Hi All,

Pardon my newb questions - I am just starting to learn LSL and I just need a boot in the right direction.

I've built this big beautiful balloon craft inspired by the one in Lindenville (where the lindens all live). Like the linden air balloon I would like folks to be able to have a seat, activate it, and then travel along a predetermined course.

As a start I was able to use this script to move a single prim using llMoveToTarget
http://www.lslwiki.com/lslwiki/wakka.php?wakka=at_target

Which was easy enough - but when I tried to drop the script into my balloon it generated alot of smoke - but didn't move - I think this may be because of the weight restriction on llMoveToTarget - which is fine - but before I rebuild my whole balloon to fall under the weight restriction - is turning Physics on and using llmovetarget the best way to accomplish what I want to do?

If anyone can point me in the right direction I would appreciate it.

What weight restiction? Do you mean literal smoke like chat particles, or figurative? If it was talking, what was it saying?

HI - is it possible that you can share the balloon scripts please?
