linked object multi sit

hey all,

i know this is on here somewhere but can't seem to find it.
i have a large build (200+prims) with seating seperate from each other but linked to the main structure.

when i put the sit scripts in the seats then link them (seats aren't root) i can only sit on one seat not any of the three.

Help

Helps to know how you scripting the sits.

This is the script i'm using,

it's in a ball under each seat.

this is a side not part of the same build.

how do i "deploy" an object to a specific position in a region (128, 128, 3500 ) with one command/click/ whatever.

i know it would be similar to the high alt rez script but it only needs to be one way. (UP)

If you have left the script in a pose ball, as your second note says, then there's no problem unless you linked the balls to the build. That's the smart way to do it, because you can adjust the avatar sitting position of each ball without having to monkey with the scripts. On the other hand, if you linked the pose balls or if you put the sit script in each of the seats and linked them, you'll only get one to work at a time. An avatar sitting on an object becomes a member of its link set, and you can't have two avatars linked to the same object. The way to beat the problem (other than not linking the seats) is to use a multi-seat script like MLPV2.

As for your second, unrealted question (which really should have been in a thread by itself ), the answer is Warppos http://lslwiki.net/lslwiki/wakka.php?wakka=LibrarySenWarp

side note again.

in that script (the pose one) is there anything about the camera position as my camera "shifts" about 2m - 3m to the left on sitting.

Depending on whether you have moved your camera before you sit, your point of view may end up behind you or somewhere else. Hit ESC to clear and reset the camera and then use your direction arrows to move it around where you want it.

Hmm i recently needed due to the nature of the build link in a number of poseballs to a 150 prim object, and it worked, so i don't quite understand, Roliq, what you meant by only one would work, as long as avatars sit on the poseballs prims and not some other area of the linkset it does function. I agree in general about mlp or another multi-sit, but that not always possible to use in some builds.

if you're selecting a prim that has a sit target, it should put you in that place, otherwise, i think it goes in the order of the link numbers to decide which sit target to use. not sure if it works the same with/without the pose script. and prims that don't have a sit target set, or removed with ZERO_VECTOR i think are ignored
