I have torn both the wiki and the forums apart and can not find a way to teleport myself home in a script. Can someone point me to where I am missing the instructions? llTeleportAgentHome(myid) doesnt work even when I am on land I own. (just for fun when a particular avi says something I want to jump away without worrying about where I may land, so teleport home is the best answer. I can get the script to respond when the give avi speaks the words, but I just sit there with a message "teleporting home" spoken on a private channel I am listening to with my multigadget)

I also eagerly await the non map teleport to get between any two points in the world using a scripted device listening to a private channel (I.E. I want to have a ring I can say "/33 home" or "/33 apartment" etc. and go where I want without the map hassles currently required), which would solve both problems in one sweep

has anyone figured out an effective way to scriptably move between any two points on the world without the map popup llMapDestination() offers.

Finally is there ever going to be an easy way to get and agent id from an avi name? searches turn up lots of ways to do it but none as simple as llKey2Name()

Instant teleport? Currently, no.

llTeleportAgent was in the 1.8 release notes, but we didn't get it. Who knows when/if we ever will. I can't think of any logistical reason why why can't have it already since you have to get permissions before being able to use it, so there must be a technical reason why it hasn't been added yet. http://secondlife.com/badgeo/wakka.php?wakka=FutureRevisions

Unfortunently, we probably won't ever be getting a llName2Key function. :(

The only reason I could think of that caused llTeleport to be pulled so abruptly would be if they couldn't limit where we could teleport with it. If they haven't figured out a way to keep us off private SIMS or out of the teen grid or something.

Other than that if your going around clicking on stuff and accepting it doing stuff to you, then you deserve what you get LOL..
