vehicle passenger sit, unsit, and control

Hello,

I've been scripting for about 2 months. Mostly a Franken-scripter. I've been looking around and cant quite find what i need.

How do i script a passenger seat that ask the owners permission for the passenger to board, allows owner to eject a sitting passenger, and also allows owner to pass controls of the vehicle and take controls from a passenger.

any helpful code snippets would be great. thank you

anyone know of any full perm freebies that have those functions?

No, I don't know of any free items that do this.

It is all possible, but varies as to trickiness. Asking for owner permission beforehand and allowing the owner to unsit is fairly straightforward - all that one needs to do is set a listen for commands from the owner, then send a message to the owner whenever anybody sits on the vehicle (in the changed() event) instead of immediately requesting permissions. The llRequestPermissions call would only take place on receiving a response from the owner.

Similarly, the listen() event could respond to the owner saying "unsit" by triggering llUnsit on the av currently on the sit target.

Changing controls would be slightly more sophisticated. You would need to release controls from the sitter when hearing an owner command, then request to take controls from the owner. Note that it's very difficult to actually have a script that controls a remote vehicle that works properly unless you also do a lot of camera scripting.
