I'm trying to make a poseball so avatars sit a certain way on my chair. I make the ball, put the script in (one I've seen in a lot of pose balls) then I put a sitting animation in. It works, when my avatar sits it does the animation. Problem is, I had edit and sit on it to rotate it right, then I position it (with avatar sitting) where I want. Stand up. Sit back down, avatar does it no where NEAR the chair! If it does, it's facing the wrong way. How do you properly place a poseball? HELP!! :) :)

Okay just a follow up, I've figured one thing out - no matter what script I put in it, the poseball is not running it! So no wonder my avatar is messing up, it's trying to literally sit *on* the ball...

There is a game bug right now also, puts you in a different place everytime you sit, Ive given up trying to make or place poseballs, Ive had the problem since 1.7 and this new patch has made it happen ALL the time for me.

I know its happening for other people too, a lot Ive spoken to have this problem, yes I have sent bug reports

It is happening to nearly everyone now. And a script makes no difference. The same thing can and does happen when sitting on a plain wooden cube. SOmetimes you sit properly sometimes not. No way to tell when it will work or not. It has been reported and they I am sure are workin gon this as it adversley affects everyone in SL. BUT please send in a bug report anyways. Maybe you noticed something the rest of us didn't :)
