This should be fairly simple, but I can not find an example of it. The script is fairly common, and used when an AV sits on something.

Here is what I am trying to do.

Create a script for when an AV sits on my object, it will say "Hello (AV Name)"

So far all I have coded is 2 failed scripts, one of them (I am using touch_start to test) says the key number of the AV touching it waether or not any one's sitting on the object, and the other spits out the name of the object.

What am I doing wrong?!

here is my latest failed script, which spits out a bunch of 0's

From: someone

key agent = llAvatarOnSitTarget();
llWhisper(0, "Hello " + (string) agent);


this version spits out nothing
From: someone

key aw = llAvatarOnSitTarget();
string as = llKey2Name(aw);
llWhisper(0, "Hello " + (string) as);

The "changed" event is triggered when an av sits on an object.

llAvatarOnSitTarget() will always return a NULL_KEY if there's either no one sitting or if you haven't set a sit target with llSitTarget(). You must set a sit target with a non-zero vector before it'll give you anything.

CODE

default 
{ 
    state_entry() 
    { 
        llSitTarget(<0.1,0.1,0.1>, ZERO_ROTATION);
    } 
       
    changed(integer change) 
    { 
        // something changed 
        if (change & CHANGED_LINK) 
        { 
            // and it was a link change 
            key id = llAvatarOnSitTarget();
            if (id != NULL_KEY) 
            { 
                        string Name = llKey2Name(id);
                        llWhisper(0, "Hello " + Name); 
            } 
        } 
    } 
}
