lDetectedTouch Help Needed

Want to rez a prim at the touched position ... point in the right direction?

//Sets a grid of x by y, in this case 144 squares and returns that number on touch.
float x=12.0;
float y=12.0;
integer Pos;
 
default{
 
    touch_start(integer total_number){
        if (llDetectedTouchFace(0) == -1)
            llOwnerSay("old client");
        else{
            vector pos = llDetectedTouchST(0);
            Pos = ((llFloor((pos.x*10)*x)/10)*(integer)y)+llCeil(pos.y*y);
            llOwnerSay((string)Pos);
        }
            }
}

If you just want to rez something where you touch it, how about something on the lines of

default
{
    state_entry()
    {
       
    }

    touch_start(integer total_number)
    {
       
        llRezAtRoot(llGetInventoryName(INVENTORY_OBJECT,0),llDetectedTouchPos(0),ZERO_VECTOR,llGetRot(),0);
    }
}

You might want to allow for an offset, of course, so the object isn't half-buried. But that's the basic method I use, anyway.

there was a thread on this a couple months or so again i think. i assume you're wanting to change the rez rotation as well depending on the face. with the example given, i was able to rez a sculpted prim, even a complex lattice sculpt, and the "pin" would rez where the sculpty was touch and would be pointing directly into the spot where it was touched

eta: here it is!
