I'm scripting something that requires the change stand to only be called when one avatar is sat on the root prim, Child prims can also be sat on but I DONT want it to activate the change when they do?

Is there a way to block those prims from passing theres someone sitting/standing on them? or even a way to get the number who are sitting? so I can block out more than one?

the number sitting av is
llGetNumberOfPrims() - llGetObjectPrimCount( llGetKey() );

their link numbers start at
llGetObjectPrimCount( llGetKey() ) + 1;

IF you have a sit target set for a specific prim, you can find the first avatar to sit on that prim by comparing their location to the sit offset, the one that matches, is the one on that prim first (or most recently since the av occupying that spot left)

technically avs aren't seated on a particular prim, they are seated on the object, but a prim may provide targeting in the form of a sit target...

From the wiki http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LlGetNumberOfPrims ......

CODE

//Returns the number of agents on the object
integer GetNumberOfAgents()
     {//count avatars
         return llGetNumberOfPrims() - llGetObjectPrimCount(llGetKey());
     }


ETA: Um... what she said. :p

llAvatarOnSitTarget() will only return something if there is an avatar sitting on the prim that is running the script that is calling llAvatarOnSitTarget. So you can have a dozen avatars sitting on other prims, jumping on and off, and changed() in the root prim can still find out if someone is sitting on the root prim.
All the prims and all the avatars get linked into one prim list, so you may have to search that list if you need to know the link number of a particular avatar.
