Problems rezzing from phys. objects
Dan Medici Registered User Join date: 25 Jan 2004 Posts: 132	09-14-2004 15:08 Has anyone else had this problem, when trying to rez something like a projectile from a phyical object, sometimes it goes off? For example, I will turn left and shoot the projectiles rapidly, and when I face a certain direction, it rezzes from the left of me, and when I face a certain direction, it rezzes from the right of me. In a certain direction, it rezzes in back of me. I am using llRot2Fwd to find the rezzing vector so can anyone explain what I am doing wrong... OR... If you knew the correct way to rez an object 0.5 meters in front of the avatar when he is moving in a physical script (basically just give me the llRezObject parameters) that would work too... Reguards, Dan Medici
