ive see the poofers that work on flight and thats something what i want
but an attachment when an av moves just springs out a few particles on movement.
I dont think i can grasp what I need to do to make it.
I have the particle parameters made but unsure how to make it detect movement to set it off
Thanks

You'll need to use a timer (llSetTimerEvent() and the timer() event) and check llGetAgentInfo() for the appropriate flags to know when to turn them on and off again.

moving_start, and moving_end have worked consistently for me for flight effects. changed_region is usually good for poofers.

I have had some issues in the past with moving_start and moving_end not firing, so I stopped using them. Maybe they have fixed it finally, though.
ETA: JIRA on the issue: http://jira.secondlife.com/browse/SVC-1004 |

From my experience moving_start() and moving_end() only work reliably when the script is in the root prim. If your script is in a child prim, you may or may not get them, it's erratic at best.

the moving events tend to behave better in attachments, including the caveat to use the root, at least for flying (though stop doesn't trigger when you are drifting down, and doesn't play well with some flight assists) in physical objects... meh.
