I thought I had it, but I don't... I'm not a scripter, but a builder - and I can't figure out, for the life of me, how to make something rotate and then stop on touch.
Help?

llTargetOmega is your friend  llTargetOmega(vector axis, float spinrate, float gain) use something like this:
integer rotating;
default{
state_entry()
{
rotating = FALSE; // initialize the rotating status
}
touch_start(integer total_number)
{
if(rotating == FALSE)
{
// start the rotation (in this example around z-axis)
llTargetOmega(<0,0,1>, 1.0, 1.0);
}
else
{
// stop the rotation
llTargetOmega(<0,0,0>, 0, 0);
}
}
}

heyas;
stopping target omega is bugged. still. it's in the jira, and supposedly they're working on it....
in the meantime, i hope stopping the rotation wasn't mission critical for you :/ if it is, you might want to look into rotating your object with actual rotations. it's not as easy, and i think it turns out a bit choppy, but i've seen it done. there's a sewer rattie that uses it, and barney boomslang's tiny dirigible uses it on the propeller. (those are both freebies you can look at.)

According to the bug descriptions (the active bug on this is SVC-54, a slightly more detailed description is in the dupe MISC-199), llTargetOmego should work fine if in an unlinked or root prim.
"llTargetOmega(<0.0, 0.0, 0.0>, 0.0, 0.0);
only works when this line is written (or a pre-written script is dropped) in an unlinked or root prim. if placed in a linked child prim, it fails to stop any previous TargetOmega rotations. if the script is written/dropped in an unlinked prim, which is linked AFTERWARDS, it works fine. it also works fine in unliked or linked root prims"
Not true? I'm not inworld to try ...

Hi, Haruki's script should do the trick but ther is a small error in it, you never get to the else branch, cuz rotating is not set to anything else than FALSE! From: Haruki Watanabe llTargetOmega is your friend llTargetOmega(vector axis, float spinrate, float gain) use something like this:
integer rotating;
default{
state_entry()
{
rotating = FALSE; // initialize the rotating status
}
touch_start(integer total_number)
{
if(rotating == FALSE)
{
// start the rotation (in this example around z-axis)
llTargetOmega(<0,0,1>, 1.0, 1.0);
}
else
{
// stop the rotation
llTargetOmega(<0,0,0>, 0, 0);
}
}
}
HTH change it to:
integer rotating;
default{
state_entry()
{
rotating = FALSE; // initialize the rotating status
}
touch_start(integer total_number)
{
if(rotating == FALSE)
{
// start the rotation (in this example around z-axis)
llTargetOmega(<0,0,1>, 1.0, 1.0);
rotating = TRUE;
}
else
{
// stop the rotation
llTargetOmega(<0,0,0>, 0, 0);
rotating = FALSE;
}
}
}
That works definately for me if I put the script in a root prim! |
