Turret

I am currently building a spaceship which has a couple of turrets.
Each turret is suppose to be controlled by a seat. Currently, it seems that one seat controls ALL of the turrets. Is is possible that only one seat controls one turret? If so, how?

well i dont know how your doing it but i will ASSume your using link messages
i would set the sitter an ID and have the turret filter for that ID only

Ok thanks, I will give it a shot.

you can also use a name method

name each seat and turret with a number at the end. ie:

Seat 1
Turret 1
Seat 2
Turret 2
etc.

then for sending the link message, extract the number at the end of the name

integer num = (integer)llGetSubString(llGetObjectName,-2,-1);//used 2 in case you have enough sets to use a double digit number.
llMessageLinked(LINK_SET,num, string, id);

and then in the turret it would be

link message(integer sn, integer n, string str, key id)
{
integer num = (integer)llGetSubString(llGetObjectName(),-2,-1);
if(num == n)//compares the numbers to see if it comes from it's controller
{
do your thing;
}


the other thing is, find out the link number for each turret, and script each seat to send a message to only the turret that corrosponds


edit: another alternative to the name method is to simply put the number in the description field, no having to extract it with llGetSubString, it would just be

integer num = (integer)llGetObjectDesc();
