I have what i thought was a simple thing to do. On my SIM i have. a moving platform (with a seat) and i want to to move round the edge of the sim all the time, so point 1 to point 2, point 2 to point 3, point 3 to point 4 and back to point 1 and then again eternally.... I would like the ability to pause at a stop for a few seconds... but thats not a show stopper I have tried some tour scripts but they are over complicated i think for what i need, and they are old and very badly explained. Any advice, suggestions or point me in the right direction (its driving me mad) Thanks

I have an object and if I place it on the floor and touch it, my script works perfectly, opens a dialog with several options, as expected However, if i attach the object to my Avatar, it does not respond when touched, do i need a different touch command or am i missing a simple thing? thanks a lot Joanie

thank you both, cache cleared, re logged and all is good again. Much appreciated She is back

Hi, am on iMac, and think graphic driver is up to date, will check, where is empty cache?

This is totally new issue for me, an avatar has a pixelated face, but only to me, and i am on latest firestorm, and ultra quality (changing this has no effect) (pic attached) Any suggestions please?

Hi, I have what i though would be simple, a chair, you sit on it and you get a dialog menu, with choices to eat, chat, slide chair in or out. However, once you have chosen an option after sitting, the dialog menu disappears and you can not get it back, i tried adding it to the Touch_start bu this has no effect. Can somebody help me out, my script is a bit 'rough' but it almost works. The goal is a seat you can sit on and then use dialog box to change animations, slide chair in and out, and then when you stand to lose dialog box. My script key gSitterId; integer gDIALOG_CHANNEL = -318; string gACTION_PROMPT = "What do you want to do?"; string gCurrentAnimation = ""; string displayName; integer chairPos; default { state_entry( ) { llSitTarget(<-0.32,0.0,0.3>,llEuler2Rot(<0,0,90>*DEG_TO_RAD)/llGetRot()); } touch_start(integer total_number) { llResetScript( ); llDialog( gSitterId, gACTION_PROMPT, [ "Eat", "Eat Slow", "Chat", "Slide In", "Slide Out" ], gDIALOG_CHANNEL ); } changed( integer change ) { gSitterId = llAvatarOnSitTarget( ); if( gSitterId != NULL_KEY ) { if( llGetPermissions( ) & PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION ) { state sat_down; } else { llRequestPermissions (gSitterId, PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION ); } } else { llResetScript( ); } } run_time_permissions (integer perm) { if ( perm & PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION ) { state sat_down; } } on_rez( integer start_param ) { llResetScript( ); } } state sat_down { state_entry( ) { displayName = llGetDisplayName(gSitterId); llSetText("", < 1, 1, 1 >, 1 ); llListen( gDIALOG_CHANNEL, "", gSitterId, "" ); llDialog( gSitterId, gACTION_PROMPT, [ "Eat", "Eat Slow", "Chat", "Slide In", "Slide Out" ], gDIALOG_CHANNEL ); } listen( integer channel, string name, key id, string message ) { if( message == "Eat Slow" ) { llStartAnimation( "Sit at table 3" ); gCurrentAnimation = "sit at table 3"; llResetScript( ); llDialog( gSitterId, gACTION_PROMPT, [ "Eat", "Eat Slow", "Chat", "Slide In", "Slide Out" ], gDIALOG_CHANNEL ); } else if( message == "Eat" ) { llStartAnimation( "eating4" ); gCurrentAnimation = "eating4"; llResetScript( ); llDialog( gSitterId, gACTION_PROMPT, [ "Eat", "Eat Slow", "Chat", "Slide In", "Slide Out" ], gDIALOG_CHANNEL ); } else if( message == "Chat" ) { llStartAnimation( "Chat" ); gCurrentAnimation = "Chat"; } else if( message == "Slide In" ) { llSetPos(llGetPos() + <0,0.8,0>); llResetScript( ); } else if( message == "Slide Out" ) { llSetPos(llGetPos() + <0,-0.8,0>); llResetScript( ); } } changed( integer change ) { gSitterId = llAvatarOnSitTarget( ); if( gSitterId == NULL_KEY ) { llResetScript( ); } } on_rez( integer start_param ) { llResetScript( ); } } Thank you so much in advance Suzie

All working , thank you everyone

Hi Innula, it works! i didn't have all permissions on the broom... duh! thank you so much SQ

Hi thanks thats really helpful, however, i think it's a bit beyond my capability right now, so will come back to it, when it makes more sense. thank you though the help is very much appreciated SQ I removed all the code from my floor prim and just lef thtis string displayName; integer iBroomChannel = -12169814;//change this for a long random intger of your choice string strCommand = "cleaning"; default { state_entry() { } collision_start(integer count) { key avatar = llDetectedKey(0); displayName = llGetDisplayName(avatar); llRegionSayTo(llDetectedKey(0),iBroomChannel, strCommand); llRequestPermissions (avatar, PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION); } } But that just ask for permissions, i really cant get my head round this topic. maybe i will just leave the annoying ask boxes coming up after all

Hi All, I am sure you are all very experienced, and mean to help, but some of us are not experienced at all, and are just finding our way. So please bare with us. This is the scenario. I have an AVATAR and they Have a BROOM attached to them, the BROOM has no scripts, no animations, no nothing. When the AVATAR collides with another PRIM on the floor, it has a script in it and also an animation, and this collision asks permission to animate the AVATAR, then the AVATAR animates and the script continues.... Are you saying the animation should be in the BROOM, and if so how please, this is all new to me, i have not looked at permissions etc before, so please "be gentle" Thank you

Thanks Wulfie, i have looked around and can not see how i would do that, can you tell me how do i do that please?

Hi, I have created 20+ chores within a household, and the person doing them has to have a certain item attached, and then they collide with a prim, and the chore starts, it has an animation as part of it, ie sweeping, or polishing etc. Can i make it so it does not ask every time for their permission to animate avatar, as its always the same people and when you clean a whole house being asked 20+ times can get annoying? Thank you

ok thanks, I have managed to do it, using Lists

Hi, Hi, I am trying to convert some code I have, so that I can use it in SL for a game I am making (still), but the code I use has an array Value( ) which I set value(nRemaining) = i + 1; But I can't seem to use an array in SL, how would I do this, as I need a value for value(1), value(2), value(3) etc etc so I can use later in script while (binary > 0) { if (binary % 2 == 1) { sum += value(whichTile); } binary /= 2; whichTile++; } validMove = (sum == diceTotal);

Hi The spinning drum failed and it has been officially binned... so back to a 'simple' dice throw I have written the code for a dice... I am making the dice non physical, raising it 3 metres and then dropping it, (as you cant seem to throw a physical prim UP) when it finally stops I want to see what is face up, it tells me three times currently, I have tried using its relative height and all sorts, but if anyone has a dice rolling script or anything then I am happy to use that, as this has finally beaten me. All mi want to do is write the rest of the game...... yours, defeated and deflated Suzie rotation rot_xyzq; integer Dice1; default { touch_start(integer i) { llSetPrimitiveParams([PRIM_PHYSICS, FALSE]); vector xyz_angles = <0,45.0,45.0>; // This is to define a 1 degree change vector angles_in_radians = xyz_angles*DEG_TO_RAD; // Change to Radians rot_xyzq = llEuler2Rot(angles_in_radians); // Change to a Rotation llSetRot(llGetRot()*rot_xyzq); //Do llSetPos(llGetPos() + <0,0,3>); llSetPrimitiveParams([PRIM_PHYSICS, TRUE]); Dice1 = 0; } moving_end() { { vector vPosTest;vPosTest = llRot2Up( llGetRot() ); if (llFabs( vPosTest.z ) > 0.5) { if (vPosTest.z > 0) {Dice1 = 2;} else{Dice1 = 4;} } else { vPosTest = llRot2Left( llGetRot() ); if (llFabs( vPosTest.z ) > 0.5) { if (vPosTest.z > 0){Dice1 = 1;} else{Dice1 = 6;} } else { vPosTest = llRot2Fwd( llGetRot() ); if (vPosTest.z > 0){Dice1 = 5;} else{Dice1 = 3;} } } llOwnerSay((string)Dice1); } } }
