I am creating a simple swing. It is a rectangular prism (the seat) with two thin cylinders (for the ropes). I got the object made. Now, how do i get the swing to... well, swing? I assume you use a statement that makes things rotate. So how would i do that?
Thanks for any and all help given! |

1. this isn't a free script forum, so if you're wanting someone to give you the script, you need to try products wanted.
2. if you wish to write the script yourself and ask us for help, there's plenty of people here that would gladly help. 3.this topic has actually been covered more than a few times, if you simply search for "swing" in the forums, i can guarantee that you will find the info you need _____________________

the statements you'll want to look at are probably
llGetRot llSetRot I don't recommend other variant methods (but there are some) _____________________

I sell a pretty popular model at my store in Formal Affair East, check my profile picks for a teleport. I am not making this to enjoy (well, I will enjoy it a little ), but I am making it to sharpen my scripting skills. So just buying it would do me little good.@Void, Thank you, I will look at those statements. @Ruthven, If i can't get Void's suggestions to work, I will search the forum for it. Thanks everyone for the help.  |

other helpful hints
llSetTimerEvent for repeating steps llEuler2Rot and DEG_TO_RAD to turns simple degree to rotations myRot.s *= -1; //-- reverses the direction of a rotation added * current is the proper format for adding new rots _____________________

The improved script used all your hints. Anyway thanks for all your help. |

You can also use the tail script from post:
/54/fa/273758/1.html i used that script for a swing and it works great |
