alright, so i am fiddling around with a zany idea, a box that rezzes around you and can either TP you away, or drop you to a secret room. 1 prim is rezzing correctly in the correct Rot, however the 2nd prim is not, and I just dont get it. here are the 2 Rez lines currently in the script, the "1Back" object positions correctly, but the "1Right" does not...
llRezObject("1Back", llGetPos() + <0,1,0>,ZERO_VECTOR,<180,0,180,1>,0);
llRezObject("1Right", llGetPos() + <1,0,0>,ZERO_VECTOR,<0,180,0,1>,0);
if one were facing the rezzing object, the 2nd prim should face long ways left to right
((its a 3meter by 2 meter plank, the 3meter should be left to right))
On rez it does not face that way, it faces the same as the 1st prim, which is correctly placed. Reason the Rot is important is because of movement of the rezzed prims, to give the effect of folding up around you.
IF ANYONE is in world at this time, which is Sunday 3pm game time, I am there, its almost a must see to understand correctly my dilema. Thanks in advance

You should know much about rotation. Quaternion is too hard for me to understand and put down digits directly.
Use "llEuler2Rot(<x, y, z> * DEG_TO_RAD)" for the rotation. _____________________

Rotations are not vectors. Each of the first three numbers spreads 90 degrees across the space between 0 and 1. The fourth number affects the side of the grid it rotates on.
Thus: <0.0,0.0,0.0,1> is 0 degrees <1.0,0.0,0.0,1> is 90 degrees X <0.0,0.0,0.0,-1> is 180 degrees X <1.0,0.0,0.0,-1> is 270 degrees X I hope that helps. _____________________

Hey thanks, I was contacted by a resident, who gave me a script that tells the rotation of a prim, and it helped ALOT, though i WAS reading it as Vector and not Quaternion
(( spelling)) the script did the trick. Everything rezzes correctly now. |

Thanks, Strife. I'm not completely clear on rotations, but most days I get it right on the first try.
And *wow* that was a stupid one to biff... :  hakes head::_____________________
