100% damage upon bumping object script?

Is there a way to make a script so that when an avatar touches an object "such as a door" the avatar is dealt full damage and is killed/ teleported back home?

That seems like a nasty thing to do, but there's always llTeleportAgentHome (http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LlTeleportAgentHome).

If you actually want to "kill" the avatar on a damage-enabled parcel rather than just tp him or her home, you need to take a look at http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LlSetDamage . As you will see, damage is only inflicted by a physical object with llSetDamage enabled striking the avatar (a bullet or an arrow, for example).

So touching the door won't do anything, but I guess it could trigger a booby trap that shoots something at the victim or drops something on his head or whatever. Then, if the object you drop on him is set to inflict 100% damage, he's had it.

In the Jessie sim there is an electric fence that 'kills' you and sends you home if you touch it, but your saying that's not so and that they must be using one of the two methods mentioned above?

Well, the wiki says, of llSetDamage, so unless the wiki is completely wrong, this fence must do something of the sort.

I made a landmine that teleports people home who step on it.

Never had any use for it tho.

Reading that, it looks like all they had to do was make the fence physical on damage enabled land. An avatar colliding with it should work the same as a physical object colliding with avatar. The fence would of course llDie, but would just have to be rezzed again. They might have even had an alpha block rezzed around the fence to act as the collision barrier/kill prim.

As far as the teleporting home. If my memory serves me, this happens automatically when you die from damage.

Have never played with it in world over the years thou as I was never interested in that sort of thing. (Now orbiting would be a different story )

Here you go from the olddddddddddddddd wiki mirror under damage:

"Damage
On land parcels with the damage option enabled, avatars can be damaged and killed (which simply teleports them to their home location, similar to llTeleportAgentHome)."

"Damage is inflicted when the avatar collides with a physical object that has a damage percentage set (using llSetDamage)."

Ah.. I think we are cross purposes. When the OP said, "touches an object," I took it as meaning "left clicks it" rather than "brushes against it". Because touches wouldn't trigger collision events, would they?

So I think, if you're trying to make a trap that kills someone when they try to open a door, you need to do something like make the door rez a physical object that collides with them (or with which they collide). I don't think just touching the door can be lethal, though it could, of course, teleport the victim home.

I wasn't disagreeing I was just looking for clarification, thanks.
