height event

think we could get a height event? the call would be llCheckHeight(float height). once it reached the height, it would trigger the event?

Secondondondedededed....

although, i'm sure you already knew this, but checking the Z position has the same effect (but I know you're probably asking for "height above the land" not "height above sea level" so I'm seconding your motion)

I like this one too. How about a llCheckCoordinates(float x,float y,float z) where we could use a NULL in place of x and y to achieve what Nada mentioned?


Edit:

then again, not sure what this would be useful for. And, I forgot that Nada wants to use this for above ground height. Nevermind.

But I do like the height above ground event idea.

heh course i know that dave! sides, there is away to check about the ground, llGround(vector offset) gets you the height of the ground, which you then subtract from the your llGetPos(), to determine the height of your object above the ground. oh and sea level isn't 0... unless they changed it... gonna have to check that though.

edit-oh, i agree with ope's suggested improvement

Sea Level's about 18. 0 is the lowest you can sink land under the ocean.

I have a check in my game down in my basement at X-Caliber that kills the ball if you leave the game (which is underwater). I'm currently checking to see if Z is 18 or higher.

I thought sea level was 20? but you konw its sim specific right? The new sim that has the old west town and indian village has a significantly lower sea level than other places.

i just thought of an easy way to do this. Under the changed event, could we get a a new constant? CHANGED_POS.

yeah, or allow the target event to be constrained to a plane. You could play round with the move_start/_end events - but thats only good if you are starting or finishing moving I guess.

BB...C

i still want to be able to lock an objects movement along the axis, via a llSetStatus() flag, but that is only slightly related
