llSit or something like that

There may already be a feature like this, but none to my knowledge. I created a whoopie cushion (my first scripted object, I'm so proud - thanks to anyone who helped) and realized I wanted a sit command or something. That way it would sound when I sat on it instead of having to click it. It could be used for other items as well.

Still a scripting newb, but I think you should be able to detect a collision and trigger the script that way. It wouldn't be perfect, just running into it would trigger it, but it should work .....

funny thing, if you sit on said object, it can't sense you. kinda sucks.

Actually you could llSensor() and check for avatar center just above you (say less that 0.5m). This would probably work for whoopie cushion. Agree not ideal solution.

I tried to sense an av within 2 m of the block I was sitting on - didn't work - now that I think of it though - I could use a second sensor and...

be back in a few

Let me know if it doesn't work. The AV center should be about at the torso.

Finally got around to looking at it - I could not sense my Av when it was seated. Here is the script:

default
{
    touch_start(integer num)
    {
        
        llSensor("", "", AGENT, 5.0, 2*PI);
        
    }

    sensor(integer total_number)
    {
        llWhisper(0, (string)llDetectedRot(0));
    }
    
    no_sensor()
    {
        llWhisper(0, "Not Detected");
    }
}

and it seems to detect my av fine, unless I am seated.

Logged as bug - thanks!

Won't be fixed in this week's release, but will be fixed in next.
