Making a playground slide..

Hiyas!

I'm trying to build a corkscrew type playground slide, and of course the hard part is to actually be able to slide down it. I tried messing around with physics, but that ended up being too jerky and the constant bumping into the sides of it is annoying.

Is there reasonable way to have a prim follow the path of another prim? I'm assuming that's how things like roller coasters work, etc.. but don't see any obvious way to code it (ie: what functions I should be looking at). I'm not asking for a script, unless there was a freebie.. just simply point me into the right direction.

Thankies!

Teddy.

You could use llMoveToTarget() in a sensor() event;

Hmm.. interesting idea. I'll look into it.. thankies!

Just from the function name, it sounds like a point A to point B move, which with a corkscrew type slide, may mean alot of sensors, but I'll look into it to find out what the function does.

Thanks again!
