How Do I Override Sit Command?

Hello,

I've noticed there' s a command to override the "Sit" text that appears when someone right clicks an object, but I don't see a command or event that handles when they actually click the Sit placeholder.

I've seen diving boads where, when you right-click them, you can dive off the board, so I know it's possible.

I can't use the touch event because that's reserved for something else.

I don't want them sitting on the object; I want, when that option is selected, to run some code I fill in.

What do I do?

Basicly you want to do something like this.

// When an avatar sits on the object containing this script,
// the object will say "Get off!" and then force the avatar to stand up.
default {
    state_entry() {
        llSitTarget(<0, 0, 0.1>, ZERO_ROTATION); // needed for llAvatarOnSitTarget to work
    }
    
    changed(integer change) { // something changed
        if (change & CHANGED_LINK) { // and it was a link change
            // llSleep(0.5); // llUnSit works better with this delay <<< This comment is probably incorrect now!
            if (llAvatarOnSitTarget() != NULL_KEY) { // somebody is sitting on me
                llSay(0, "Get off!");
                llUnSit(llAvatarOnSitTarget()); // unsit avatar
            }
        }
    }
}

C&P from a temp lsl wiki

As far as i know you can't really prevent sit, only stop it quickly. What the diving board does, is sit the av on a position and then override it with a diving animation.

If you want different options on a touch you could look into llDialog

Well ... the "Sit" option in the pie menu is just a default. You can override this by means of a script - best put in state_entry - and the command is llSetSitText("Put your text here".

You are limited to just a few letters, though.

This is just, however, changing the text. So if you do a bed and change the text to "Sleep" the avatar will still sit on it. To make the avatar actually sleep, additional code is needed - usually the sitting animation is stopped and a custom animation is played.

If you'd be a bit more precise what you actually want to do further help would sure be incoming.

key agent;


default
{
state_entry()
{
//Your prompt here
llSetSitText("Your Text Here";

}

on_rez(integer num)
{
llResetScript();
}


changed(integer change)
{

if (change & CHANGED_LINK)
{
agent = llAvatarOnSitTarget();
if ((agent != NULL_KEY)
{
llRequestPermissions(agent, PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION);
//stop sit animation and replace with your own this one turns you 180 degrees
llStopAnimation("sit";
llStartAnimation("turn_180";
//you probally want to add a sleep here
llUnSit(agent);
}

}
}


}

default
{
state_entry()
{
llSitTarget(<0, 0, 0.1>, ZERO_ROTATION);
llSetSitText("Your Text Here";
}

changed(integer change) { // something changed
if (change & CHANGED_LINK)
{ // and it was a link change
// llSleep(0.5); // llUnSit works better with this delay <<< This comment is probably incorrect now!
if (llAvatarOnSitTarget() != NULL_KEY) { // somebody is sitting on me
llRequestPermissions(llAvatarOnSitTarget(), PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION);
//stop sit animation and replace with your own this one turns you 180 degrees
llStopAnimation("sit";
llStartAnimation("turn_180";
//you probally want to add a sleep here before unsiting
llUnSit(llAvatarOnSitTarget());
}
}
}
}
