Is there any way to allow an avatar to sit on another avatars attachments.


I have seen this done with the pony avatars and I believe there are a few dragon avatars that allow others to sit on their saddles.

The reson I ask is I am making a giant mech avatar which will have a building on it's shoulders. I would like other avis to be able to ride on pose balls placed around the building. When a pose ball is added to the attachments it only brings up the pay option.

How is this done?

No, I don't think so. I made a director's chair as an attachment for my AV once, and the same thing came up...and all answers were "no."

So how do people ride the dragon avatars?

Or is that just some clever use of animations like the couples animations that allow people to fly holding hands?

Things like dragon saddles are vehicles. The dragon rezzes a saddle to the ground and sits on it. The riders then sit on the passenger poseballs.

You can't sit on attachments..

Sorry.. :(

edit: that just put the implementation you were thinking of to bed - you could make your mech a vehicle, just like how the dragons do it.
