llSetPos Question

Is it possiable to make llSetPos go more then 10M per call? Because I am wanting to make something that can go really fast with no-physics. Any help? Thanks

No, a single llSetPos call won't move an object beyond 10m of distance. Use more than 1 maybe ? You can get smooth movement by multithreading 4 continuous setpos loops running in 4 seperate scripts, if they're coordinated correctly.

Or repeat it until it reaches where you want it to move.

vector TargetPos = <"your target's vector">;
while(llVecDist(llGetPos(), TargetPos) != 0) 
{                 
    llSetPos(TargetPos); 
}

Make that

while(llVecDist(llGetPos(), TargetPos) > 0.001)

Comparing floats to zero is not recommended/reliable

Here's how to use multiple scripts to "thread" the movement and make it even faster. In your main script put:

default
{
    touch_start(integer num)
    {
        llMessageLinked(LINK_THIS, 0, "<128, 128, 100>", "go");
    }

    link_message(integer sender_num, integer num, string str, key id)
    {
        if (id == "go") {
            vector TargetPos = (vector)str;
            while(llVecDist(llGetPos(), TargetPos) > 0.001);
            llSay(0, "We're here!");
        }
    }
}

Then add two new scripts and make them both identical to the following:

default
{
    link_message(integer sender_num, integer num, string str, key id)
    {
        if (id == "go") {
            vector TargetPos = (vector)str;
            while(llVecDist(llGetPos(), TargetPos) > 10.000);
        }
    }
}

Basically, when the main script sends the message to "go", all three scripts will start moving towards the destination in tandem. The two helper scripts will drop out of their loops first (when within 10 meters) while the main script will make the final move to TargetPos.

Harris, there's a 0.05 second delay between events like link_message, so adding the 0.2 delay of llSetPos, your example won't be much faster than a looping llSetPos. With one more child script, though, it'll be twice as fast. I've found that using infinite loops in the child scripts to get rid of the inter-event delay works better overall:

main script, just change the scripts names for the secondary scripts

default
{
    touch_start(integer num)
    {
        llMessageLinked(LINK_THIS, 0, "<128, 128, 100>", "go");
    }

    link_message(integer sender_num, integer num, string str, key id)
    {
        if (id == "go") {
            vector TargetPos = (vector)str;
            while(llVecDist(llGetPos(), TargetPos) > 0.001);
            llResetOtherScript("secondary script 1");
            llResetOtherScript("secondary script 2");
            llSay(0, "We're here!");
        }
    }
}

scondary script:

default
{
    link_message(integer sender_num, integer num, string str, key id)
    {
        if ((string)id == "go") {
            vector TargetPos = (vector)str;
            while(TRUE) llSetPos(TargetPos);
        }
    }
}

For smoother looking movement you can even add a little variable delay before the loop in each secondary script, dependant on the script's name (here it is configured for a 4-scripts multithreading over 0.2 second frequency):

default
{
    link_message(integer sender_num, integer num, string str, key id)
    {
        if ((string)id == "go") {
            vector TargetPos = (vector)str;
            llSleep(0.05 * (integer)llGetSubString(llGetScriptName(), -1, -1));
            while(TRUE) llSetPos(TargetPos);
        }
    }
}
