emailing vectors for llMapDestination

can you email the sim name and the positions for llMapDestination
if it can be done plz post a example


p.s
i do know how to send and receive emails

The first 3 lines of the email body will always contain the object name, region name and region local coordinates. You can just unstring them and then use them for the llMapDestination target.

llEmail(sometarget, "", llGetRegionName()+(string)llGetPos());

Will email the current location and position.

Using llSubStringIndex(msg, "<" will let you split the message into the region name and vector.

i got that part but i cant seem to work win i click the box it opens the map and goes to 0,0,0
this is the script i am using to get the coordents to llMapDestination
a nother object gets the email and then sends the coordents thew chat to this script

list map = [];

default
{
    state_entry()
    {
        llListen(5789,"",NULL_KEY,"");
        llListen(57891,"",NULL_KEY,"");
    }

    listen(integer channel, string name, key id, string message)
    {
        if (channel == 5789);
        {
         map+=[message];
         
        }

    }
        
        touch_start(integer a)
    {
            llMapDestination(llList2String(map, 0),(vector)llList2String(map, 1),(vector)llList2String(map, 1));
            map=llDeleteSubList(map, 0, 0);
           
    }
    }

without seeing the other bit, the only thing i happen to eyeball atm is

map+=[message]; 

im not even shure if that would cause a problem but i usually use map+=message;

to me map += message; adds a string element to a list

map += [message]; trys to add a list inside of a list, which i dont think will work, thus loosing your data

but again i could be totally wrong .. im not uber

No, that is the correct way to add elemnts to a list.

However,l there's way too little information to tell from that code.

What format is your other object chatting in?

What is the listen for 57891 for, or is that a typo and your problem?

How are you ensuring your vector comes through after your region name (assuming you expect the first listen to be region name and the second the vector).

Why are you deleting the first sublist, which I assume is the region name? The second touch will then give you the coordinates first, and the next region name second.

thanks ill work that into my habbits

If the element in question is /not/ a list variable anyway. If you're adding a string, integer, etc to a list, then you want to use the brackets. If you're adding two lists togther, then don't use the brackets or you'll get a Script Run-time Error: Lists may not contain lists.

Er yeah, what Kayla said as well, but I assumed someone adding an item to a list wouldn't try and turn a list into a list of lists.
