First off, I've been having some strange problems with saving scripts; specifically, changing a single tau value (in a llMoveTo thing). I changed it from 0.2 to 0.26, which caused it not to work at all. Seeing as how it didn't work anymore, i changed it back to 0.2, but still it didn't work (i waited until it said "save complete";). I had to take it, and then bring it back from my inventory to make it work again. Why is this?

Also, the problem i was trying to work with earlier on, was with tau values. I don't really understand what they relate to anyways (other than the speed at which an object will damp, or something like that)...At present, my object is moving far too fast (it's maybe 1/6 the size of standard avatar).

Erm, and sorry for all the questions, but it's possible to animate an object while it's moving, right (and thus simulating an actual process, like walking)? Would one need to create a structure from scratch in another app (like Poser), and then animate it, or what? I'm very inexperienced at any sort of model animation, although i've been modeling in max for a bit now.
