I'm having a weird problem with teleporting.
1) I'm trying to set up a teleport to a platform less than 25M from a deck (YES, it's in the same sim). I'm careful not to change the orientation of the 'globe' containing the script, and I've used several different means to determine the coordinate location (all of the X,Y,Z values are very close to each other.)
The destination IS about 10M BELOW the origin.
I've tried 3 different scripts. Doesn't work! Leaves me about 15M high in space. Any Ideas?
2) Is there any way to teleport MORE than 300M?
THANKS!!

1) vector global_target //=<some vector>;
update() { llSitTarget((global_target - llGetPos())/llGetRot, <0,0,0,1>/llGetRot()); }
default { state_entry() { llSetSitText("Teleport"); update(); } on_rez(integer a) { update(); } changed(integer a) { key b=llAvatarOnSitTarget(); if(b!=NULL_KEY) { llUnSit(b); update(); } } }
2) no comment

2) No, there is no way to "sit-teleport hack" your way past 300m from the starting postiion. However, there are other methods of moving people...
1. Physics Elevators (good to about 528m). 2. Non-Physical Elevators (requires that people sit on a prim and the prim moves) 2. Jetsons-like "suction tubes". People enter the tube, jump, and are launched through a series of straight and bent tubes to their destination. Give some a try at the MegaTower in BonnyDoon.

Set the rotation of the globe to 0,0,0.

It is possible to make a sit tp go for a distance larger then 300m but how i won't say (yes it's legal and no it's not a hack).

Just one little TIP of the trade.
Get naked before attempting any teleport this week and next.
OR you're not going anywhere.

From: Lynn Lippmann Get naked before attempting any teleport this week and next. LOL going to telehubs for a peepshow The reason i won't say more on the issue is that there is an associated bug that does *bad* things. The bug was introduced with SL 1.5.0 Q: how far do you go if you set the sit target to <295,295,295>? (round the answer to the nearest whole number) a) 295m b) 300m c) 511m d) 0m FYI don't use a sit target greater then 511m

From: Hank Ramos 2) 1. Physics Elevators (good to about 528m). I took my phys elevator to 4000m. course it was a sit elevator (still physical). I did stand up at the top and it didn't return.

Give some a try at the MegaTower in BonnyDoon. How was that created? Is there a script for that? I tried to create an invisible platform to push up through a tube, but it was not physical, so it went right through people.

The skydiving elevator in Abbotts goes to any height up to 4000m. It sometimes goes missing mysteriously. It just occurs to me now that it might be getting nuked by for being so high up without anyone sitting on it.
