.0, 0.6>, ZERO_ROTATION);    }    touch_start(integer total_number)    {           }     listen( integer channel, string name, key id, string message )    {                       Heard = llParseString2List(message,[" "],[" "]);         NC = llList2String(Heard,0);         Anim = llList2String(Heard,1);               string  ItemName;        integer x;        for(x = 0;x < count;x++)        {                      ItemName = llGetInventoryName(INVENTORY_NOTECARD, x);                      if (ItemName == NC )               {                 NCD = ItemName;                 iLine = 0;                 kQuery = llGetNumberOfNotecardLines(NCD);                 kQuery2 = llGetNotecardLine(NCD, iLine);             }            }               }  dataserver(key query_id, string data)    {         if (query_id == kQuery)       {           maxLines = (integer)data;               }              //_________________________________________________              if (query_id == kQuery2 || query_id == kQuery3)       {                       if (data == EOF)             {                  llOwnerSay("None Found");                 iLine = 0;             }            else            {                                       iLine++;                             if( data == Anim)                 {                      currAnim = data;                      key av = llAvatarOnSitTarget();                      llRequestPermissions(av, PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION);                                                    }                 else                 {                   integer z;                   for(z = 0;z < maxLines;z++)                   {                                                                            kQuery3 = llGetNotecardLine(NCD,iLine);                                                         }                 }             }        }    }    run_time_permissions(integer perm)    {        if (perm & PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION)        {            llStopAnimation(animation);            llStartAnimation(currAnim);               animation = currAnim;            llOwnerSay("Current ANimation: " + currAnim);        }    }            }
