I'm using the "Simple Car Script V1.0" to script a 1953 Chevy Pickup Truck that I built, photo below. The truck works sell in most regards, the only significant problem I had is controling how the passanger sits in the vehicle. If the passanger clicks on the bucket seat it self to sit, it works fine (see script below). But if the passanger clicks someplace else on the truck to sit, after the driver is seated, they end up in the middle of the vehicle facing the driver with thier legs in the drivers lap.

I know I have been in some vehicles where the passanger is seated properly no matter where they click to sit on the vehicle. Can anyone tell me how this is controlled?

//clip from Simple Vehicle Script sit text.
default
{
state_entry()
{
llMessageLinked(LINK_ALL_CHILDREN, 0, "stop", NULL_KEY);
llCollisionSound("", 0.0);
llSetSitText("Get in";);
llStopSound();
llSetTimerEvent(0.0);
speed=0;
llSitTarget(<0.1, 0.35, 0.6>, <0,-0.2,0,1>;);
llSetCameraEyeOffset(<-5.0, 0.0, 2.5>;);
llSetCameraAtOffset(<0.0, 0.0, 1.0>;);

I think it has something to do with which order the objects are linked in.. So link all the ones that don't matter first, then the passenger seat(s) and then the drivers seat.. I should think you can use a sit target script in the passengers chairs to make them sit where you want..

Zap's more or less right. Link numbers run in reverse order to selection number (at least I think that's right, it's been a while since I checked and I didn't do so exhaustively), and if there are multiple prims with sit targets in them they get used in link number order.

So basically if you make your driver's seat the root prim or similar for a two seater ANY other prim should then work as the next sit target.

I suspect, for the sake of neatness, it's worth doing them at the end in reverse order, but it's up to you.
