ive been trying to figure this out for a wile now, im having trouble figureing how to tie llDie() into a alt string type of thing, when you go lets say 2500 m above the ground something dies or a input amount by the avatar this is what i got so far and im completly lost, probuly couse ive been sick last few days but im more lost then ever, this is what i have so far ><

CODE

default
{
    state_entry()
    {
llListen(0,"",llGetOwner(),"");        
llSetTimerEvent(0.6);
    }

    timer() 
   {
        vector pos = llGetPos();
        pos = <0,0,pos.z-llGround(ZERO_VECTOR)>;
// not sure what to do now

// owner would go "hight die 500" object will die at 500m ect



any help would do

you want it to move to 500m above ground level then die?

or you want it to die if it goes more than 500m above ground?

if it's the former, when it get's the command, move it up, then call lldie (warpPos would be good for this) no need for a timer.

if it's the latter you need to be checking pos in the timer constantly
if ((llGetPos()).z - llGround(ZERO_VECTOR) > 500){
llDie();
}
//-- not sure if that (llGetPos()).z hack will work, you may need an intermediate variable to store getPos

EDIT: I sometimes have dreams about code, most of the time the dream seems complex, but the code is simple.... other times, the dream seems simple, but the code comes out as something very strange.... like OP's post... get well soon

i got another issue now, i got the alt all fixed and everything but now, i cant seam to make it trigger something, and ejection at the alt here is what i have

CODE


======main prim =========

default
{
    state_entry()
    {
        llSetTimerEvent(0.6);
    }
    timer()
    {
        vector pos = llGetPos();
        pos = <0,0,pos.z-llGround(ZERO_VECTOR)>;
        {
            if (pos.z - llGround(ZERO_VECTOR) > 3000)
            {
                llSetStatus(STATUS_PHYSICS,FALSE);
                llWhisper(0,"ALT Reached EJECTING");
                llMessageLinked(LINK_ALL_CHILDREN , 0, "eject", "");
                llSleep(5);
                llDie();
            }
        }
    }
}

========seat ==========

key sitting;
vector offset = < 0.0, -0.3 , 0.4>;
vector deg = < 0 , 0 , 270 >;
string text = "Sit";

default
{
    state_entry()
    {
        llSetSitText(text);
        deg *= DEG_TO_RAD;
        rotation quat = llEuler2Rot( deg ); //convert to quaternion
        llSitTarget(offset, quat); 
    }
    listen(integer chan, string name, key id, string msg)
    {
        if(msg == "eject")
        {
            llUnSit(sitting);
        }
    }
}

Do you need the person to be ejected?(I don't fully understand what you wrote...)

try

CODE

change(integer changed)
{
if(change & CHANGED_LINK)
{
if(llGetAvatarOnSitTarget() !=NULL_KEY)
 sitting = llGetAvatarOnSitTarget();


Something of that nature to pick up whose sitting.

Going to have to throw a changed/CHANGED_LINK in there to define the key "sitting"

i tried a few diffrent ways and still havent been able to get it

CODE

changed(integer change)
    {
        if(change & CHANGED_LINK)
        {
           key sitting = llAvatarOnSitTarget();
        }
    }
    listen(integer chan, string name, key id, string msg)
    {
        if(msg == "eject")
        {
            llUnSit(sitting);
        }
    }
}

You are using a listen but the other script is sending a link message. You also can not put an event (listen) inside another event (changed). Events go inside states.

CODE

key sitting;
vector offset = < 0.0, -0.3 , 0.4>;
vector deg = < 0 , 0 , 270 >;
string text = "Sit";

default
{
	state_entry()
	{
		llSetSitText(text);
		deg *= DEG_TO_RAD;
		rotation quat = llEuler2Rot( deg ); //convert to quaternion
		llSitTarget(offset, quat);
	}
	link_message(integer sender_number, integer number, string message, key id)
	{
		if(message == "eject")
		{
			llUnSit(sitting);
		}
	}
	changed(integer change)
	{
		if(change && CHANGED_LINK)
		{
			sitting = llAvatarOnSitTarget();
		}
	}
}

90% of the mistakes you make when you are 1st starting are simple ones. It gets both better and worse as you learn and progress into longer, more complicated scripts that intersact with other scripts :) That is when the value of putting in debugs to see where the problem is occuring comes in handy. In you set of scripts you could have put in llOwnerSay's in a few strategic spots to see if the link message is being sent, if the listen event was recieving and the key of the sitting av was known. It still wouldn't have helped with some of the problmes but t would have narrowed it down.
