set local pos

Is there such an animal? i can get the pos of a prim of a linked set but how do i than positon it.

Thanks for the help

Hi there, llSetPos works locally as well, just place it in a non-root prim and you should be good to go. It sets the position based on the offset to the root prim. For more info check here llSetPos

im using a script on the whole object and need it to move several of the link prims at a single command is it llsetlocalpos(getlocalpos such and such) I'm not sure exactly how it works or the concept

Not sure I'm understanding what your asking. If you can meet me in world atm, maybe I can help you there?

im just heading off to work. Thank you tho ill post at another time soon and explain more.

Im afraid there's no way (currently) to modify the position of all prims in a link set from one script.

You're going to have to have a script in each prim of the link set. To move a prim, you need to send a link message to the script in the prim.

Here's an example:

// Put this script in each prim.
default {
    link_message(integer sender, integer channel, string params, key command) {
        if (command == "setPos") {
            llSetPos((vector) params);
        }
    }
}

Now, to make a particular prim set its position, call this function:

setLinkPos(integer linkNum, vector pos) {
    llMessageLinked(linkNum, 0, (string) pos, "setPos");
}

Hope this helps!
