Hardcoded Attachment Points for Objects to be worn

Inspired by [/13/a6/145233/1.html

It would be great if we could have multiple attachment choices for when a user clicks "wear" on an object, for example a pistol, a dialog would pop up with the multiple attachment points the designer of the object created for the object than the usual single attachment point. For example a pistol would be able to be held into a certain rotation and position in the left hand or could be holstered into the proper rotation and position on the right leg.

This can be already done with simple script

list attach_locations = [ ATTACH_RHAND, ATTACH_RHIP ];
list attach_offsets = [ <1,0,0>, <0,0,1> ];

default {
    
    attach( key Contact ) {
        
        if( Contact != NULL_KEY ) {
            // check attachment point
            integer idx = llListFindList( attach_locations, [ llGetAttached() ] );
            if( idx != -1 ) { llSetPos( llList2Vector( attach_offsets, idx ) ); }
            else { llSetPos( ZERO_VECTOR ); }
        }
    }
}

this causes the object to have custom offsets when attached toright hand or right hip, and default position when attached anywhere else. It should be expanded so it doesn't overwrite user preferences, but the basic functionality is there...

Hi.

I just opened a new thread to discuss methods how to optain the local rotation of the root object:
