Here's an issue I am trying to figure out. I can be standing in a phantom prim with a script using VolumeDetect and collision_end, and either walk out or TP out within the same sim, and the collision end statement works. If however, I TP out of the sim, it does not.
state_entry()
{
llVolumeDetect(TRUE);
}
collision_end(integer total_number)
{
llMessageLinked(LINK_ALL_OTHERS, num, toggle_message, NULL_KEY);
}
Any ideas why?

Any ideas why? What are you using to TP within the same sim? You are still physically moving with any of the sit hacks, even if it happens so fast that you do not see it. EDIT: Nevermind! I see that it does not matter even if you TP using landmarks. collision_end is called within the sim but not if you TP out. Could find no caveat explaining it in any of the wikis. Looks like you will have to go about it a different route. I take it that this is related to the LM Menu script?

Yes it's for an effect I want to turn off when the person actually tp's out. It does not matter if you use a landmark in inventory or whatever, it still fails. Because there is no way I know of to detect a press of the teleport button on the map, I was using volume detect to trigger.

hmmm just thinking out loud here. collision_begin instead and a timer to see if you are still colliding? Also not sure which would be less laggy; collision or a llSensorRepeat set for 1 meter, triggered by the collision maybe?

Hmm yes I could do a sensor, though I'd prefer a less wasteful technique, I don't know which route would be better. I do use collision begin as a trigger to bring up the menu. Hmm, ponders  |

the collision_start and collision_end seem to only happen for *physical* movement into and out of the prim... I say this because you won't trigger the events if you teleport in or out, use sitting to get in or out, or sit on a prim and move it in or out

Well Day, it does work if you tp out to a location within the same sim, oddly enough.
