Object that animates another AV

Hi,

Can anyone guide me to a script snippet that allows me to attach an object to myself and type a "/kiss (AVNAME)" command that would animate another AV. Is it it possible to have multiple commands such as "/kiss (AVNAME)", "/hug (AVNAME)"...etc?

Thank-you

I believe this is how to do it... note this uses /1 kiss Avatar Name

string animation = "stand"; // Animation name here!
g_listener = FALSE; // Listen handler
default
{
     state_entry()
     {
           llListenRemove(g_listener); // For the heck of it
           g_listener = llListen(1,"",llGetOwner(),"");
     }
     on_rez(integer total_number)
     {
           llListenRemove(g_listener); // For the heck of it
           g_listener = llListen(1,"",llGetOwner(),"");
     }
     listen(integer chan, string str, key id, string msg)
     {
           if(llToLower(msg) == "kiss")
                 llSensor(llDeleteSubString(msg,0,4),"",AGENT,20,TWO_PI);
     }
     sensor(integer total_number)
     {
           llRequestPermissions(llGetOwner(),PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION);
           llRequestPermissions(llDetectedKey(0),PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION);
     }
     run_timer_permissions(integer perm)
     {
           // Uncomment if this is a looping animation
           // llSetTimerEvent(5.0); 
           if(perm)
                  llStartAnimation(animation);
     }
     timer()
     {
           llStopAnimation(animation);
           llStopAnimation(animation);
     }
}

Thanks so much for the quick reply! I did have a problem compiling it however...

This line:

g_listener = FALSE; // Listen handler

seems to be generating errors

Ok I solved the little issues. I place an animation in the object, rename the string and attach the object to myself. I type /kiss (AVNAME) and it doesn't do anything

Any thoughts?

string animation = "hand_chest"; // Animation name here! 
integer g_listener = FALSE; // Listen handler 

default 
{ 

     state_entry() 
     { 
           llListenRemove(g_listener); // For the heck of it 
           g_listener = llListen(1,"",llGetOwner(),""); 
     } 
     on_rez(integer total_number) 
     { 
           llListenRemove(g_listener); // For the heck of it 
           g_listener = llListen(1,"",llGetOwner(),""); 
     } 
     listen(integer chan, string str, key id, string msg) 
     { 
           if(llToLower(msg) == "kiss") 
                 llSensor(llDeleteSubString(msg,0,4),"",AGENT,20,TWO_PI); 
     } 
     sensor(integer total_number) 
     { 
           llRequestPermissions(llGetOwner(),PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION); 
           llRequestPermissions(llDetectedKey(0),PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION); 
     } 
     run_time_permissions(integer perm) 
     { 
           // Uncomment if this is a looping animation 
           // llSetTimerEvent(5.0); 
           if(perm) 
                  llStartAnimation(animation); 
     } 
     timer() 
     { 
           llStopAnimation(animation); 
           llStopAnimation(animation); 
     } 
}

Time to fix this.

First, a script can only hold the permissions on one av at a time. So to get this to work you would need two scripts (one a slave script).
Second, the listen is borked

Ohh, please tell me how to do this

What do you want for a quick, untested hack?

1) integer g_listener, yes.
2) Fixed the listener to llSubStringIndex, as it should have been.
3) One permission per script? No kidding. Easy to solve.
4) Fixed listener from "str" to "name." Too many link messages.

string animation = "stand"; // Animation name here!
integer g_listener = FALSE; // Listen handler
default
{
     state_entry()
     {
           llListenRemove(g_listener); // For the heck of it
           g_listener = llListen(1,"",llGetOwner(),"");
     }
     on_rez(integer total_number)
     {
           llListenRemove(g_listener); // For the heck of it
           g_listener = llListen(1,"",llGetOwner(),"");
     }
     listen(integer chan, string name, key id, string msg)
     {
           if(llSubStringIndex(llToLower(msg),"kiss") != -1)
                 llSensor(llDeleteSubString(msg,0,4),"",AGENT,20,TWO_PI);
     }
     sensor(integer total_number)
     {
           llRequestPermissions(llDetectedKey(0),PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION);
           llMessageLinked(LINK_SET,0,"hugged","");
     }
     run_timer_permissions(integer perm)
     {
           // Uncomment if this is a looping animation
           // llSetTimerEvent(5.0); 
           if(perm)
                  llStartAnimation(animation);
     }
     timer()
     {
           llSetTimerEvent(0.0);
           llStopAnimation(animation);
     }
}

And script numero dos:

string animation = "stand"; // Animation name here!

default
{
     link_message(integer sender, integer num, string str, key id)
     {
            if(str == "hugged")
                  llRequestPermissions(llGetOwner(),PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION);
     }
     run_timer_permissions(integer perm)
     {
           // Uncomment if this is a looping animation
           // llSetTimerEvent(5.0); 
           if(perm)
                  llStartAnimation(animation);
     }
     timer()
     {
           llSetTimerEvent(0.0);
           llStopAnimation(animation);
     }
}

Hmph.

Note that this is still untested. Let me know if it has any further problems.

Hi Jeffery,


Thanks a lot, hack or not the script works great. Just two more usage question if you have time.

1) If I have a looping animation and I, or the other Avatar, wanted to type stop the animation with a command such as "/1 stop" how would I do that?

2) If I wanted to have more than one animation available such as "/1 kiss (AVNAME)", "/1 hug (AVNAME)" ..etc how should that be set-up?

Thanks for your help.

No problem.

     listen(integer chan, string name, key id, string msg)
     {
           if(llSubStringIndex(llToLower(msg),"stop") != -1)
                 llStopAnimation(animation);
     }

     listen(integer chan, string name, key id, string msg)
     {
           if(llSubStringIndex(llToLower(msg),"hug") != -1)
                 llSensor(llDeleteSubString(msg,0,4),"",AGENT,20,TWO_PI);
     }

For the second one, however, you'll need to pass to the sensor what animation you're using. You can do that by simply storing the message as a global variable and going from there.
