There are currently three stable poses, sitting, bike-riding, and surfing. We really need some more I think. Here are some suggestions, to help make vehicles much better. Car-driving, with hands on a steering wheel and feet on pedals. Plane flying, with feet normal and hands occasionally reaching foreward to touch a control. Computer Control, sitting down and typing on a computer, looking foreward. Standing computer, same as before, but good for star-trek type console walls. Swimming, holding something in front and kicking your legs would let us make some neat underwater vehicles. Magic Control, make the Yoga Pose into a sitting pose, then we can ride our flying carpets and UFOs in style!

It's a Good Thing.

And I want to open up all the other poses for use while sitting. Some work, some don't. Also, does the floating yoga animation HAVE to be so short? I was making a vehicle that would have looked GREAT with the rider in lotus. I tried to use sit_ground instead, but that's one that doesn't work when sitting.

Wouldnt all of this be solved, but also many many other issues, if they added the ability to design one's own animations?

Relee: I totally agree.

Tiger: Sit_ground will work. I use it to sit on top of my flying Olmec head. Try this:

CODE

llStopAnimation("sit");
llStartAnimation("sit_ground");

Put that in the part of your vehicle script that takes controls and you should have no problem. That method can be used to do any animation when you operate a vehicle, but of course it works best with 'stable" animations and not periodic animations like waving or the yoga pose.

Mezzanine: They will, we just don't know when yet.
