responding to touches

I was wondering if it is possible to respond to object touches in relation to where the object is touched.

For example i am making a game and at present the scoring system uses four separate prims .

What i want to know is if i can use just one prim divided into four separate areas with each area performing a different action.


Is this possible or will i have to use four prims?

I have seen a roulette table that sort of accomplished this, it had a one prim top and your bet would be decided by where you placed your chips (another prim).

If you were placing a prim on the roulette table, you could use their relative positions to work out where it was.

Unfortunately I don't think touch events give you any information on position, so you'll have to use one prim for each region. If you have a problem lining up textures in the different prims, you could use a base prim as a background, and then invisible prims as buttons on top.

heyas;

if you mean to have a touch event for each different side of a prim, or the top or bottom of the prim, or some arbitrary place on the prim's face (ie a texture) -- then no. you can only touch the 'whole' prim.
